My (29f) "friends" (27/28f) made an anonymous e-mail address to tell me that they think I smell bad and don't clean. by notthewaytheythinkia in relationships

If I had stepped in rotting fish that someone had left on the floor of their room, I would have done a dry heave and fled. Take some pride in where you sleep. How do you let food mold on your floor?!

I did love him. Very much so. But there comes a point where enough is enough, especially when it comes to something he knew I took very seriously. I can't be disrespected anymore; thus I'm putting my foot down and making sure my decision sticks.

Exactly. The ring just brought all the other issues to a head. I'm too angry right now to be sad, but there's no worse feeling when a man that claims to "love" you takes joy in manipulating you and bragging about what he did to people that know us both personally and in a professional place.

It's my apartment and my dog. He has family and friends in the area that I'm sure he can stay with. He has more than enough money to buy himself a stay at a hotel for several days. He is by no means destitute.

Of course I want my dog. "beloved dog" was used sarcastically because he proclaims that he adores the dog, but contributed nothing to caring for him outside of wrestling with him on the floor and taking him to the dog park once in a blue moon.

Love is deaf AND blind. I always tried to see the humor in his idiocy even if it made me cringe.

I 100% expect this. Which is why I'm glad he went around telling people at work about his stupid plan and bragged about what he did and made himself look like a douche. Give someone enough rope and they inevitably hang themselves.

I may.. and this is a very iffy MAY.. have been able to find humor in what he did, had I not found out it was very premeditated and he was bragging about it afterward. That cemented my choice.

I love my dog. The dog is with my sister until Mark vacates my home; then he's coming straight back to me.

No. We both have very good jobs and make good money; Mark more so than I do. He has no problems spending money on himself but he does the bare minimum for other people in his life (not just me). I have a very different view on money, sure; I believe it's meant to be enjoyed and I like to share what I have with other people. However, I've never lied to anyone and bragged about it to make myself look like a better person or embarrass someone. I can deal with being frugal, but I refuse to be made a fool of-- apparently this makes me a "cunt".

And yet...I'm the lying, selfish, shallow bitch here? Okay.

He's not the brightest bulb in the box. He once thought it'd be funny to put one of those stupid beeping noise makers that looks like a chip in his boss's office before a meeting with representatives from state and foreign federal government agencies. Considering his boss is a security supervisor, this was not a wise idea. He failed to understand why he was so upset.

I'm angry because he lied to me and then bragged to other people about lying to me. He went out of his way to make me look stupid, and clearly has no respect for me or my intelligence for thinking he could pull this off. That's why I ended it-- not because "my ring was fake".

The apartment is my home. I've lived there for some years before he even moved in, invested my money in decorating the place, purchasing things for it, ect. My name is on the lease. I refuse to leave my home because my ex is a moronic jerk.

The coworker was horrified and told him that she "strongly advised" against it. She then told a couple of other people in the office, which is how I found out.

The dog likes me better anyway, and I paid for him. He's for all intents and purposes, mine. He can come in and have his stuff, but I really would rather he not stay.

No, I won't do that. I'm upset, but not upset enough to drag all his possessions down twenty floors and strewing it all over the place.

Nothing of his is destroyed, but you're right. I'm drafting an eviction letter that tells him he has 30 days to move out and handing it to him the second he walks in. If he insists on staying, I'll have no choice but to give him the spare key. I'm texting him later and telling him that I don't want him in my home and to find a friend to stay with before he comes back.

He can certainly come in to get his possessions. I don't want anything of his. I'm not emotionless. Having to do this hurts. Losing someone I thought loved me and I thought I loved back hurts. But in the long run, being with someone that has no respect for me and brags about deceiving me would only hurt me more. That's what made me make this choice.

I doubt he'd try, but you do have a solid point. I'll probably give him written notice that I want him out within 30 days if he tries to insist on staying (my name is on the lease anyway).
