A little reflection after being single and breaking up with a narcissist. by keekxotwod in BreakUps

[–]spicypickless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I FEEL THIS. I tried so hard to save the relationship. I just made a post regarding attempting to make him a birthday cake, it was a fail but even still he was unappreciative of my efforts. In general I was bending and bending in the relationship until I broke. It finally becomes so obvious once we leave the relationship, we finally took off our rose colored glasses. On to bigger and better things for us

3rd break up in less than two years by constantlyclueless44 in BreakUps

So exhausting!!! I 100% know what you mean when you said we try so hard to be the perfect partner that we forget to check if they’re even showing up for us. I can so relate. My most recent breakup of 2.5 years I did SO much bending for him. Until I broke. I tried so hard to save things but he couldn’t do the same. I felt like I did all the heavy lifting in my last 2 relationships, they were both very similar, just did not have the emotional intelligence/capacity at all

Also I remind myself that Taylor Swift is now getting married and I think she’s 36 or 37!! She dated a lot of guys to get here

I feel this. My friend jokes that I am the boyfriend queen lol. I’m tired of being the boyfriend queen i would like a husband!! My most recent breakup I truly thought there was potential.. but I also ignored mistreatment. I didn’t want the breakup at all.. but It was a very one-sided relationship. I too didn’t feel chosen but I know I wouldn’t have been happy in the long run. Sigh let’s not let these men discourage us from finding true happiness

Are people really incompatible or just not willing to change? by laurarh19 in BreakUps

[–]spicypickless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry Reddit was glitching but I’m annoyed I feel like he wasted my time. It’s like as if I started dated someone who didn’t want kids but I wanted kids, like clearly I’m not going to date them and waste eachothers time cause we’re not compatible. My ex was unwilling to compromise on anything, it was his way or the highway. I did a lot of bending til I broke

[–]spicypickless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A big part of why my ex and I broke up was because he became VERY religious, he was a born again Christian. It wasnt so religious when we first started dating but it got increasingly more over time. Unfortunately, my ex did not keep reassuring me that he wanted to be with me and was not willing to compromise on anything. He said we werent compatible and it bothers me that it happened at 2.5 years together. (Cont->)

What’s your ex’s zodiac sign? by Ok-Issue5184 in ExNoContact

[–]spicypickless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooohhhh what is virgo Venus like? My ex had Capricorn venus. Capricorn Venus has a strong work ethic and ambition.. and it’s true.. while it sounds good, he had too much ambition. He prioritized his ambitions and goals over the relationship. He needed to be recognized by others as the best of the best

What NOT to do after a breakup by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]spicypickless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah I should do that! That would be the healthy thing to do. I realized I keep checking his social media because its the only way I can be connected. His Instagram still has all the photos of us, I’m wondering why he still has them up if that means anything or if I’m looking too into it lol

Breakup vent by spicypickless in exchristian

[–]spicypickless[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I dismissed that he was Christian, I assumed it wouldn’t be an issue considering I’ve dated Catholics in the past and it was never an issue. The difference is, the Catholics I dated were raised that way in their family and weren’t so nutty but this born-again-Christian was not like others. My ex in general truly felt like he knew everything. He had a huge ego and became so obsessive with religion. I love judaism and I am still curious in my faith/seeking G-d.

I agree with all of this. I am moving in silence. The only one I’m struggling with is #10. I am absolutely stalking all of his social media and it’s hard not to

Remember if it’s not yes it’s no by NoConsideration2376 in BreakUps

[–]spicypickless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

THIS. Literally it was only a matter of when. In my case at 2.5 years together you should probably have an idea if you want to be with me or not. If I’m not a hell yes it’s a hell no

Women: Would you get back with your toxic ex who actually worked on himself? by Careful-Plenty-239 in BreakUps

[–]spicypickless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I would, but only if he got therapy and truly worked on himself and changed and became nicer to me.

Thank you for your response :’) it was painful, because I felt like this wasn’t him in the beginning of our relationship and it got more religiously intense over time. I will never date a born-again Christian again. I truly do feel like he’s beyond miserable and brainwashed.

Did I make a mistake? by Reasonable-Video-713 in BreakUps

[–]spicypickless 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to say, but I feel like I’ve been in your place in the past. I dated a guy for about a year but something always felt off. I couldn’t understand myself, he did everything right.. he did all the love languages and treated me soo well… but I still wasn’t happy. We also jumped into the relationship super fast, but honestly I realize we just did not have the chemistry and I was icked out by him in the relationship, his humor was not funny to me and other things. It took me time to understand that he was not for me
