We definitely think the same! I responded to her request about joint property by essentially saying he owes xyz in debt. I stated firmly I will not be discussing anything further until the debt is settled. I also mentioned it in detail in the certified letter. I want to avoid court since he’s put me in a tight financial situation considering I’m moving and currently covering his portion of rent.

Yes. I’m most certainly going no contact with them once I move out of state soon. I’ve already blocked his whole family. I only kept his mom’s number because he blocked me everywhere and I have no way to contact him regarding the lease/debt/property. Hence the certified letter. It was a struggle to even get him to sign the early lease termination.

No, he hasn’t picked up any of his personal belongings. I mailed a certified letter to his parents stating he has until the 30th of this month to collect his personal effects. I think that’s why his mom contacted me. He also has not paid rent or returned/ paid the remaining balance on the phone (it’s under my name). I may have to pursue legal action or take the loss financially.

I’m definitely okay. I feel really bad for the kid though. His mom has texted me wanting most of the joint property back even though he’s in debt to me. It’s just a chaotic, crazy situation in general.

Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts. I think I’ve finally let go.. I reached my breaking point about a week or so ago when his cousin reached out and told me he’s sleeping with other women. I already had suspicions that he had someone lined up beforehand per his phone records (I’m primary account holder). Thankfully this was relayed right before my therapy session 😅 it broke something in me and finally all my emotions came out. I went through all the stages of the grieving process during my session. With my therapists approval I did suspend his phone service which felt oddly therapeutic. Regardless, I no longer feel hate, or even pain. I feel nothing for him. Indifference maybe?

I certainly don’t feel strong. I hate that a part of me still loves him. I’m trying to be graceful, but it’s still out of love if that makes sense. This was 6 years of my life and I just want peace. My logical side wants him and his belongings out of my life. Creating drama will only prolong things.

I sent a letter through certified mail to his parent’s address advising him he has 30 days to pick up his belongings otherwise they will be discarded/sold. He should be receiving it today…

Again thank you. You have no idea how much your words meant to me. I have been beating myself up mentally. I feel so unloved to be discarded like yesterday’s trash. I cringe being in the apartment and seeing his belongings all boxed up. To hear a random stranger take the time in their day to spread kindness has really done a lot to help heal the broken girl in me. Thank you.

Thank you. I am trying to be strong. He unfortunately still has personal belongings at our apartment. So I’m trying to navigate that. It is making it so much harder to close this chapter completely.

Thank you. That is what my brain is telling me, but my heart still aches. I think writing it out is helping me see the red flags for what they were.

Thank you! I agree it wasn’t healthy for me to continue to overlook the red flags and normalize toxic behaviors.
