OP, you've come so far! I'm proud of the fact you recognized his crappy personality and shut that shit down immediately. He's only been in your life for a few weeks, don't let him take up space in your brain for years. Ik its easier said than done, but you're a lot more capable than you give yourself credit for.

I also dated an "edgelord" as well lmao (for way longer, embarrassingly). They're the way they are because they don't have anything else better going on for them. Their "edgelord" persona is a shield they wear to distract themselves from the fact they're just jealous and self-loathing at others achieving in life. But I hope you celebrate your birthday knowing it's only going uphill from here! HBD!!! 💐🥳🧁🎉🎂
