the whole reason why i even reached out was bc they can get to him and i cant bc we’re long distance. my bf’s mad bc he said i “dragged other ppl into our business and our relationship” but the whole reason i even messaged him was so he could make sure my bf was okay bc i was worried abt his safety. i understand his point but at the same time i just wanted him to be okay, but now i realize how much i embarrassed him
thank you all for your advice. ive chosen to leave him, we are no longer good for each other and we both have a lot of healing we need to do. as of rn i have no idea what im doing anymore education wise, so i'll probably stay home and take online courses for at least the first semester before i figure all of my shit out. thank you guys so much i appreciate your words 🫶🫶
I have been in a relationship like that. as much as it hurts, people like that WILL NOT GET HELP while in the safety of a relationship that allows that behavior. Either he needs to make some serious changes to start working on his mental health, or you need to get out of that relationship. I’ll yell it from the rooftops all day every day: YOU ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYONE’S MENTAL HEALTH BUT YOUR OWN!
I went through something similar. In high school I was being groomed by this guy who lived across the country. One day he was saying some alarming things and was talking about 💀 himself so I found his sister online and explained what he was telling me. The next morning this grown man is yelling at me over text while I'm in study hall because he "wasn't going to actually do it".. Except that wasn't why he was mad. He was mad because he wasn't able to manipulate me-
thats another thing he says “im his last chance at life” so if he loses me than he’s losing his life bc he’ll have nothing left to live for (not true at all). he says now he’s embarrassed to bring me around his friends bc they all know “what i did” but again, i only messaged that one to make sure he was okay. i was going to move to his town (out of state) and transfer to their college but now idk if i am anymore or what im even doing.
Nah stop right there. You did nothing wrong. If he didn’t want to be embarrassed then he shouldn’t have said it in the first place. What did he expect you to do? You did the right thing even if he embarrassed himself. Now if his friends didn’t already know now they do that he has mental health issues. It’s a good thing in the long run. Don’t beat yourself up over it. And surely don’t let him make you feel like you are a monster, bad person, or bad girlfriend for this
I dated a guy like that. My first bf, you fall for a lot of things. But it’s just straight up manipulation to make you feel horrible and guilty. That’s why he got mad when you asked a friend to check on him. He’s embarrassed bc he didn’t mean it, and now people think he did. It was a tactic to fuck with your emotions and he’s mad it didn’t work like he planned. My advice is to definitely leave, he most likely won’t do anything especially if he has friends/family to support him
idk 😕. i want to help him bc i love and care abt him but its alr costed a lot of my own mental health and idk how much longer ill be able to take it. i get so worried when he says stuff like that bc ik he WILL end his life. he has a big scar on his forearm alr and has attempted in the past so i dont want to ever push him to that point. in a way i think everyone knows abt his mental health bc of his visible scar, but he’s still pissed off that i dragged other ppl into our issues
he says he has zero trust in me now and thanked me for everything bc even his ex texted him checking in on him. i did try leaving last night bc of how pissed off he was and from all the shit he was saying, but he got more upset when i tried bc he said i was just making things worse but atp how does me staying make the situation any better? im worried he did something to himself last night and i alr unfriended & deactivated all my insta accts so i cant ask his friend anything anymore
Absolutely do not transfer colleges for a man. You need to break up with him, for the reasons that everyone else has stated. If you are concerned that he will harm himself after you do that you can contact one of his friends with something along the lines of “I just broke up with X, please check on him because he has threatened to do X” and then block them. Block your bf when he becomes your ex too.
i dated someone just like this who would also hurt himself at every minor inconvenience or him not getting his way and let me just say the longer you stick around the more it will effect you long term. To this day i still have panic attacks thinking that i make ppl want to kts just because i said no to plans or got in a disagreement. It’s not worth your own sanity and it’s toxic and manipulative.
And I know this because he proceeded to use the fact that I "stalked" his account and got his family involved to make me do whatever the fuck he wanted. He was never mad because it was embarrassing, he was mad that he was caught and that's exactly what happens when people threaten 💀. Just like what everyone else is saying, he's trying to manipulate you. You're not alone. And if he offs himself because you chose to protect yourself, that's on him.
Baby you did nothing wrong. You were concerned about someone you love, and you wanted to make sure he was safe. And all the things he’s saying, and getting upset when you try to leave for your own well being and because he claims you’re worsening his? All manipulation. If he’s gonna act like you are the problem, then he should have no problem w you leaving. Stay safe honey, I hope you get out of that awfulness soon.
