Oh….he smelled…….farted ALL night long……it wasn’t just him that smelled…..the whole friggen room STUNK in the morning!
Secrets held = irritable bowel symptoms
🙂
As much as I cared for him, when I knew he was strange for no reason out of the blue after month 3, that was my first exit. But you know about the rebounding that comes afterwards as does for most here. Then 2 more years later…December I had had it, went NC.
I’m so glad I found LF in January this year. Thank goodness!!
Msled……I picture you as my spaths Princess Leia, who eventually took off the rose glasses and dumped him.
Kudos to you for getting out…..don’t worry about HIM….this is about YOU!
I am at three years Missled…I still give him to much thought and I wish I didnt. But I look at it as someone who changed my life and brought about a huge life lesson for me, perhaps we are not supposed to forget this? A thump on the head from the universe ‘change our patterns or die?’ Pick better people or drown? Avoid sociopaths? I dont know all your story but time does help, the more we learn about us the less the pain caused by predator’s hurts. We will prolly never see them again, hope so anywho.
HEY HEY HEY – MISSERIN IS IN THE HOUSE ~!
There was one other thing I have been meaning to ask people here on LF.
During my time with S, I could never recall exactly his face and what he looked like – even when I was looking straight at him. No kidding.
Minutes later I would think, that’s weird. Then look at him again to try and memorize it. This went on and on. We never lived together so just outtings and such.
In fact, I used to watch his mouth when he spoke, I was mesmorized. It felt really strange and I noticed it all the time.
I am a very artist person, I do interior design as well so I have a keen memory to observe.
This has never happenned to me before with anybody Ever.
Has anyone experienced this?? What is this??
I am having the hardest time accepting that they feel nothing. I remember when my S injured my neck. It was like he needed a cool off hour then he tried his best to explain his feelings which his said were anger and sadness. “I am angry because I just put my hands on you a second time” “I am sad and I hate you for not making this wrok.” It was almost as if he were searching inside himself trying to get his feelings together. WEIRD… Has anyone else experienced this?
HEY, HEY, HEY Hens………
XXXOOO
Moonbaby! 🙂
Thanks Erin,
I’m proud to be NC since December. Felt good to ditch the jerk even if it was e-mail.
I knew I was going to send the note after a very telling (heard more lies) phone conversation we had had earlier in December. So he was expecting a nice e-mail, I’m sure.
But I was in NYC, walked to the Metropolitan Museum and sat down in front of my favorite VanGough’s and typed on my I-Phone.
Hit ‘send’ and knew I was done. He lives in the UK.
lol recently I had satelite tv installed and I still wonder if the dood that did the work was him or not – i mean the dood was obviously 20 years younger and had a different name but there was someting so fricken familiar about him it was uncanny – maybe he was a spath also? but it made me feel crazy..
