OMG Ment he sounds just like my ex of two months. Im going thru the same as you trying to get his negativity out of my life. it hurts when they call you a manipulator, I heard it so much I thought in some crazy way he was right. Now that I know he is back to drinking and his persona is so different I know I have to move on and it isnt me being the manipulator its him.........hard to wrap your brain around it. But he is putting you down to make himself feel better.......
God what gives them the right to treat people that way.
I cannot wait to move on with my life and say goodbye to the past 9 1/2 years.
Why do they all seem to have the same behavior patterns?
Take care of yourself first Ment
