Takingcharge999, thanks for your story of how XABF used to treat the GF pre relationship. It reminded me of my own example to share as well
It was a pretty funny-sad thing mine did in the very beginning right after we broke up. At that point I was still in contact with him because we hadn't really played out the breakup. He was avoiding me like the plague because he didn't want to take responsibility for anything. One day he made a big deal about how busy he was and couldn't talk. I literally remember looking at his text he sent me saying he was going to hang out with his friends and then have lunch with MILI (new girl).
....Umm too bad he didn't even spell her name right! It's spelled M-i-l-l-y and it wasn't just a typo. What an idiot. And I later found out this was after they had "officially" gotten together as a couple. LOL.
Just goes to show you..
