I had been way too nice for way too long, and it was destroying my mental health. All because I couldn’t bear to call my ex out on her behavior (if I tried to she would lose her shit) both during and after our relationship. Two days ago, after she insulted me again and spewed lies about me again (over text) for what seems like the thousandth time, I stood up to her. I don’t know what it was but she finally pushed me past my limit. All I said in response to her bullshit was “okay goodbye asshole” and blocked her on every platform (except Snapchat so I could watch her messages, which I will never open, pour in). She gaslighted me for nearly 2 years saying everything was my fault. My friends recently helped me see that was not the case. I feel better than I’ve felt in years now.
