” Clearly, it did though, and even though I feel sad now, I’m thankful that I addressed the concern because I would hate to have seen how he would have reacted towards me over a matter we disagreed on that was important.
Thank you for the article and letting me share my story on here. I know I went into a lot of detail here, but it’s been rather difficult since everything else seemed ok in the relationship, but I know I made the right decision. Your articles always help me remain strong in sticking to my boundaries, thank you so much.
Natasha what do you have to say about this scenario: I was dating this guy for 3 months and everything was going well, we were exclusive and in all intents and purposes he was my boyfriend
WOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to share and by doing so, helping others (who are too shy or reluctant to comment) feel less alone in their situation and pain. I am so happy and honored to have helped/help in any way.
Clearly he wasn’t looking for a serious relationship
BRAVO. You did the right thing! What an inspiration you are and I agree, his reaction was extreme and unecessary because it was a triggered reaction, not an empathetic RESPONSE.
Oh wow… You could just switch out the title of this article with the name of my ex and it would be bang on ? but it was SO hard to articulate at the time. Natasha – THANK YOU for reminding us all that our feelings are wise (and valid). And that we’re better off out of the narcissistic, social media harem. Hope you and the fam are well. Much love & hugs. B x
Thank YOU B !! ?? I’m glad that it served you. You’re right, it is so hard to articulate, especially when you’re immersed in it. Thank you for your love, sisterhood, support and well wishes.
But when we finally added each other on FB after 3 months, I noticed that he had put me on “restricted access” to his profile, I couldn’t see most of his pictures, https://hookupdate.net/local-hookup/leicester/ honestly there was literally no difference between what I could see as a member of the public and when he finally “friended” me. But me being me, I said nothing and never addressed the issue even though it hurt so much because he had unrestricted access to my profile, I have nothing to hide. What I didn’t know then was that he was emotionally unavailable and had no intention of letting me further into his life. I think in hindsight it was a Red Flag situation.
Hi Becky! Yes – definite red flag. Sorry I can’t elaborate more, I cannot give advise in the comments. Thanks for reading and for understanding! XO
My ex boyfriend lost interest in me and stopped acting like a partner when I said it bothered me he was following and actively liking lots of naked girls on Instagram and Facebook. He said they were his “friends” and it was controlling to ask him to stop liking their naked posts. I felt like I was going crazy and started to question my sanity.
This article gives the best advice, often it’s best to just fold and remove ourselves from their disrespect rather than torturing ourselves over it. Thank you this post was just what I needed!!
Wow, I just went through this! Had a LTR in the past where my bf was always actively adding young women to his social media and when I would call him out he would say I was crazy and threaten to block me. He also would never share photos of us or update his relationship status, saying he was a private person. Low and behold he was cheating with multiple people and eventually left me for someone else after 6 years together.
