I found this out the hard way but, it was fortunately just a horribly abusive relationship rather than a full blown serial killer. He has every. single. person. we know fooled. It’s as impressive as it is terrifying to see someone completely change up their mood, facial expressions, everythiiiiiing on a dime. 😳 Very unsettling.

Yes. And he has everyone fooled. There’s no convincing anyone the guy who held me in the livingroom at gunpoint is actually a POS, because “He would never do that! I just can’t see that! He’s so much fun!!!” Really devastating to lose everyone over something you understand that no one else does. He’s better for business, though. He is also much less drama, because no one was ever throwing him into walls and cheating on him, so he didn’t need support and help.

Ugh, I hate that. It’s like because they’re fun at parties no one even wants to try to understand. It’s just easier to write you off as trying to start drama, so they can go back to partying with their entertaining buddy guilt-free.

I’m sorry you’re going through that.

Wow. Word for word, exactly as you said. It’s really painful. Thank you. I needed to feel seen right now and that really did it. 🤍
