    Usually it's a slow death like in the first story. It doesn't go great and suddenly turn sour, it is a decline that starts so gradually you don't notice it at first.

      That's how mine ended. Together for 12-13 years. Married for 9. I watched my relationship fall apart until I just couldn't be with her anymore.

    I was in a relationship for 5 years. I would personally say we had a great relationship. But one day she sat me down and asked for an open relationship. I was in shock and began crying. She wanted to be with her best friend. I said no, that was not what I wanted in a relationship. She dropped the subject and said sorry. She was very apologetic and knew she messed up. But after she asked me that. I don't know how to explain it. It's like I just lost all the love I had for her. I still cared about her immensely and still due to this day. But I ended the relationship a few months later. All of this happened over half a year ago. It still hurts now and then and we haven't talked since the day we broke up. Personally, I'm doing much better now and have made a lot of new friends. But I don't think I'm ready for dating just yet.

      I don't blame you. She basically told you she wants to cheat on you with her best friend

      reconsidered something I'd written and deleted my previous comment. I'll just say I hope the best for you going forward, absolutely warranted from you in my opinion. Take care!

      Respect to you. I had the same situation (see my own comment on this video) and she basically said she wanted to use me for everything I offer (babysitting, finances, mortgage payments) but stop having sex with me and have it with somebody else.
      The moment she said that the relationship died. I couldn't believe somebody who had always said marriage is forever etc would be so disrespectful and downright disgusting.

      I had a crush on a boy for three years and one day saw him liking loli on insta back when it told you what post your mutuals liked recently. Instantly killed any feelings.

      Are you Jared Fogle's ex wife? Jokes aside, that had to be the most messed up way to find his dark secret. Glad you are moving forward but I couldn't see a union of 13 years as "No big loss" no matter how it ended. I would be pissed, sad, angry, feeling a definite type of way because I wasted all of that time on someone who is as mentally twisted as that.

  • @jayelpoe

    Story 1 - he was never really into her, but didn't feel he had a 'good enough' reason to dump her, and then as the relationship went on, it was just... sunk cost fallacy. He'd spent so much time in that relationship, it felt like a waste of all those years to break up (and likely was afraid of being alone). He didn't like hanging out with her, planning for the future with her, nothing. He just wasn't into her. It's best for both of them to break up, they just weren't right for each other.

    8 year relationship - first one from highschool. Guy became verbally abusive and cheater. We were also growing apart living different lives.
    10 years + marriage - Ex diagnosed with NPD. Had all the signs of NPD behavior, including no sympathy and compulsive lying. He also cheated.
    5 years or not, all it matters is that I moved on, upgraded my life and finally found the love of my life

    Smoker guy: I knew he was lying immediately. Often people who habitually lie try to isolate friend groups/friends from other groups because they can’t keep track of what they’ve told which group/friend.

    Some people get a long term relationship before they're ready for one, and this is usually the end result. Part of growing up is having the self awareness that it's not always about your own needs, you gotta address the needs of your partner as well. Nothing wrong with having separate group friends or separate lives, but it's a continuous give and take.

    Basically she wanted to have a family and stay in our home town while I wanted to travel around.
    We both understood our differences and in the end got what we wanted and I'm happy it ended the way it did.

  • @M3rrimack
    @M3rrimack 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Dated a woman for 6 years and even proposed to her. Friends had tried telling me for years that she was slowly isolating me from them but I ignored the signs because it was my first relationship. When COVID hit, she went full isolation on me. If I wanted to go see my family who lived in a rural area, it was always a fight. If I did anything outside of working and staying at home, I had to isolate myself for 2 weeks before I could do anything with her. Eventually the fighting just got worse and worse and my physical and mental tail health took a turn. When I brought it up to her, all she said was basically that is sucks but she doesn’t care. We didn’t last long after that point

    That first one if you reverse the roles was how me and my ex broke up. I’ll be the first to admit I was not the perfect boyfriend, no guy is, but I don’t think the treatment I received throughout most of our relationship was warranted in the slightest. I was the only one trying, especially towards the end. Where it differs from that story was we were on face time and we both said I love you and good night baby to each other before falling asleep. The next day I saw her with hickeys on her neck. I believed her stupid lie at the time that a friend had simply leaned over and sucked on her neck until she got one. We broke up a few months ago and I’m still broken over it even though I know logically that I want the one in the wrong, but I’ve still been trying to figure out what I did wrong.
    A buddy of mine broke up with his girlfriend of 8 years around the same time me and my ex split because she cheated on him and it was both of our heartaches that we bonded more over and have been helping each other through this process. I’m blessed to be where I’m at and I try to focus on that but it’s definitely tough.
    If anyone read this all the way, I hope you’re doing well and have a beautiful day! Keep working on yourself and you’ll be better off for it, just make sure you’re doing it to better yourself and not because you want to get with someone or get back with someone.

  • @abg7750
    @abg7750 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    After a few years I fell into bad habits and behaviors, didn't keep improving myself. We had both lost interest in the things we had in common and finding things to do together became difficult. Living together we both found little things that irritated each other that neither of us fixed and built resentment. There's more, but the gist is the love faded, the trust and mutual respect was eroding, and if we wanted to spend time together, one of us felt like we were getting dragged along rather than both of us having fun. Neither of us had fully become the person we wanted to be yet, and once we started getting there, we weren't as compatible anymore. I think reflecting, we both dragged it out about another year since we had gone through so much together and we still had love for one another, but after 5 years having those doubts of this being the one should have been enough. The irony is at the 3 year mark, if you asked me if this is who I wanted to marry, I would have said yes. So maybe it's better that we went our separate ways.

    First story reminds us how important communication is, i didn't see that any party has tried to talk to each other the dude in that story seems to have avoidant attachment disorder that needed to be addressed. Story 6 there were definitely red flags that were ignored, Last story girl was just selfish you wouldn't talk about kama unless you knew you have done wrong......

    We were just not compatible. He was obsessed with cleanliness and often treated me like one of his students (he was a teacher). He made promises and broke them. My love for him slowly died and turned into resentment. After 10 years I divorced him.

    My daughter's mother and i we're together for 7 years, ultimately what broke us was a mental break she suffered 5 years in and after about 2and a half years taking care of her and getting back to normal the toll of her mental health had drove a wedge between us and we fell out of love and as hard as i held on to her she left me for her boss

    Not to shade the woman on Story 7 but I genuinely feel happy for her ex who was able to rebound and found someone who was willing to marry him after getting dumped like a hot potato after 6 years together. Unlike the other stories, she was bold enough to admit that herself telling the story was the one who did her ex wrong and at this point is still single and wandering the field while her ex is probably happily married by now.
    Part of me would feel and I admit, spitefully gleeful because what happened her was Poetic Justice in it's finest form but I commend her bravery on telling a story which places her as the villain as not too many people are willing to put themselves in the role of a Heel as opposed to a Babyface. I hope when she gets herself sorted out and accomplishes what she wants out of life, there's someone for her and perhaps she'll fully appreciate it and not take it for granted.

    They pt of nowhere started treating me very dismissively. I said I don't like being treated that way. They ghosted me for a whole day came back home and broke up by text (we had been together for 10years) but still wanted to be friends and live together and share the bed together. I kicked them out

    I didn’t. I’m still with my high school sweetheart 29 years later. We’re lifers, happy, in love. We rarely fight and if we do it’s petty little typical crap like most people do. “Clean up after yourself when you make a big mess” type stuff.

    my husband and I divorced after 10 years... we've been on and off for almost 20... like a few months away from 30 years together... About a week ago I decided I am done... changed the locks on my apartment, blocked his phone, etc. We have had breaks in the last 30 years, but I haven't ever cut off anyway for him to get a hold of me. I'm just not going to keep jumping thru his hoops. Honestly we are going to have to not talk to each other for over a year, before my daughters will believe it, I think 😂. I wish him all the happiness and hope he finds what he needs ❤️.

    @Drasnier 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Story 5 TO ME sounds like a textbook example of a girl that never grew up to be an adult which is why she couldn't understand what was in his eyes, with fairy-tale protagonist delusions (considering how she described her friends wedding) and just looking for excuses to end it. So she fell down some stairs and DIDN'T get hurt? "Alright get moving then we've got places to be" sounds reasonable to me. No intimacy for months? Wonder who was the cause of THAT! Excuses, excuses!
    I could be wrong but... nah. Made up justifications all the way.
