Thinking back on my past relationships, it's easy to see areas where I wasn't loved properly.

In my longest (and most traumatic) relationship, however, I failed to see the signs where he not only didn't love me as a partner, he actively disliked me to the point of hatred.

He was always LV, sloppy, lazy, messy, victim mentality, incompetent, etc but my pickme ways kept me around for over 5 years. Near the end, it wasn't just that he was a bad boyfriend, he was a bad person (lying, insults, mockery, yelling, verbal abuse, gaslighting, stealing, etc)

I realized how much he hated me as a person when I found him making fun of me/my body/my personality to strangers over text message.

Now that I'm older, it's easier to see the ways that LVM hate women or don't see them as people.

What were some of those signs in your experience?
