My other favorite is "Yeah idk I think she needed therapy, definitely some untreated mental illness going on" It's like the hard work that mental health professionals have put in to try and destigmatize mental health has been corrupted by fuckboys who apply to everyone but themselves.

I love the ones who try to diagnose me with mental illnesses! You think I have BPD? Maybe the problem is that you keep pissing me off!
[–]ceruleanavocadoFDS Newbie2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Why is it always BPD that these guys come up with?! Is it because of the show Crazy Ex Girlfriend? I know that was the main character's eventual diagnosis but that show worked really hard to debunk common stereotypes about mental illness so if that's the reason then that makes me sad.

I self diagnosed as BPD. Both the therapist, and psychiatrist were like, "Nope. You're wrong. You feel BPD from the repeated infidelity, and mind games. It's more PTSD.".

this. he tried to tell me his ex was insane and abusive and kept nudes of him for blackmail, then showed me her nudes and said the only reason he had them was to blackmail her if she tried it with him.
he said she cheated on him with 30 guys, when it was the other way around. he cheated on her with 20+ other people.
he said she manipulated him and was toxic. He was the one who would gaslight and abuse her. he would barely spend half an hour with her for an entire week and then blamed it on her for being who she was.

My ex did this to me. To this day everyone in his social circle think of me as some manipulative bitch and it took tons of time to accept that I can't change what he made up, it took toooo much time to come to terms with it, I just can't win and that's okay, they're all lowlifes anyways

you can always learn who they are as a person by their friend group.

Yup, i learned that lesson the hard way. I think he did drugs with them too

Ain't this the truth. You are the company you keep. I love the quote about "you're the product of the 5 people you spend the most time with". If his friends are trash then so is he. They're cheaters, liars, misogynists, porn addicts/pedophiles, criminals? So. Is. He.

Wow! That’s insane! My ex told me he “never cheated on anyone” and that he was cheated on twice... and that convo came out of the blue early on. I had a weird feeling back then that maybe it was him cheating on them. Now I’m pretty sure of it, the way he’s treated me. He told me he had sex with his ex in front of her friends, but I wonder if he made that up too, to try and make me feel bad and do more for him... early on we had sex in public (i know, embarrassing! I’m a recovering pick me.) back then he told me he had never done anything like that before, and I believe him because he was SO bad in bed when we met... and now I think HE was the cheater and he never actually had sex with his ex in front of anyone... he loooved making me feel jealous.

Ooh! Lying manipulation AND attempts to incite pick me dancing!!! Trifecta of awful
i can only imagine what mine was saying to all the side hoes. i asked our (mutual friends) friend group if he said anything bad about me and they all said no, he knew if he did he'd get decked in the face by all of them.
since they found out he's lost every single friend, except for one. And that one friend supports pedophilia and necrophilia so i mean, it isnt that surprising

I hope you are free of him, he sounds dangerous.
[–]Unlikely-MarzipanRuthless Strategist2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Wow. Holy crap. I am so sorry you went through that and you’re going through this shit with him still. Ugh.
[–]ilikesoy_Throwaway Account1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

That’s awesome you’ve come out of it the other end and found a way to grow from it 👑

I feel like they’re getting better at this now and know how to lie. They know saying they’re ex is crazy makes them look bad. I’ve had guys give vague, conflicting answers as to why it didn’t work out. Other guys will try and make themselves sound empathetic towards the ex “She hated herself. She had low self esteem. I feel bad for her.” One guy told me his ex “stopped being affectionate” with him and “wouldn’t talk about it” so he had no choice but to break up. He thought it made him sound not at fault but instead I was thinking “what did he do to her?”

I instantly said 'next' when some fellow told me his exwife is 'borderline'. I asked, 'what, you weren't able to drive her completely nuts?'
[–]StillAwakeofCourse 6 points7 points8 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Excellent reply sis!

Shoulda seen his face! And it felt so good.

My ex tells everyone I’m a crazy demanding bitch for asking him to keep promises he made. Sooooooooooooo nuts.

How very dare you.

Like we dated the same person
Did he also call you crazy for crying when he said mean things to you?
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
The guy I dated told me that girls always “cheat on him” and that his ex slept with someone else. He did it just to make me feel sorry for him the little bitch.
[–]pikachupukachiFDS Newbie2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
My first and long relationship of two years ended last year. I havent dated since then. My question is: Are a lot of men like this? Because that would be very sad and discouraging to go out and date again.

One fuckboy that I was briefly involved with told me a story about how his ex was a crazy jealous bitch. He said he’d tell her he was going to hang out with other girls out of the blue (even though he wasn’t, just to see her reaction), and that she’d get short with him, and that she told him to have fun but it didn’t sound like she meant it. Like wtf?! He’d lie to try to make her jealous and then get mad when she’d (reasonably!) get SLIGHTLY salty!! like her reaction was perfectly calm and polite but because she didn’t genuinely wish him a good time, he thought she was psychotically jealous.
