The mortgage one is the best one

valleysflower25 · 2020-10-20T22:55:20+00:00

Lol that was me in my pick me days. I think being a pick me was partially caused by my brain not being fully developed. I reached the age of 26 and voila! I can see the bullshit clearly. I can't explain my stupidity at the time any other way without feeling trapped in a flood of shameful feelings. ...

The mortgage part just got me. I've recently read an article about people who bought their place before 30. One of the guy interviewed stated that his ex-gf helped him with the mortgage, but she "was too high-maintenance, since she was a food blogger and needed to go to expensive restaurants regularly", so he got a new gf, who now helps him with furniture and renovation.

And then they're talking about how all women are gold-diggers.

I'm currently in this headspace with someone who bounced back and forth between being really mean to me, then telling me he was in love with me.

In the back of my mind, I still think he's going to come back and give me some scraps.

Or "well his last relationship was messed up so makes sense that he's so cold and unresponsive"

Yep. That was me a year ago. Not proud that it happened but proud that im out of that situation and he's prob.... idk cheating on his "gf" some more 🤷🏼‍♀️ as long as he's out of my life...

Never give wife privileges to a male who is not your husband. And NEVER chase, women do the picking, it’s nature.

InevitableHulk · 2020-10-20T23:07:41+00:00

The quote on the end, it totally got me. I'm in tears lmfao I cannot even 😂

This was me until yesterday when I just said something passive-aggressive and ghosted this LVM I was seeing. He always had plans with his friends, many of which were female. He was so hot and cold. But for the first 2/3 weeks of seeing him, things were great. I've been going through a really tough time lately, and I quite enjoyed getting a break when going on dates with this particular guy. Things were fizzling out, but being the clown I am, I had hope we could go back to the beginning. Finally, I asked him what he was up to last night, and he said he was comforting his friend that broke up with her bf for saying "I love you" to soon. I responded "must be tough to like someone, knowing it isn't going to work out" to which he responded completely obliviously and kept talking about her. I'm done.

HamiltonSucksAss · 2020-10-20T22:06:25+00:00

I can't make any sense of the 3rd one, can someone explain it please?

youdipthong · 2020-10-20T22:23:26+00:00

OMG THE TITLE AND THIS POST IS EVERYTHING 🤣🤣🤣😭

pancakeCEO · 2020-10-21T02:53:47+00:00

If he comes back, I'm running.

Equal-Ear2312 · 2020-10-21T03:27:58+00:00

I've been there. No, not the mortgage part. The first part. Thinking I was being reasonable... Or something. That something being a clown performing for an audience of one. I have always been amazed at the brilliant capacity of women to deceive themselves and at the admirable yet totally uncalled for reliance on the presumption that a man is innocent. Even after he blocks your phone calls... To delusionally think he might be having bad signal because he died not answer your calls or your texts. To think he is busy. Work is more important than you and you accept that so easily. This remind me of the street of a woman whose husband said he went to the market and never came back. She waited and waited. Gold the kids that day will be back because he took the money to bring them for on the table. She waited days and then weeks. And even the police told her that she waited in vain. Meanwhile, he was having the time of his life staying a new family somewhere else. Our capacity to lie to ourselves is astounding. We sometimes ignore the wake-up call and the friends that tell us they are worried for us. At the same time, women that went through this and said no more knew from the very beginning that the truth was out there only they refused to see it. Dune diet of dysfunctional coping mechanism.

God, the amount of times I've heard friends say the last one makes me cringe so HARD

gravedestruct1on · 2020-10-22T01:26:19+00:00

I never understood the last quote but I’ve seen that shit everyyyyywhere. Like why the hell would someone who loved me feel like they needed to be set free? & why the hell would I want someone back who left to begin with. This is the kinda stupid fake deep crap that romanticizes toxic behavior and socializes us to accept anything 🤢

veruscka · 2020-10-21T01:58:28+00:00

I lol’ed at the mortgage one

not_today-satan · 2020-10-21T04:34:53+00:00

Oh the good old excuses. I remember these. Lol.

duhyaan · 2020-10-21T05:23:28+00:00

If I had an award to give away, it would be for this golden post right here 😂😂

circescircus · 2020-10-21T06:19:37+00:00

Omg, the last two, in that order. 😂
