Title: How soon did you realize that you were dealing with a ticking time bomb? Post by: Craydar on November 18, 2014, 07:40:45 AM How soon did you realize that you were dealing with a ticking time bomb? And then how long did you stay?
I'm gonna say 5 months / 13 months Title: Re: How soon did you realize that you were dealing with a ticking time bomb? Post by: Pieter2 on November 18, 2014, 07:47:12 AM I just read my old messages on my phone - I already told my friends after 6 weeks that something is seriously off here. Still stayed a total of 5 months. Knew it wouldn't last from the start though.

But I am not regretful of staying five years with her I can't change the past but ii can change the future though Title: Re: How soon did you realize that you were dealing with a ticking time bomb? Post by: Deeno02 on November 18, 2014, 08:12:09 AM Guess I always felt something was off but I blamed it on something else, like the fact she was separated and going through a divorce and was a stay at home mom of 5 at that time. Which is indeed stressful. I would have to say probably around the six month mark of our 16 months together. Thats when we really had the first come to jesus treat me special or lose me speech. Leading up to it I was getting the snarky comments however subtle they were and the always present "I told you I was mean, are you sure you want to do this?"... .Yeah, should have seen that and ran.

Terrible tempertantrums, anger like nothing I had ever seen, blaming things on me, "mental breakdowns" as she called them... .reall should have acted on the 's.

A friend of mine was helping us move and she had a BPD episode when i said i was going to leave the house to do him a favor and drive him somewhere. She threw 3 beer bottles in my direction as i walked out the door. I should have ended it then.

My ex didn't get the memo, though she has threatened at times to throw chairs out windows and hit people over the head with a 2x4. Luckily that never materialized. Her favorite line was 'don't ___ with me' Title: Re: How soon did you realize that you were dealing with a ticking time bomb? Post by: thatwasthat on November 19, 2014, 02:04:39 AM 'don't ___ with me' Haha. Classic. When she said that I knew it was on. She only used that sentence when she was going ape___.

I also looked through some old texts and before we went on my first date I was joking with my friend that she was hot but I bet she had serious issues. I had no clue what I was really up against though. Title: Re: How soon did you realize that you were dealing with a ticking time bomb? Post by: Earthbayne on November 19, 2014, 04:33:26 AM My spidey senses always tingled as soon as I thought about becoming romantically involved. Like I knew I would never want to marry her nor have kids with her, so I don't even know why I pursued being her boyfriend. But I knew pretty early on that something wasn't off, but I also thought that I was just being silly.
