My ex and I have been going through a very toxic volatile 2 months. In fact the whole relationship (8 months) was volatile. Intimacy is down to zero, I felt unsafe. I can't sleep with anyone if I feel anxious and unsafe. The blocking thing with the phones has been on/off for months. We block each other for a day or 2 as if it's nothing... .who does that! We double blocked each other today again, I got a major anxiety attack when she started saying that I got double standards, that I have a lot of work to do on myself, I'm dismissive, I'm invalidating, and her old spiel. Last night, I had stayed for 2.5 hours last night, comforting her about family issues/struggles and building up her self-esteem and emotional independence. I really felt that I wish I had a person to comfort me, someone that I could rely on, and someone that could as supportive to me as I am to others. I made the mistake to tell her that, then she had the audacity to tell me "you have to give first before you receive. Tell that to yourself first, I need to seem thing". That got me to become extremely upset. I has been with her for eight months, and constant support. I mentored her to get her job and school, I opened her eyes to bad friends who were gonna scam her. Somehow her distorted brain thinks I was not helpful enough. I'm just shocked. I am hurt mostly because I wanted it to work with this one, I really tried. The issue is I cannot picture her with anybody else. My therapist, who was her therapist as well said that if she engages in another relationship right now it will be a train wreck. I'm currently no contact day 0/30. My therapist asked me to go for 30 days without contacting her harassing her, as a reset, and see how it goes. Tomorrow will be my first day of no contact. I shall take it a day at a time, I'm in immense pain at this time. I just hope she doesn't show up at my house, she tends to do that when her abandonment kicks in.
