I'm Finally Done With Her! ( Toxic Ex )

I always see the good and fail to recognize the bad. Surely you can be good again. Surely you’ll grow and learn but a 60 year old women aint learning anytime soon.

It’s heartbreaking because I’ve been a good friend and get dumped on constantly and I’m still there and available when I have other needs. Anyways. It’s done. I can’t save this person and fantasy relationships are more important than real ones for her. Should be a sign but I suspect it’s almost lo bipolar but is a good manipulator so never gets addressed.

Cost me too much mentally and financially and I don’t know why I even tried. Well. They gave me a break a long time ago when I needed it and I pay back but even I have limits.

Sad but I need to do it for my life and development. I tried but need to let it go…Sometimes no matter how hard you try you can’t save some people from themselves…

It’s not your job to save people. A person at that age should know better but if she still manipulates and doesn’t take responsibility for her own happiness then you are doing right by having boundaries.

I don’t know the whole story. But some people are as you say, living a fantasy life, feeling entitled and believing that the world owes them.

Yeah. It’s so hard to let go of some people especially those who manipulate others so easily. It has taken me a long time to realise it’s not a relationship even with others if it’s not one where you gain something. You can’t keep giving and have others keep taking. And yes. I can’t save this person no matter how hard I try! Much peace.

My ex wife was toxic and abusive.
She has borderline and was a thief, liar and a cheater.

I hope you are not giving your ex money @rogueone

I think what you are doing by breaking off ties with her is a good solution

I had a bad breakup with a girlfriend a long time ago. At the time I didn’t see how bad she was for me and I got manipulated out of a little money and whatnot.

But for a long time now, I have understood we weren’t good for each other. No regrets at all that it ended.

Maybe manipulating others makes you bad, maybe that makes you good.
You can take that one with you buddy
maybe its something like, Youve (if that`s a word) come far and I will pull you back.

I’m sorry you had to let her go.
Also, tommorow you’ll be tempted to call and you will miss here.
I’ve gone through that, and…
Ok I’ll be honest. I know you are cancer in horoscope, like me.
We are known for returnings.
In ten days you’ll be like “Maybe she’s not that bad”…
I don’t have advice, I tend not to go through emotional connections…
My heart is with you…
