Boyfriend
J was a train wreck that I kept reliving. We were absolute best friends
in high school. To say that I was in love with this dude from day one
would be an understatement, but we never dated while in school. We did
date after we graduated but he soon dived into drugs and I was busy
living college life so we eventually drifted apart. We would sometimes
go years without talking then suddenly he’d call or message me out of
the blue and it would be like we were 15 again and I’d fall hard all
over again. I was truly convinced he was my soulmate and that one day
he’s see it too. We again lost contact when I moved out of state. On his
birthday, August of 2011, I wished him a happy birthday on FB like most
people do. Out of nowhere he called me that night and we talked for
hours. I turned into a teenager like I always do and in a instant was
ready to turn my life upside down and move back home just for him.
That’s how much of a grip he had on me. I settled on just coming home to
hang with him on my birthday October of that year. We met up, it was
great, and we decided to give a relationship a go… again. We talked all
the time to make the long distance thing work and I thought we were
going strong. Well come February of 2012 low and behold I log into FB
and in my newsfeed were some pics he was tagged in with another girl who
referred to him as her boyfriend. Needless to say I was hurt. I still
held out hope that this was my soulmate, I was more than prepared to
leave my life in Chicago to move back to Ohio for him, AND I
had recently paid his phone bill (It’s almost 2015 and I have yet to
see that money btw). I of course called him out on it. J gave me the
dumbest, rudest, yet cleverest (because it was so out of left field)
excuse known to man. He told me that he cheated on me because, and I
quote, “I think I have multiple personality disorder.” I. Shit. You.
Not. I told him that I had known him for 14 years and if he had any
other personalities then all of those fuckers should know me by now. I
was heartbroken. I knew at that moment I had to block him from
everything because even to this day if he were to start talking to me
I’d probably stupidly fall into his grasp again. I guess everybody has
that ONE person that they know is bad for them but can’t help it. That’s
what J is for me. I don’t have to worry about karma hitting him because
it hit him often before the last time he dated. His gf that he left me
for the first time tricked him into thinking the 3 kids she had while
they were together are his (the first one definitely isn’t his), but two
of them are iffy cause she cheated a lot. I’m guessing she has multiple
personality disorder too.
