I was living peacefully in Bangalore, but I moved back to Pune for him because he said long-distance wouldn’t work. I had warned him about my past traumas and mental health, but he promised to handle and care for me. I had trust issues and insecurities, and though I knew what kind of guy he was, I ignored the red flags because he assured me he would change and truly loved me. As months passed, he became distant and eventually told me he no longer felt the same about me.
I was in denial, believing that feelings don’t just fade away. I had a strong gut feeling that there was another girl and he was lying. I confronted him, but he denied everything. One day, his own best friend exposed how he had been hiding and lying to me, which shattered my heart. Throughout our relationship, he made me feel guilty for my insecurities, leading me to believe I was the reason he no longer felt anything for me.
While I did mistreat him at times, which I regret, it was never intentional. It was my trauma causing me to act possessive. I apologized repeatedly and begged him to fix both myself and our relationship, but he kept me hanging and told me not to hope for a future with him, knowing how deeply attached I was. He chose his two faced friends, who had undermined our relationship, over me. It was never love. Love doesn’t give up, and feelings don’t just fade.
His manipulative friend circle, including a best friend who cheated on his wife, seemed to influence him to believe cheating was acceptable. Yet he chose these toxic friends over me. Having already gone through major trauma, I started therapy again because of this incident. For final closure, I called him, but he was cold and rude. There was no remorse in his voice, and he openly said he wasn’t guilty about anything that caused me pain. That day, I received my final closure.
