My second ex was an emotional twat. He said he had a dream about his dad selling his belongings for drug money and insisted it was one of the many reasons why he had PTSD. He blamed everything on his alleged PTSD, because any negative experience he's ever had, has given him PTSD. He then romanticized every ounce of tragedy he'd ever endured and recited it like it was the most intense thing in the world- which would have made sense for the first telling, but 5, 6, 7? What's with dudes having no memory count?
He told me he made 2k off of art every month but after knowing him for a couple of months I asked why I haven't seen at least 2k worth of art yet (Yay lies). He has lived off of disability for pretty much his entire life and has used said money to invest in college/schools. He has degrees, he even had amazing art skills, but he didn't do anything with it. He decided that spending all of his time on the internet creating memes and shortening audio clips to reply with on the fly. He had all these opportunities, but chose to be the guy that spams people with useless facts and pics no one cares to hear.
He sent outdated pics of himself to my friend. they were outdated by at least 10 years, unless he was lying, and it was a completely different person altogether.
He insisted he was content with performing chores and light housework on the daily, but complained whenever his mother asked him for anything. His mother is allegedly no more mentally fit to be on her own than he is, but they both seem to be pooling their money together to spend on luxuries.
He said he had liver problems because of his diet. Says he wants to make change and will even support me on my diet journey. Eats a bag of cookies and just under 3 bags of chocolate bars in less than a week. Tries to offer me the same because he thinks that completely glazing over the fact that I'm trying to commit to something, and discourage me, is somehow cute.
He said he and his doctor thought he could be on the spectrum. To my online friend, he outright said he had Apsergers. Again the lying. I even told him to stop dodging and being evasive prior to that conversation. If you can't be up front with me, it means you're hiding something. But he was probably too busy playing World of Warcraft instead of paying attention to what I was really saying.
Only lasted a few months before I broke up with him. He continued to harass my friend for details, asking if I'd ever had some kind of STD, anything he could get his hands on. He assumed I was a scummy sleaze you'd hear about in highschool because 'all of his exes' were allegedly like that. It drove him mad to know that I didn't have the criminal history that he was hoping for and I wrote him an 'official' good-bye letter going into greater detail about why exactly I broke up with his ass. He tried to play it off like it was nothing, but minutes later decided to tell my online friend about how suicidal he was feeling over it all.
He didn't do anything. He's just so used to getting away with shit and had a melt down over it. She confirmed he was fine later, back to sending her random pics with no context.
*flips book* who else can I bitch about now? >8]
