Picking Up the Pieces (Again)
I know my last few posts might have been a little heavy. I apologize for that, and I also apologize if I've been hard to reach lately. I've been going through a tough time. As some of you know, I've been in an on-again, off-again relationship for the past three years. It's finally come to an end, and while a part of me feels relieved, another part struggles. On top of everything, I'm also moving from Hollywood to Orange County, which has added another layer of stress.
This relationship has been incredibly draining. My ex hasn't worked a single day for the entire three years. I've been the sole provider, and it's taken a huge emotional and financial toll. I've lost so much � not just material things but also a sense of stability and peace. I've been constantly rebuilding, only to have everything knocked down again.
Even now that we're broken up, one of the hardest things to deal with is the constant contact. He blows up my phone until it dies, then creates new numbers and social media accounts� it feels relentless. It's incredibly stressful and makes it hard to move on. He even goes so far as to create fake personas, making appointments and acting like others, leaving me constantly questioning who is honest and who isn't. It's genuinely unsettling. Because of this, I've had to increase my security � making it harder for anyone to contact me directly or come to see me until I can verify their identity. It's a necessary step to protect myself, but living this way is exhausting.
I know I need to focus on myself and my healing. I need to rebuild my life again, and this time, I must do it myself. I know this relationship was toxic, and I deserve better. It's just... complicated. It's hard to break free from this cycle, and it's hard to deal with the constant barrage of messages and the manipulation. I often feel like it's all my fault, even though I know logically it's not. He has a way of playing on my heart and making me feel responsible for his actions. It's a constant battle against these feelings of guilt and self-blame. The move to Orange County feels like a much-needed fresh start, but it's also a significant change during an already turbulent time.
I'm sharing this because I know I'm not alone. Many people experience similar situations; sometimes, knowing you're not the only one can make a difference. If you've been through something like this or are going through it now, please know that you're not alone either. I need the support of my friends and community right now to stay strong. I don't want to fold again. I know I deserve so much better than the mental abuse I've endured these past three years. It almost feels like Stockholm Syndrome; I need to constantly remind myself that this wasn't okay and that I deserve to be treated with respect and kindness.
I will try to be more present here, and I appreciate your understanding and support. I'm taking things one day at a time, focusing on my well-being, and trying to find my way back to myself. The move to Orange County is part of that process � a chance to create a new, healthier environment for myself.

Hey! Good thing is you've recognized one root cause of your problems. Now you can better find a solution for it and/or avoid it. Good job, things will get better.

First of all, good for you on getting away from him. Make sure he doesn’t have some kind of tracking device on your vehicle or other personal item. Get away and stay way , be strong. Don’t answer any new profiles here or level zeros. I know there are probably plenty of ways for him to get around that and if he won’t stay away, see about trying to get a restraining order. Just my thoughts.

There are very many men out there that can handle their girlfriend doing what you do for a living.
You having to carry the entire financial load is unacceptable.

Be safe
Best wishes

You know what's sexier than a 6'0" tall dark and handsome, well built, toned man with dark hair & green eyes sporting a solid thick 8" dick?

A MAN WITH A JOB!

There is no way in hell I would ever date a man without a job! I don't care if he's working the drive-thru window at Wendy's, though not ideal but at least it's a f'ing job!

I'll be damned if I'm going to support some able bodied man when I can barely support myself. This guy must be a colossal pile... To be able to sit on his lazy f'ing a$$ and watch his girlfriend do what she does to make a living and support the both of them, without making any contribution to the relationship financially whatsoever!

Like I said b4, Work on yourself first and leave him in jail.

Are his prier convictions going to help you or him ? And Desperations on either side is such a turn off.

Think with Logic not your emotions. Throw Empathy for him in the trash.

The writings sound like your aware. Now stop Justifying. To make things OK.

ps, keep the room clean, sell those wigs and grow your hair to shoulder length.

Most people have their strengths and weaknesses. It sounds like your ex only has weakness. I kind of feel sorry for the pathetic creature. I'm glad you got away and hope you stay away.

This guy is a parasite.
He will always put himself first, even if it puts you in danger.

Get a retraining order, let him rot in jail and/or the streets.

Best of luck to you. I know it’s a difficult time right now but know you’re doing what’s best for yourself by making these tough and stressful moves. It may not seem like it now, but things will eventually get better and these hard times will be a distant memory.

Damn. I'm "sexier than a 6'0" tall dark and handsome, well built, toned man with dark hair & green eyes sporting a solid thick 8" dick". Who knew!

So ladies; when you see this short, fuggly, pudgy dude with no hair and a squint enter your room, remember ... I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for Milan New York, and Japan. And I'm too sexy for your party, Too sexy for your party.. No way I'm disco dancing ... 🎵🎵🎵

Wow, 3 years.

Just wow.

And now OP has crossed into her 30's, per profile.

No advert in 4 days showing availability/ city that she's in.

Best of luck, hope things work out, and yeah, be more present here, many ladies here use this to supplement their regular job....

Want me to come get you and bring you down here? I have a truck and trailer. Let's run into your ex, I'll shut him off, put a rattlesnake in his bed. Shit, what happened?! A snake? How long was he dead before they found him and how many days away I am. Lol. Tough getting fingerprints off a Western Diamondback, just sayin'.

Damn, 3 years no job and you still stuck around? Where were you when I was in college? Girls didn’t give me the time of day until I started taking them to fancy restaurants and weekend getaway’s.

Anyway, stay more active to your messages, and don’t get any more tats on your pretty face and everything will start working out once we start to filling up your bag 💰

Girl I needed your post right now thank you, seems you and I are going thru very similar situations, I have isolated myself from everybody so much that now when my heart is broken there is no one there for me …. It helped a lil to know I’m not alone…

Stay strong and keep writing. Don't let those who try to pick apart your words and use them against you stop you from expressing yourself. Write through the uncertainty to find clarity. Write through the chaos to find peace. Write through the problems to find solutions. Just keep writing

Back when I was hitting the 'gentlemen's' clubs, this was the most common type story you'd hear from the strippers. As Trump would say, "Sad."

Ladies, do yourself a favor and stay away from dudes that have lost their momentum. They never get it back. Don't kid yourself.
