Nice one. E sweet me for body


nurez305:
The first red flag was when she started ignoring my calls.

I went to her house to know what is going on and I met a guy there but he excuse us immediately, later she went to take her bath and drop the phone on the sofa. I was with her phone when the text message from that guy that left enter with only "OK" . then I open the message and I saw the previous conversation between them.

The guy said : when you know your boy-friend is coming to your house today, why did you invite me also to come

My fucking GF replied : he is not my boyfriend, he is only a friend


After reading that, I started sweating inside their house after I have spent on the idiot.

I bought her the phone,
Pay her school fee,
Give her money whenever she ask
When her father died, I paid her trip to and fro and also give her change to hold to her village.


I felt like a loser and was very heartbroken. I summon courage and told her to return back my phone after telling her what I saw in her inbox, she accuse me of checking her messages without her consent and she refuse to give me the phone.

I threten her that if she refuse to return my phone that I won't take it lively with her. She reported me to police and they set a trap for me, she told me to come to somewhere to collect the phone, on getting there, I was arrested and the police force me to write a statement that I will never disturb her because of this phone again. I did and they told me to call one of my relatives to come and bail me and be my witness. I did that and I was granted bail and told us to come the next day.

The next day, the police woman try to settle the issue between us and she said we should not fight each other again and continue our relationship. And the police officer told her to delete all the threat messages I sent to her which he did.


NOW IS MY TURN TO REVENGE
After about 2months that will depart, she taught I have forgotten everything she does to me not knowing that I'm only waiting for the best time to strike her back. I went to area command to hire police, the man charged me 30k and told me not to worried that what she does was very bad. I lead the way to her house and she was shocked to see me again, she quickly call her mum and to tell her, we arrested her in her shop then and the police put an allegation on her that she hire tug to beat me up because I requested for my phone from her. She started crying that is a lie. The police ask for the receipt of the phone from her and she told them that I bought it for her, they collected the phone and detained her until her family show.

I later tell the police to allow her to go but I need to collect the phone. The man said it is important I do that.... After everything, I collected the phone and leave them in the station.

I encountered one recently, his gaslighting skill is top-notch. I've been enduring him but I decided to let him go before he starts to get to me. I warned him about it some time ago and he responded with, "whatever makes you happy". He never stopped. I had to leave before I fall under his gaslighting manipulations. I blocked him everywhere. I saw him yesterday and he was snubbing me. I just ignored him. Good riddance!
They hate when you see through them. The snubbing is also part of the manipulation ,they have various ways of "guilt tripping" and they see the "silent treatment " as a powerful control tool.


More people need to be aware of narcissism, gaslighting and emotional manipulations because ,there are more damaged people out there devolving everyday and developing dangerous personality disorders detrimental to sane and normal socialization and relationships.

So? Does that make her daft? Those info are general knowledge and not a measure of intelligence.

A presenter once asked an American billionaire who Kim Kardashian was and he didn’t know. Does that make him stupid?

Who is Jonas Edward Salk? I bet you don’t know who that is. Does that make you dumb? No, because general knowledge isn’t a measure of intelligence.

Most people that know about Isaac Newton and Albert Eistein towed the science part in school. An art student will hardly know who they are.

When I saw how my ex was verbally abusive to her younger sibling and how she always picked quarrels with everybody even to the extent of fighting in her school hostel while always being sweet with me, calling me pet names, using 'E' to address me instead of 'O', (Yoruba people understand this). I knew it was only a matter of time before she changed it for me with her real, quarrelsome character showing.

She kept asking me if I could cope with her and her weaknesses. I know as a couple, you accept the other individual. But I sensed something unacceptable as her underlying reason for the question.
A week after the break-up, aunty was frolicking around with guys on a speedboat cruise in Marina.

Selfishness. Took her to a restaurant she ate like someone who has been starving for the past one week. dipped her spoon into my plate and packed all the meat and put them in her plate.and kept wolving everything down. after that I just played along and bleeped her to my satisfaction and made a quick fade.

Some people are shameless. A guy took a lady out and she gulped 7 glasses of yoghurt. I was dumbfounded.

Men are more enabled due to patriarchy. Men have more opportunities to devolve and get away with it. Infact being toxic to some is a "manly trait", Most people don't even know how to differentiate being toxic from being manly.

I think he got disappointed at a point when he’ll try to provoke a reaction from me and I’ll just give him a blank. Sometimes, I’ll start pitying him and wonder what damaged him to this extent
