Everytime Bob Coates is talked about I remember this.

Leslie Jones is the best American Olympics commentator. Bob Costas can retire.

Mating foxes also sound like women being murdered, OMG. My neighbors called the cops and caused a huge incident over a den they didn’t know about.

When Patton writes about Michelle, it’s so heart-achingly beautiful. I wish him nothing but the best blessings and I look forward to reading the book when he’s ready to share it with the world.

Yeah. That shit is full of bad juju.

Gather up everything you have that he ever gave to you and burn them.

I’ve read this entire thread and I get that you need to believe he loved you because of all the time you invested, but girl that ain’t love. He didn’t love you. He doesn’t love his wife. Please don’t take this as me saying you’re dumb YOU ARE NOT TO BLAME, but you need to see that you aren’t losing a great love. This…

I’m going to say this and it's going to sound mean but I'm telling you this because I have been exactly where you are and this is what I wish someone had told me: if he loved you, really truly loved you, he would not have done this to you. He would have been honest with you from the beginning because that is what you…

I don’t want to be cruel, but.... I think a lot of your confusion is coming from your need to stick with the idea that he did indeed truly love you. It’ll be difficult, but if you want to get over this you need to face that he didn’t love you.

“It’s been 9 days, and I’m so scared that he’ll never contact me again, and I’ll never have the closure I need.”

Gather up everything you have that he ever gave to you and burn them. Don’t give them away. Don’t throw them away. Burn them.

I’m so sorry that you went through this. This guy is a liar, and even if he did contact you, do you really think he’d tell you the truth? He’s been lying to his wife since before they were married; lying is this guy’s way of life. Don’t look to this guy for closure, you’re going to have to move on because he’s made it…

You don’t seem angry, I think you should be angry. You kinda sound like if he called you and was all “baby baby baby” at you and “left his wife” you’d take him and girl, that’s not a good place to be. Maybe he’s doing you a favor by blocking you, no contact with this manipulative fucker is definitely the way to go.…

He did what he had to do to keep you hooked. He needed you in his life, for whatever reason, and to keep you there he did and said whatever was necessary.

This is going to sound harsh, but I couldn’t think of a nice way to say this.

I am so sorry. I hope this is the first and last time you will ever have to deal with gaslighting.

I’m trying to be gentle ... but I think you know the explanation. His wife caught him in yet another web of lies, and he’s freaked out about destroying his marriage. Even though he already did. His wife probably banned him from talking with you or texting you. (Please, please, please do not reach out to his wife…

Ditto. Handsome kid, but from this vantage point, very much a kid. The idea of thinking of him that way is just, well, creepy.

Right? I’m 34 and I’m like, nope. This kid looks like he’s in high school. I imagine he smells like Axe body spray, hair gel, and weed. Or, like, an Abercrombie & Fitch, Red Bull, and the Febreeze his mother sprays around his bedroom. Nope.
