the things we forget or ignore
the things we forget or ignore
I have kept a journal for the past 5 years, and the other night I was reading my journal from 2008, 2 years into my relationship with the Narc. I found it cleaning up and hadn't looked at it in years.
What I read made me physically ill. The things he did to me, and I stayed. I had obviously burried all of these horrible things he did, and it was like reading the journal of a stranger with me screaming "get the hell out of there"
The things he used to do to me. I had my wisdom teeth out and got all infected and very ill. During those 5 days he never called once, or texted me....nothing. I was so ill, he messaged me out of the blue asking what I was doing on the weekend after no contact for a week. I was so dumbfounded that he didn't ask me how my op went or anything. Then I wrote back and said I had been extremely ill and maybe he'd like to come visit me. (bare in mind this was a 2 year relationship not an affair or a casual fling)
His text back to me was "I'm going out to get smashed this weekend, won't be able to visit....but you might have to come pick me up if I get too drunk." (I was so ill and disgusted at his lack of care...pick him up...I was high on pain killers)
OMG just reading that and all the times he said we couldn't work in a serious relationship, demanded me to get out of the car in the middle of the road, yelled at me for booking a holiday with a friend after he said no and he wouldn't come with me, and the serious verbal abuse I got afterwards for stepping out of line. He would yell at me to the point I would be shaking.
I can not believe the stuff I read...I must have blocked it all out.
I can not believe I put up with this behaviour.
I actually wanted to put my head in a bucket and vomit after reading about all of the abuse....at the time I was just a disgruntled girlfriend who didn't know any better. Not I look at it and it makes me sick.
