Tired of people assuming.
There is this guy who has been bothering me. He’ll praise me one second and then the next he’ll beat the hell out of me emotionally. He told me to stop talking to my mother and come to him instead, that he’ll take care of me and pay for everything, then he’ll say that I’m spoiled and that I never tell him anything and that means I must think he’s stupid. He’ll ask how my day is and when I tell him he’s had it worse so I can’t feel bad. “I’ve gone blah blah blah years without a father figure, you’ve only gone 17, what makes you think you’ve had it any worse than me. How dare you feel like that.” (His exact words after I told him I have father issues after he asked me to tell him about myself.) he’ll tell me I don’t know how to do anything for myself, that I’m lazy and never do anything, that I’m too shy and let everyone walk all over me but he can magically help me and be the one to fix it. He’s an adult and I’m 17. I’ve been out of school for about three years (home schooled on and off) but because of my mental illness (not just ocd) I struggle SO HARD to apply myself and do work or go out into the world. He knew that without me even telling him, he’s been able to see my deepest insecurities from day one. He just assumes I never try and that I never struggle, and for three months he had me convinced I was a narcissist based on the things he said “you’re so sheltered” and because of that I fell down a rabbit hole CONVINCED I had no empathy and that I deserved the emotional abuse. I’m just sick of this. I don’t know how much more I can take. Any advice?? Please anything any insight would help.
