He’s going to dump me
Well, clearly I have relationship OCD & the main trigger is when my partner talks about his ex-wife. When he was visiting home in Sweden, I asked beforehand if he’d see her so I could mentally prepare, and he said no. Cut to Thursday and he told me by phone “Oh! I met with Ex today!” And I spiraled quickly. It’s been 2 years of trying to set boundaries and be vocal about how I’m not him seeing her, and it felt like it was done behind my back. I have his ex blocked on my phone, she hates me, so that adds an extra layer. Mainxrwelings are neglect, not being heard, being misunderstand, and abandonment. I threw a bunch of posters she gave him from on the wall & onto the ground, and the letters from her he never bothered to keep out of my eye site I added to the pile. He apologized and said he had no idea how hurt I’d be by this, & didn’t understand the extent of this. We are going to work on a plan to prevent any misunderstandings, and I have to accept that he is going to be in touch with her every now & then. But now that the spin out is over, I’m super embarrassed and ashamed & I hate myself. I feel like I deserve to be hit by a car, or fall off a cliff. And I’m scared when my bf returns fro. Sweden tomorrow that he’ll dump me for the reaction I had. I’m doing exposure homework, but I don’t feel like I’m getting anywhere. Help help help. “He’s going to dump me when he gets home tomorrow” -Maybe he will, maybe he won’t I’m a wreck.
