Donāt worry about that douche bag if all he wanted was one thing. He never cared unless he got what he wanted and thatās selfish. Youāre worth more than that and Iām sorry you had to deal with that.

You have every right to let yourself feel whatever you want to feel. I have been there quite a few times, and it sucks. Try your best not to ruminate on what couldve went better, or what you could've done to prevent whatever happened from happening. I have been dealing with the repercussions of a breakup since January, and its still rough for me. Cut off contact with him for sure! And if he tries to come back into your life, don't let him. It'll only fuel the ocd

This is probably not OCD but I have made a post about this guy. So long story short, last week I texted him asking how his day went with his mom and all that. So he then texts me āhow was your dayā and I said good and I said āyoursā and he said ātoughā āIām going to bed ttyl ā I asked what happened and whatās wrong and never get a response. Next day at work heās not talking to me so I thought to myself to just wait and give him space. Hours later I eventually ask him at work if he was okay and he said heāll talk to me after work. Never does. Still never talks to me. The next day is Sunday and he still never texts me so I continue getting ready for church and ended up staying hom and telling him āIām staying home this Sundayā āIām proud of you for getting baptizedā still no answer until finally Monday night or Tuesday morning he responds with āTHXā I come in to work today and my cousin (manager) says he asked her if (the other manager) was going to church tomorrow she tells him āshe said noā and then my cousin says ādid you ask Bree?ā (Thatās my name) and he says āI really donāt want to talk to her right nowā) he asks my cousin will she go to church with him. I keep overthinking āwhat in the world did I doā Iām trying to figure out what happened. I feel crazy for wondering what happened for him to all of sudden do this. I just like him as a friend but now Iām starting to dislike him period and have permanently deleted our messages and blocked him today. I took my time and thought hard before blocking and deleting. Maybe heāll talk to me maybe not but weāre adults and Iām trying to figure out what i did because Iām really confused

Hi Iāve never posted before but I need to talk with other people that have this too because itās hard to explain to other people without ocd. I was in a relationship for awhile and we started dating before either of us knew I had ocd. Anyway I have a really bad episode of it that led me to go get on medication and got into therapy. My ocd can have some really taboo themes and thoughts which I have learned is just what comes with the illness. The problem though is when I was really struggling one of my compulsions was confessing and reassurance seeking specifically to the guy I was dating because I trusted him. We both knew at this point that I had ocd and it affected many parts of our relationship particularly our intimacy which he made me feel bad about. He started calling me crazy, just joking, but still. Eventually I start feeling better and we start being intimate again and the day after he breaks up with me. About a month later after I hear he went on a date with another girl (we live together) he tells me he couldnāt be intimate with me because of my intrusive thoughts. We still live together with 2 other roommates so I still see him everyday. We try to be cordial with each other. I still have my moments though Iām still dealing with my ocd and a breakup seemingly caused by it and I cry a lot. Some months go by and heās dating this other girl and I end up making out with one of my other roommates. I have no idea if my ex knew but the next day when it was only me in the house he starts screaming āTHOSE MOTHER FUCKERSā and starts slamming shit. I tell my roommate about this and he and I are both kind of scared of him. He started acting really cold to us after. Then the night before my graduation my two roommates moved out so itās just me and my ex in the house. In the middle of the night he comes downstairs and in front of my door calls me a horrible name relating to my intrusive thoughts. I open the door and say fuck you and he says you took my fucking friends. I said I didnāt take shit from you and he says yeah and goes upstairs and screams BINGO for some reason. He did it in the middle of the night when we were alone and I had no one to talk to or go to. He blames me because a lot of our friends sided with me in the breakup because they knew what I was going through. He had told me that I could never speak if my intrusive thoughts to anyone including my therapist (I did donāt worry) but he had made me feel so ashamed more than I was already. Also the next day he left a mess for me to clean up since I was the last one to move out. Iām coming to terms with the fact that on top of this awful experience with ocd that I may have been emotionally abused as well.

My previous post continued.. Iām starting to wonder if maybe Iām a bad person and I feel like Iām experiencing some false memory with my overthinking, that my mind is telling me I was the problem. I did something. That Iām a bad person, I never meant to hurt the guy at all and even though I said I didnāt like him back and acknowledged I felt merely as emotional connection after he left my place Monday. I apologize for my terrible behavior which was unhealed from stuff in the recent breakup I was in, though it wasnāt an excuse I warned him that sometimes I say stuff that is rude with out knowing and that I have trouble understanding social cues. Literally all I wanted to do was give him a chance. Give myself a chance. Just said why not. Iāve never had anyone choose me. And I felt like I was in a good place to at least TALK with someone, get to know them, test the waters before a whole relationship and taking stuff further and he was okay with that. I noticed alot of stuff too, heād say he wanted me in his life and talked about the future and stuff when he first confessed to me and it was like the 2 day. Monday before he started acting like this he told me everything was okay and told me he loved me. Itās like he changed completely and I understood from hurting but just started acting rude, distant, cold. He never once said āHey listen Iām really hurting right now and it isnāt your fault with the choice you made not liking me, I might be distant and a bit off if we talkā. Just full blown ghosted me. No communication. I never expected us to be friends immediately afterwards. The only thing he said when I messaged him Monday was he needed time to think, I understand and assumed space but all I wanted was to talk. And I wouldāve left him alone if he just wouldāve communicated to me more. Heād been so sweet and kind and nice and understanding the past 3 weeks and when he left he just became distant and told me he needed time to think when I mentioned we should slow things down, I asked if I did anything wrong and tried communicating. I have such a terrible habit of persistently trying to get an answer to things, from others or myself, and I feel shitty for texting him alot on his phone a few times cause I was overthinking, just because I wanted to talk for 5 mins about if I did something wrong or what not. He finally responded and said heād been busy all week and he has a busy life and heās a busy person. I even asked if he even knew how it affected me when he ignored my asks to talk and my apologies. even though Iād seen him online so many times and heād leave me on read, I knew it was annoying and vowed to stop on wensday night (thatās when he replied). I just wanted communication. I was overthinking and I feel like Iām a bad person now. I was aware of what I did and told myself I would work on it too with alot of things. I just feel so fucking guilty for saying repeatedly he wasnāt my type and when I talked about my ex boyfriend cause I was still hurt by him. I apologized but I feel guilty.
