The level of manipulation still sickens me...
When B and I started dating he told me: "I really have no interest in meeting your friends---I have all the friends I need. I know enough people." He then managed to isolate me from most of my existing friends over the next 6 years.
I "made friends" with his friends. But this was a problem for him too in many cases. Jealousy and distrust tainted everything. He even went so far as to try to sabotage my friendships with people.
It sickens me that so many of the people he warned me against and told me to stay away from are now the people he's apparently "best friends" with now... Telling me he didn't like it when I hung out with or even talked to V or Di. Making my best friend since 3rd grade feel unwelcome. Telling me that any male friend wasn't to be trusted because there's no way any guy could possibly *only* want to be my friend (as if sex is all I have to offer the world). FU!
To all the poisonous spiders: Have fun spinning your lies, dripping with the negativity and hatred you nurture in your hearts.
I am the lucky one.
