H talks out his a$$. Sad, but I just figured that out. It has crossed my mind many times the past few days that he was playing games with me. I'd even comment to that effect and he was so darn convincing that he was not, I dismissed the thought. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Question: where does the shame go the third, fourth, fifth times?
Any great words of wisdom?
Yes. Don't give him third, fourth and fifth chances.
He'll take you seriously when you take YOURSELF seriously, and not a moment sooner.
Tell me Ashley, what were his consequences for the second and third times he said/did this to you? What have been his repercussions so far?
