Left me 2 weeks before my surgery
So I was with my boyfriend for 9 years (I don't like marriage and here's why). I was under the impression that he loved me and I'm no goddamn sucker. I have a chronic illness that he's been through with me for years and has stuck by me all this time, encouraging me and all that (now I know) bullshit. Now in 2 weeks I am scheduled for a surgery that will effectively cure the illness.So yesterday, he starts telling me about this woman with whom he became friends with and how they care so much about each other (while also insisting that there was nothing going on and they were "just friends") and how in another circumstance they would be together (mind you he is 47 and she is 24, which sorry but ick) but they both respected me enough that they wouldn't do anything. Oh, please. Don't patronize me.
So I was mad about this because it was going on all summer and he has just been avoiding me all summer instead of being honest. Because I have always asked him to be honest because nothing is worse to me than lying (including omission).
Then the real issue comes out: (can you guess)
He just is too stressed out about taking care of me during my surgery recovery (which would involve not much more than keeping up with the house and making me some food for a week or so) and that the stress is just making him sick and he can't *stand* it anymore and he's leaving.
I thought he was a decent human being for all these years. I've put up with his bipolar disorder (because I have a mood disorder too) and helped him deal with all that and made goddamn excuses for his behavior ("he can't help it, cleaning the house makes him anxious"). And I've dealt with him using all my money (he's on disability) and never contributing a damn thing and taking my credit card to buy cigarettes with and being a lazy fuck who whines about me making too much noise while I'm puking my guts out from my illness and/or the horrible medications for my illness, or not entertaining him when I'm passed out on the couch from weakness or medications.
Also I've had to put up with his daughter (who I was fond of) and how I had to go into debt because what was he going to do, deny her a pile of clothes from Old Navy when he hardly gets to see her? Even though he wasn't paying for that or the transportation or the hotel or (goddam I am such a stupid sucker!)
I have never been so angry at a person in my life. I feel like a grade-A moron. Oh but he "loved" me and said I was nice and funny and pretty.
Oh, also I quit smoking a month ago so that I would have a better recovery from surgery and I think that's the other reason that he left. He couldn't stand the fact that I quit. Even though he literally cannot breathe and has COPD and uses an inhaler and I'm a bitch because I suggested he cut back a little on the smokes so he could breathe.
So there you go. Nine years of my life wasted on a trash bastard. Also, he was a lousy lay because he was lazy.
