How do you cope when your toxic ex quickly moves on to someone new?

[Anonymous]

I’m staying anonymous because I’m ashamed I just got out of a 3 month relationship with a woman who claims to be my girlfriend. I met her here, she messaged me and wanted a boyfriend so I stupidly agreed. She told me she has an Instagram account, then during our 3 month relationship she would start with lovebombing, gaslighting, making me feel guilty for saying no. I couldn’t take that and broke up with her. Then I realised she blocked me so I created another Instagram account and saw her with a new boyfriend. I did warn him but he immediately blocked me and she tried to hack into my gmail account!

Warn him/her about his or her toxic behaviour secretly on social media via messaging

Harass that toxic ex for days

Ignore them

Spy on them

Cool story. Aren't you a 2 meter tall American mocking someone else. And i just made a new account, that rehab thing is no longer cringe which is why i should drop it.

There is no such thing as "toxic ex". All relationship drama is a result of generational trauma.

Next time you have the desire to lovebomb someone, or do the opposite and call her "toxic", both times pause yourself but don't stop. Just pause without distractions and feel the pain of not doing it.

You might get flashbacks to your parents doing it to each other, and you were told to not interfere.

Now call it wrong and feel whatever your natural emotions wanted to be when you saw that fighting in your parents and were forced to suppress your true reaction to it.

Toxic exes do exist, many people have confirmed it. Whether you believe or not it doesn’t change the fact people are suffering because of that…

By your poll choices you sound toxic as she is.

Learn your lesson and let it go.
