So this is about a guy who was in everyone’s good books but turned out to be the biggest liar and manipulator. I got to know about this guy through my friends. They all had really good things to say about him. My friends told me he was in a serious relationship but on the verge of a mutual breakup due to family problems and caste issues. I kept hearing about him for almost a year through my friends. And finally, we met. My friends were going on a drive with him and asked me to join them.
I joined them awkwardly since I didn’t know him. But he made sure I was comfortable, and the drive was beautiful. We started meeting often through common friends. We had a great connection. He told me his relationship was not going to work out and that he was going to break up with that girl. After that, whenever the topic came up, he talked as if it was already over. We became really good friends. He used to care for me so much.
One day, both of us got drunk and we kissed. We talked about it, and he told me it was an accident. We decided to forget about it and move on. But since then, he started acting more affectionate and caring. I started catching feelings even though I never wanted to. After two months, we were talking about something very emotional, we had a moment, and we kissed again and made out fully consciously. I started to believe he also liked me. I talked to him about what happened. He told me it was a mistake.
He said he liked me but it was not going to happen due to some issues. I was heartbroken. I had already started falling for him and was ready to face all consequences. But he backed out. I thought maybe he also felt bad but the circumstances made him do this. But one day, my friends told me he had been dating another girl for the past three months. I felt humiliated and ashamed. While all this drama was going on, he was with another girl and also hadn’t officially broken up with his previous girlfriend. I felt used.
Felt like he didn’t even respect our friendship or my feelings. It’s almost a year since this happened. I still can’t move on from it. I am still scared to trust someone. He gave me this trauma for a lifetime, and he is with someone else with no guilt.
