Oh yes, many. Can ex boyfriends count? Because this one takes the cake.

Most recent (ex) boyfriend seemed awesome from the beginning, despite a few red flags that I blissfully brushed off. He had an underlying drinking issue that I was not aware was so severe until he had moved in with me 4 months into the relationship.

One of the things that hurt most was on my most recent birthday this past October, I came home excited for a holiday weekend and my birthday. Instead, I came home to not being able to open my front door because a fucking mattress was blocking it (wtf), my poor dog crying, red wine spilt and thrown up all over my white rug, wine bottles just lying on the floor, and my apartment just looked like a fucking bomb hit it. I had to slap him multiple times to wake him up and he was so incoherent he just talked shit to me then slept the weekend away. I spent the evening of my 29th birthday crying and cleaning my rug. We were together for several months at that point: no card, dinner, nothing.

This pattern just continued of him drinking, puking, spilling, and pissing all over my apartment for a couple more months. Then he’d get defensive if I confronted him about it when sober.

No clue how it lasted as long as it did. I’ve been out of that relationship a couple of months now and he moved out in February, my life improved tenfold.

Fuck alcoholics. Soo many life lessons learned in that dumpster fire of a relationship
