I totally agree! I once had a guy I was seeing invite me to his place on a SATURDAY night! this was under the guise that we were going out for dinner and having a sleepover (as we had been doing the last few weeks). I got all dressed up and packed an overnight bag only to have him meet me at the door (wearing bum clothes and fluffy socks) and request to ‘talk in his room’. I still remember that awful sick / sinking feeling in my stomach and leaving minutes later with my overnight bag. I felt like such an effing loser and was so mad! It would have been 100% less painful if he’d done it over text!
Thanks for sharing this 💘 I’ve been there and honestly have never been happier since breaking up with alcohol. The romanticisation of it in our culture makes it such a hard thing to give up! I love that people are talking about this now as soo many people struggle with it and it’s a shame it’s still a taboo x
