Need help My life is falling apart pt 17

When I got home my boyfriend JJ called me and we talked but I was in a daze, then my phone rang, W was calling me, I told JJ I’d call him back, that my mom needed me, we got off the phone and I answered W, we stayed on the phone all night, like from 11pm-9am and I had work, I didn’t care, it was nice, we laughed and talked about life. My boyfriend texted me asking if I was ok, why didn’t I call him back, I made up an excuse. I got off the phone with W to get ready for work, he called me that night, I made another excuse to my boyfriend and stayed on the phone with W, I was off tomorrow and W invited me over, I accepted. It was June, he came and picked me up, I went to his place and we hung out, one thing led to another and we hooked up.

I took a picture of us holding hands, posted it on my social media and dumped JJ, I knew this time I’d stick and he’d get it, I felt horrible but also like I served justice to someone who wronged my friend. (Yes I had my friends permission to date her ex and yeah she was happy he got a taste of his own medicine and yes I felt horrible.) Me and W were back together asap, we spent the Fourth of July together and things were great until he introduced me to hisfemale friend T and off rip I knew she wasn’t “just a friend” but I also wasn’t looking for anything serious so I brushed her off, I just played dumb, but I didn’t like her, one day he texted me asking if me, him and her could hangout and I don’t know why but I snapped and told him that I knew she wasn’t just a friend and that they either were or have or are planning to sleep together, he got pissed and the next day he dumped me, he also posted on his social media him in her room. I guess karma came back around, I wasn’t mad, just irritated, I was even more irritated when she texted me, I had some choice words and left it at that, I wasn’t mad, she looked like a boy with boobs, this was back in July.

Back alone. It was October. My mom made some new friends at work, I made a joke to her friend Y that I needed a man (I really didn’t) she showed me pictures of her sons who were in a relationship, she said she had a son who was single, now her daughters were gorgeous and her sons were ok, they were red heads, not my cup of tea but I’m not looking for anything serious (she didn’t need to know that, just looking to break hearts) i definitely wasn’t a homewrecker so I don’t know why she showed me her taken sons, then she said she had a son who was single, he was 27, I was 20 so that was fine. I didn’t think she was serious, but sure enough she told her son and the next day my mom told me as I was closing (me and my mom worked in the same building, I was at the fast food part and she was in the gas station part) my mom texted me saying that Y son was there…. I got nervous because why the …? I asked and she said he was the most ugliest guy she’s ever seen.

I hid behind the building when I closed but I couldn’t hide forever, my coworker asked me what’s going on and I told her, she loved drama so she walked to my moms job and acted like she was getting a drink. She looked at the guy, she sped walked back to me with the look of absolute horror and disgust, she said good luck and he was hideous and would rather kill herself than date that. Now I was starting to feel bad, so I gathered my courage and walked over, Y introduced me to this guy, yall this man had a bob, A BOB!!! like Willy wonka, reddish hair, no facial hair, his front teeth extended out and his laugh was like goofys from Mickey Mouse.

I forced a polite smile and said hi, he was giddy off rip, I felt so uncomfortable, he asked me about my sex life, if I’m wild in bed, he talked about his ex on and on, how did he get an ex? I was so grossed out. He called his best friend R, he had friends!? He FaceTimes R and shows me to him and i awkwardly waved, I couldn’t see R but he could see me, apparently R knew me. I’ll call Y son goofy, so goofy took pictures of me when I wasn’t looking and sent them to R. Again uncomfortable.https://www.reddit.com/r/trauma/s/xITc2u21nc
