Congratulations, ita!
I hope I never see him again.

So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I'm on the "what an asshole" team. Don't know how he can't realize how badly he is behaving. Have nothing else to contribute.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Man, Suzi, tell her the Buffista hit squad is ready to mobilize. And we have weapons.

He sounds just so... young and stupid. Very emotionally stunted.
My ex was like that even into his 40s. I remember the drama, the red hot fury of betrayal. (I was the other woman, ended up taking the scorned woman to the mental hospital after her suicide attempt in my apartment) The best advice I have is to try to shake off the rage. Remember, he's gonna have to live with himself for the rest of his life. His stupidity and insecurity will eventually drag everyone down around him into the muck of the drama.
Not that I blame K-Bug for her righteous anger- it's totally normal, appropriate, and understandable!
I'm just saying... be careful how far down the rabbit hole of his assholery y'all go down. It can come back and kick you in the ass, and he's NOT worth it.

Assholes are useful in that they give you information about the kind of guy you don't want. "Hm, you're just like the guy I nearly married who turned out to be a total sleaze. Sorry, dude, you've got to prove you're not just like him."
