I want to get back to talking a little bit about my story. I figured I would give you small snapshots here and there, so you could piece everything together in between posts. I’ve explained a bit of my back story and how my feelings growing up seemed to put me on a path of needing comfort and appreciation in my dating life. When I met Jules it was in high school. I never liked him in high school though, just knew of him. He decided to go into the Marines after graduation. Somehow he had my cell number after he got out of bootcamp and ended up messaging me over Skype. (Makes me feel old to say Skype was a way of communicating over video chat like Facebook Messenger is now.)
The skype message was just plain creepy. Well, at the time it wasn’t. I actually just came across the conversation I saved a couple weeks ago and thought to myself, “why did I fall for this guy!” In the first ever conversation we had, Jules was already saying he loved me. In fact he said, “I love you!” Ummmm, what!.... If that is not the start of a narcissist love bombing you right there, then I don’t know what is!
But, that’s exactly how it went unfortunately. We started talking almost everyday after that first conversation. I wouldn’t, however, go out on a first date with him for another 6 months. So imagine the time he had to lovebomb me and reel me in, while still talking to as many other girls as he wanted. I don’t want to say I was stupid, I’m going to say I was uneducated. Little did I know, this would be the very beginning of the downfall of my narcissistic relationships.
