For almost 2 months, I was seeing this woman. Basically, things went well; we'd go to dinner, we conversed well, we texted everyday, etc. Sexually, she gave up the butt sechs and was extremely promising in the sack. However, things went downhill fast this past week. As a person, she seemed decent; a teacher for autistic children, drove friends to and from work, and a fairly active life.
After sleeping over after UFC 200 on Saturday, things appeared to be running super smoothly. Afterall, she was even watching MMA with me now. However, the week involved a hectic start to summer school for her and I noticed for the first time a lack of mutual back and forth texting. Her friend had a baby on Thursday, so she stayed overnight at the hospital on Friday. I understood this. However, the following events last night and this morning really shock me.
As someone that battles depression and negative thinking, I have been fighting a hard battle. I figured, as she worked with autistic children, she would be compassionate, non-judgmental,and helpful. I didn't even message her very frequently for advice, since I wanted to project positive energy as much as possible. However, I messaged her for insight on turning around some thoughts between last night and this morning. She basically judged my depression as a joke because I didn't have a hard life like others with depression and she only dealt with people with "real problems." I was completely floored with the ignorance and insensitivity, especially since she deals with mental issues for a living. So a middle class person's depression somehow isn't as real as a poor person's? I have gradually seen some cracks into her mind which gave off the vibe she wasn't as intelligent as she believed herself to be, but this shocked the shit out of me.
Basically, via text while I was at work, this woman insulted my depression and ended our relationship. Luckily, my co-workers picked up the slack, as I was an emotional mess. With the benefit of hindsight, I think not being with her is a tremendous net positive in my life; I can actually find someone that is compassionate and truly a good person. In addition, she wasn't as attractive as her online dating picture made her out to be, so I can find someone that is truly attractive. Yet, I still feel betrayed and angry by the intolerance to my suffering. I couldn't even come to someone for some basic help without being judged harshly and ignorantly. I seriously want to hear the dumb bitch died; she has elicited that much anger inside of me.
