broke out into tears and crying and screaming because they wanted me to be upset

Luckily for me, this was how my first LTR ended. I was completely floored by their 180, but I noped out instead of taking the bait, and that experience saved my ass more than a few times in the years that followed.

It's some real bullshit behavior, but I feel like I might've lucked out learning that lesson so early. Pretty telling that so many haven't yet grown past that early developmental stage, and some never do. 🤌🏼
