Obsessive love

Crossing dat small line between truly loving someone nd a compulsive obsession. Its a very small line indeed nd it can be easily crossed... What causes it? Is it da lack of trust or scared to end up alone? Well today it has happened to me. It feels like someone is inside your head. Sumeone is taking control over you, manipulate you. It starts all very innocent. You might even ignore da signs or find 'em sweet. But afta a while it all changes nd you realize you are caught up in sumthang serious. Sumthang that is getting way out of hand nd dere is no way out w/o hurting sumeone. But you just have to get out cus dis situation is no good at all. It all started with a simple I love you. It shocked me at first cus it was so early. When I didnt reply his love, he got a lil bit agitated. Dose were da first signs I ignored. When time passed, he more nd more started to talk bout us being togetha foreva. Nd dis while we werent even dating. Always rushing things nd never understood dat I needed time. Even playing mental games on me like saying he got a girl now so I am no longer his lady. Calling you a whore cause he claimed you were only up to sex. Even making you feel you owe him sumthang cus you were his first time. Demanding expensive gifts to prove your love nd devotion to him. At dis moment you start to realize dat you are crossing da small line. You feel unhappy but in the mean while you dont want to break someones heart. But somehow you start to doubt if it is still love dat he is feeling. It all gets out of hand when he asked what I planned for his birthday. When I replied dat I wont be in the country dat day he loses his mind. Immediately assuming dat I would be with a male friend dat day. Sumhow I wasnt surprised to get dat assumption from him. But sumwhat bitter I replied dat I was going to see an old friend who was around for sum days. Dat sumhow made it even more worse. He felt betrayed dat I would leave him alone. Leave him alone while I would go see someone I am close to but havent seen in years due to da distance. Dis sumhow gave me courage to stand up nd set sum thangs straight. No longer will I be terrorized by dis guy. He has always been da one preaching bout respecting people nd listen to dem. While he is da one who is demanding dat I should drop all my friends for him. Dis was one step too far for me... Looking back at all of dis I should have seen da signs earlier. Not because I loved him cause I didnt but because it is awkward when someone plays mental games on you. Its like you are Pinocchio nd he is Geppetto. He pulls da strings nd you lift up your arm... You just dont want to be with him nd he knows it. He knows it nd used it to get back to you. If you ever find yourself in a situation like dis, den dont let it come dis far. Dont minimalise da signs but act. Dont hesitate cause you might break someones heart. Think about yourself nd da consequences dis person may have on your happiness or even future. Dont let anyone decide what you want in your life or say what you feel. Only you can dat. Nd when he is demanding you to give up everything, realize it is no love but an obsession. Stand up for yourself nd get out. Take back control of your own life!
