Summary
I'm joined by a 30 year old woman who shares the story of her two year long toxic relationship involving cheating, manipulation, and emotional abuse. She shares how the relationship started off like a fairytale, but then became an endless cycle of explosive fights, and silent treatments followed by outpours of affection and apologies for his behavior. We discuss if the bad times were worth the good times, the red flags she now sees in hindsight, and what advice she would give to anyone going through something similar.
