I am glad you are seeing a therapist, you can work on how to not attract these unhealthy men and how to maybe spot red flags sooner.
No you aren’t obligated to date anyone who doesn’t fit your standards. And you aren’t obligated to stay with everyone you meet. And don’t worry about age and having to hurry up. Better wait than settle. Heck Hellen Miren got married at 52, first time. Ha if it’s ok for her to wait longer to meet right people than it’s ok for everyone else too lol

We broke up but it wasn’t the way I wanted things to end, so would have been better to ghost...I tried to have a mature conversation and he lashed out so it went downhill..I know he drank too much last night, was running late for work etc, but I told him he has a drinking problem after we broke. At that point, I was like f it I have nothing to lose and I am done being nice and taking his abuse.
