@bri🤍 Lol not a ticking time bomb lol
There’s a chance he could change, but it would take him going to therapy or having a major life event that sparks him into changing. People don’t usually change without having a reason to do so.
Often - They can change for the right woman.
Two things can be true and I do think age is a factor. My current partner is like @Aryyy described, everybody before would definitely say he didn’t court them, very much admittedly selfish, emotionally immature, stubborn. He was honest that this ended his first marriage. He doesn’t treat me that way and if he starts, he knows I’m gone. Byeee! He also has been through therapy, showed accountability, and he was 28 when we met. Still really growing up in my opinion before then. My ex husband was an abusive, narcissistic POS, and despite separation, putting him in jail, restraining orders, divorce… the works, he still cuts up like a cartoon character every time we see one another. He’s 36. Refuses therapy, quit marriage counseling, won’t even do what was court ordered to see our sons. That man will not change.
Men can treat different women differently. But he’s already shown you he isn’t going to treat you well. He’s not going to change for you
No. Even if he could/would, you’ll always wonder when he will switch up. It’s like a ticking time bomb… to know he is capable of being that horrible previously will always be in your mind.
