Confession #325: I dated a man on and off for 1 1/2 years. The entire time during our relationship he lied to me and treated me worse than garbage. I finally got the courage to dump him when he went into basic. Months later, I met his best friend,my boyfriend. Best decision of my life. Even though he’s in the army.. I know he’ll never hurt me. Sad thing is, even though my ex is in Germany, he still tries to get with me.
