|abuse| fake love

Your life wasn't perfect. Your boyfriend dumped you. He was the only person you could trust. But things weren't as bad as you initially thought. A year later, you found a boyfriend and got a good job. And so, you thought your life had gotten better, but you noticed that Dylan, your boyfriend, had suddenly become cold, irritable, and angry. He had changed dramatically. You started having big arguments, he insulted you, but you took all the insults directed at you and justified him: "I guess I don't care about him enough," "I guess I should try harder," "he's right." One day, you and Dylan had another argument because you didn't make him breakfast. It escalated to the point where Dylan hit you in the face. The blow sent you flying. Sitting there, holding your cheek, red from the blow, your rose-colored glasses flew off, and you saw his true face.
