tw: drama, sh suicide and rape threats mentions
Okay, so, as I've gotten a lot of messages in my inbox regarding what this one user @sapphiclez has been posting about my boyfriend and me — claiming he's maga, racist and I'm overlooking it.
Firstly, the screenshots you have acquired are ones I took and I tried to use to show his ex-friends that this is the kind of person he used to be when he showed me that he was just a horrible person in general, using a lot of insults that i won't show or talk of as it's a matter between him and i. When I showed the screenshots, they didn't care. They still continued to be friends with him, they still continued to flirt with him. Only when he didn't want to do what they asked him to do, is when they got mad at him. And what did they want to do? They wanted to spend time with him on call, except he was busy calling someone else, so he didn't.
And this is the main reason those screenshots from ages ago even came up.
Secondly, I realize that I've had faults of my own in the past, and I realize that he has had faults in his past, except I've grown up from the stuff I've done, and I've moved on. And when he realized that he's had faults as well, he apologized, and ever since he has been striving to change. So, obviously, I'm supportive of that change. Why would I not be?
Moreover, the kind of people who you are taking this information from are the very same people who told me to kill myself, to cut myself, to get raped, and weight shamed me. So, not to mention, there are even screenshots that it wasn't even just me who they said these things to. They said this to another mutual of mine, causing her to deactivate, and perhaps even another mutual of mine — that makes two so far that I know of.
Whenever some people have received messages from them, they came to me and I explained everything to them with screenshot evidence, and much more — everything is nearly documented from my end to ensure there are no more misunderstandings. However, for those who didn't come to me, they have been making claims of their own and assumptions of a situation that they don't know anything of. They haven't witnessed what I have witnessed firsthand. So I do suggest you come to me and I will show you all the screenshots you need to believe me.
If someone wants to change from their bad habits, I say we support their change because a lot of people make mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes. But what's important is that they grow out of it and try to be better in the near future. Yes, the hurt that they cause creates deep wounds that don't heal easily, but there is no way to learn but by making mistakes.
I'm not saying this just because it's me. I'm saying this in light of me, AJ, and everyone else involved in the situation who have said hurtful things, told someone to kill themselves, self-harm, or get raped. Because no matter how strong your hate for someone is, harassment is never justified. If they come to apologize for the things they've done, I will very much accept it. Because I have apologized for hurting them, and I genuinely didn't expect that they would continue dragging this situation, and targeting innocents, using someone's past against them when it's entirely invalidated given their change. However, they continue to stalk me and hurt the people around me and me as well with some of the unspeakable things they've done and said.
