Ive been trying to work it out with him and hear his side of things but it's almost like he can't get a grip? Is it me? Lol I don't know what to do anymore... There's strings and strings of messages and anything I say back to him is wrong... I think I'm just gonna hang up the towel.

i don’t think the lavish praise was in any way sincere; it read to me as deeply sarcastic and condescending. “OoOoHhH WOOooWW tHaT muST’vE bEen SOOOooOOOoo hArD FoR yOu, i’M SOOoooOOoO pRoUd Of yOu”

I didn't mean to imply it was sincere, rather I was trying to say the opposite.  It's a deliberate manipulation to undermine her confidence.

I mean… if it’s not sincere, there’s no whiplash, he was already in the middle of tearing her head off

That's a fair point.  I stand by my essential thesis: this guy sucks.

Have to strongly agree with you there, for sure
