Posted by Senseriffic I wish I had known about this before my relationship with my ex dive bombed. Its been hard for me to cope with what happened to HIM and that he can't seem to get over and carrys around every bad thing around. Even harder to cope with the fact that he left me and told me he appreciated me trying to help but there was no help for him. Maybe this will help me find some peace cuz Im still not sure how to deal with all my emotions.

You know what, I think it would be great if you posted a thread where we could all discuss it because this forum really needs a new thread to focus on.
One in which the respondents and their energy involved actually get listened to, put to good use and stuck to by someone with a brain in their heads.
The best thing about educating yourself about the pitfalls and warning signs of someone dealing with trauma is that you can establish and nurture trust at the outset of the relationship, or recognise when to cut loose before you become too invested.
