People who change drastically

Also I have my STBX’s example: when we met, married, and up until our child was about 2-3 yo, he was a very agreeable, soft person, which was perfect for me. As I became more and more dependent on him for money and help with the child, he was becoming more and more tyrannical and stubborn and just a jerk. Maybe it was because we weren’t in love anymore, or maybe because I was dependent on him.
I am now back to work, kid is older, we are separating and he is all sensible and fairly agreeable again. So weird.



I don’t think it’s weird. He doesn’t want an adult dependant.

I have a good friend who gets sucked into whatever religious denomination her man is- from super evangelical talking in tongues and now Catholicism. Shes also into her new guys sports teams now. It's kinda ridiculous

These types of personality changes in people you thought you knew are so weird. It leaves you wondering who they truly were and re-think all the conversations you've had before.

I think you are confusing some sort of drastic personality change (joining a cult, for example) and a process of taking on new interests or maturing that comes with age. Neither of the latter two is drastic.

If someone is constantly reinventing herself, I steer clear. I have no problem with developing new tastes, habits, or viewpoints.

I'm mostly disturbed by people who put on a nice face in public. Only to find out they are cheaters, liars, domestic abusers etc.

Right - you can’t relate.

I was an underachieving party girl in my twenties and went on to earn a master’s and develop an impressive career in my thirties. The underachieving party girl persona came from unresolved trauma and a lack of aim. Once I had kids and got divorced, I developed a clear sense of direction.
