Description
I’m writing this to try to save someone else from having the experience I did with a woman on this platform named Saffa. Be careful who you invite into your home.
I met her here a few months ago and we hung out several times and really connected. We had plans that week to visit a couple places, and when I texted her to check when she was available to get together to make the appointments, she turned on me, unprovoked, out of nowhere. A complete 360 to her demeanor prior. She let me know that she didn’t want to be roommates anymore, because of my money issues, which is fine. But that wasn’t all.
She then went on a rant about how irresponsible I am, how ugly my clothes are, and that I’m a ‘stupid cunt’. She also said I was ‘pathetic’ because of my money issues. I had told her before that that I have a lot of trauma surrounding money and she took that and used it to hurt me.
I had opened up to her about my past with mental health, struggles with money, all the things I honestly probably shouldn’t have shared but I did because I trusted her, for some reason; she’d told me she was a ‘safe space’. I had also confided in her how happy I was to have found a companion in her as I don’t have many female friends (I’m female, for context). When I read her malicious texts, it felt like a gut punch to the stomach. It was so vile and it hurt so badly. I won’t be putting myself out there again for a while now.
I do not understand why she couldn’t have been kind about it but clearly she is unstable and is capable of just turning on you for no reason other than she is judging you, or there’s something she doesn’t like.
Just a note as well that it says she’s in hairdressing school but she impulsively quit after telling me how much she was enjoying it, and got fired from her last job at a cannabis store. I chose to accept her flaws anyway because she seemed honest and maybe she was just struggling. In retrospect I am pretty sure I’m the one who dodged the bullet after seeing how quickly she went from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde.
Take care of yourselves out there and be kind to one another. Just because someone might not be right for you doesn’t mean you have to literally attack and abuse them.
If you’re in a thing with her already and not sure whether to believe me, I’d be happy to send you screenshots, let me know.
