Hello, I'm new here and quite honestly painfully embarrassed to just be finding this amazing space. As I am having nightmarish revelation after fever dream of the error of my past dating ways, I am struggling to apply a label to the concepts I'm unearthing for myself.
What is the term or phrase used to describe when you finally decide to simply stop explaining to or asking for men to treat you like they're supposed to and dump them with no warning?
For example, I didn't have one single conversation with the man I was dating for 2 months about the behaviors he chose to exhibit that bothered me. I only observed his behavior while actively dating him 2 or so times per week and, when the red flags were too plentiful, I broke up with him. What's that called? The refusal to teach them or ask for better behavior?
Thanks!
Thanks!
The term is levelling up, aka taking no shit.
Well done! However, next time, dump at first red flag.
