People love to say karma isn’t real, but sometimes it just needs a few months to finish the paperwork. Patterns repeat, the new partner finds out the hard way, and the whole circus starts again without any need for your intervention. Feeling responsible for saving the next person sounds noble, but most of the time it keeps you stuck in the same mess you escaped. The truth is, everyone gets their turn at realizing the charming guy is only charming until reality kicks in. It’s not cruelty, it’s just the natural life cycle of a self-centered man who mistakes control for affection.

Walking away from that kind of person isn’t cold-hearted, it’s maintenance. You don’t owe anyone a briefing about how awful someone else can be. Eventually, people like him write their own warning labels loud enough for everyone to read. Sometimes the best kind of revenge is silence, backed up by karma doing overtime.

‘Out of nowhere, I get a DM from a girl saying she’s dating Jake, I didn’t respond’: 26-year-old wonders if she should have warned her 28-year-old ex Jake’s new girlfriend about his toxic behavior after seeing history repeat itself
Every ex who once played the main villain eventually tries to star in someone else's sequel, and it rarely ends well. The guy in question comes pre-packaged with charm, a smile that looks good in photos, and the self-awareness of a plastic spoon. At first, he's the boyfriend version of a well-written apology, but before long, the mask slips and every conversation turns into a court hearing about tone, timing, or perceived betrayal. When the signs start flashing red, getting out becomes a liberation movement, not a breakup.
