“To break up with my younger boyfriend.”
What Actually Happened
I tried to leave my boyfriend after an LSD trip made me realize I was mothering him and he was unmotivated. I feel ashamed for getting into the relationship and terrible for hurting him.
What I wish I knew
"I wish I had realized how much I would have to mother him and how unmotivated he was for his own life."
