Sad

[Mally2020]

My relationship of almost 5 years has recently ended because I found out my partner had acquired some insane beliefs about covid, trump , 'freedoms' etc culminating in the capitol storming. I am truly heartbroken that after a 5 year relationship he has some how been brainwashed into being a totally different and scary person in a matter of months, due to me living a way while working in the covid sector. I guess I just need confidence I'm very alone through all of this and not feeling great.

Sorry you're in this position. It sounds like you are standing up for what you know to be right but it's sad when someone we love changes, what ever the circumstances. Be strong and take each day as it comes and you will see that he wasn't worth it. Hard now I know. You are doing a great thing working in the covid sector. Thank you so much.

@chocaholic73 thanks , I am just so upset that I have put in so much into our relationship just to be let down, this isn't the first time but not at this level of worry. I have to prioritise my job and family members roles from risk, I feel abit lost because everything was planned around the future, I'm talking buying a house soon and everything. He changed so quickly and whilst living with a family member of his who daily plays trump rallies etc convinced him I am to blame and the nhs to blame for us going into lockdown again, he feels to have been totally brainwashed but I felt helpless in it all.

Unfortunately, if someone is swayed that easily by a relative's extreme opinions, there would always come a point when they would show what they could really be like. It may not feel like it now but you have had a lucky escape. You need to look after yourself now.
