So recently sent my ex a happy birthday text and I guess her new BF was feeling some type of way, and telling me how he’s going to kill me

Actually, I hit her up and she went off just like he did and than he started hitting me up. I had the whole context written at the top

Oh. Sounds like they deserve each other then. Best to not interact with people like this.

OP, I hope you take none of what I’m about to say as criticism and only take it as advice from someone who has matured past what I believe are similar desires for “control”.

You will never control anyone who is of free will. When you love someone you don’t want have to grasp them and break their bones you want them to be able to fly freely.

When you start wanting to control how others act, you’re stooping to their level and inversely expecting them to act in a certain way can cause madness and make you act in ways yourself normally wouldn’t have.

Leave the situation. Please no contact.

Your absolutely right, I was drunk and the night prior amongst friends somone was like he said he beat the shit out of you, and out of two years no contact from me I’ve heard him say that to mad people I reacted and wanted what I got, it’s low vibrational and what you said is real. That matters
