    If someone left their partner to be with you, they’re capable of leaving you to be with someone new.

      This one is painfully accurate. And doubled if they cheated on their ex. It’s not romantic, you’re not in a movie. They’re a shitty person who cheated on their partner. They will do it to you.

        Yes. My usual version of this is “You’re not special. If they lied to someone else, they’ll lie to you.”

        One of my mom’s two best bits of wisdom. The other was I cut, you choose.

          My mom would have added:

          You never let someone hit you a second time.
