Sounds like you are still trying to convince yourself of how bad he is & trying to convince yourself that he could do this to other women. When you use the word probably that implies some level of doubt

He probably would do this to any woman,
You also kept seeing very negative things about him that you couldnt trust but you kept HANDING out your love when you had enough valid reasons to stop & take control of your emotions.

It's a valuable skill to learn to see things like this happening a lot sooner in relationships so they arent allowed to go so far. When we see red flags we are responsible for our lack of responding to them when we can just as responsible as they are for takibg advantage of us when that happens.. Not saying its easy to learn but its one of the most valuable things we can learn in life. Mindfulness, seeing the BIG picture & acting on it rather than excusing it away because we wish that reality we see was different

Mindfulness is a good life skill not just in BF/GF relationships....seeing what is going on early on in a situation can save a lot of greif later on. Mindfulness requires usto use both our logical & emotional mind to mske good choices in our lives.
