I was dating my coworker for about two months until one day she decided to pull a baby joke on me. I was 20, and she was 29. Everything was completely fine before this. She hopped off of me (we went all the way) and smiled at me with a somewhat evil look, saying, "In 3 months, you'll get the notice." I looked at her, scared, trying to ask if she was joking, and she said, "Yes," but I still didn't believe her.

We had a bad moment; she immediately ended the sex, and I dropped her off at home. This really freaked me out because on the first time we had sex, she took off my condom without permission and then said, when I didn't want to go all the way, "You don't trust me?" Additionally, the date we had planned for the week, she canceled without saying anything, and then didn't text me the entire day. When I tried to call her, she hung up on me twice and didn't call me back until the next afternoon.

She made my life a complete hell after all of this. She would hold me up if I asked her out on a date; she would be the one to initiate. I couldn't ask directly; I could only mention it. By the way, she is Latina and did say to me that she was toxic. I got so scared after that incident that I even called an old coworker to ask if she had her citizenship because I was trying to avoid child support. Unfortunately, this coworker backstabbed me and called her.

She freaked out on me, saying it was just a joke and that I needed to "be a man." A simple "sorry" from her would have gone a million miles, but she couldn't even do that. I was so freaked out that I was planning on killing myself that week. We talked things through after a couple of days, and she wanted to take me out on a date again, but I just didn't trust her anymore. My gut was telling me no, especially when I asked to use her phone to make a phone call, and she got all jumpy, saying she had to call insurance.

At that point, I decided to secretly end the relationship. I started playing dumb until she eventually left. But am I wrong for dumping her? Obviously, I am 99% sure she was cheating on me and using me. She was very nice though, only up till when we would go on dates, she would play super hard to get, her friends even let me know this, so I don't know if this was some fucked up game she was playing or if she was really just cheating. We only had sex twice and she was my first ever date with a woman.

Also, she held me up for 2 months, didn't text for over a month and barely talked to me at work, and then got upset on her last day on why I didn't want to get back with her. She ended up completing her joke by leaving after 3 months. Another coworker (different), I told him the situation, still freaked out, and he said that he saw her and she's not pregnant. I literally told him that he saved me from a year of pain

EDIT: I was drunk when the took rhe condom off
