Andi Dorfman is at it again.

The 29-year-old reality TV star lashed out at her former fiance Josh Murray for a second time on Wednesday when talking to People: 'I was disgusted with myself for what I put up with,' says Andi. 'I was a strong, independent woman and I allowed [Josh] to be [emotionally abusive]. Now, I know I don't want someone jealous or controlling. I know what won't make me happy in [the future].'

The beauty is releasing a tell-all book It's Not Okay.

Bad blood:Andi Dorfman is at it again. The 29-year-old reality TV star lashed out at her former fiance Josh Murray for a second time on Wednesday when talking to People; here she is seen in April in NYC

Andi was engaged to the 31-year-old former baseball player on the season finale of the Bachelorette.

Eight months later, the relationship was over.

'We all have red flags in our relationships that we don't see. Looking back and seeing those red flags was very cathartic for me,' she said.

Documenting her troubles: Andi wrote a book based on her toxic relationship with the former baseball player

Together no more: It's no secret they had a tumultuous relationship and it seems there will be no olive branch offerings from either side at this stage

She thought she had found her fairytale ending.

'I realized our relationship wasn't the highlight of my life like I thought it was.

'So I took it off the pedestal and realized all was not lost.'

They moved quickly: Andi was engaged to the 31-year-old former baseball player on the season finale of the Bachelorette. Eight months later, the relationship was over

Andi is trying to have a positive outlook on the situation: 'I've let go of the hatred and the bitter feelings. But I wasted my first engagement and that will always stick with me.'

However, it seems as though the reality star is ready to move on: 'I survived,' she said. 'It hasn't been the easiest ride, but I'm happy.'

The only comments Josh made about the book are: 'It saddens me and is very unfortunate that Andi has chosen to characterize me in such a negative way. I pray she finds peace.'

When they broke up, the pair came forward in a joint statement.

'After several months of being engaged and working on our relationship, we have decided that it's best for both of us to go our separate ways.'

They continued: 'We are very sad that it has come to this point, but this is what's best for both of us individually. We will continue to be good friends and have nothing but great things to say about each other and wish each other the best.'

Not retaliating: The only comments Josh made about the book are: 'It saddens me and is very unfortunate that Andi has chosen to characterize me in such a negative way. I pray she finds peace'
