I’ve been open with my bf that I struggle with resentment from things we’ve been through. he always says he’s willing to take the time needed to rebuild our trust & work through it but I still feel like I hate him sometimes. have u ever experienced this?

Yes and at some point I just had to remove myself. I was upset with a lot, the transition from high school to college, my future goals in life, my future career and us clearly being in different places in life. He said he could change but I was tired of hearing about the change I never visually saw. It was better for the both of us if I just broke up with him so that I could slowly stop resenting him

You’re extremely forgiving. Just know that deep down you’ve given him many chances and he should value them. But the moment you catch him abusing them, leave. You’ll find someone who actually deserves that restraint

It seems like it would depend a lot on what the things you resent him for are. Obviously don't share if you're not comfortable doing so though.

I haven’t been though this no. I understand having issues in relationships but once it’s towards the point of resentment? That’s a bad sign.

i have. i guess it depends on what things you resent him for, but for me it was microcheating (i just call it cheating but others might not see it that way). but he had a wandering eye and no self control online. he would promise me he wasn’t doing anything and that he had changed but i lost all trust for him. in my experience, it doesn’t come back and i lost myself trying to force myself to trust him again. in the end he was lying about not doing anything anyway so

i definitely have, and honestly the best thing to do is therapy and or break up, its not fair to him when you arent going to work over the hate (not that you need to). but its like staying with your partner after they cheat and then holding it over their head all the time.
