we see each other every day so that’s not the issue. and he keeps disrespecting my boundaries even after we talk about them, to the point where i now just have to sit back and ignore them when that’s not like me at all. but when things are good, they’re soooo good and i truly do love him but idk what to do

when they’re good, they’re so good. i totally get it, i’ve said this before. but how often are they really good? and it sounds like when they’re bad they’re really bad. i think you’re used to accepting less because you have for so long. but is this a partnership really, or is this just him getting what he wants all the time without doing things for you in return? it sounds pretty one sided. my rule is, once it’s bad more of the time than it’s good, it’s time to go. you’ve had the conversations,

you literally can’t do anything else. you can’t control someone else’s behavior, you can only control how you react to it. ik you probably don’t feel ready to leave and i didn’t either, but it ending was the best thing that happened to me. the sooner it’s over, the closer you are to healing from it, forgetting about him, and actually finding someone who will treat you well. it’s so hard but you can do it. whether or not you do will only prolong the pain💕
