How to leave a relationship with so many doubts? Should I even try something new?

[completelyconfused07]

Relationship of many complications.

Finally after last break, boyfriend said he'd do anything & try anything.

I doubt he's being truthful, every other time he's done it for a week or 2 then it went straight back to what it was.

I think I just got tired of it.

Anyways, I've met some other amazing dude. But it's like why leave a comfortable relationship where I know he will fight for me through anything & still love me? Why am I scared to leave?

How can I break up and stay broken up.

I really want to give this new guy a chance, but I feel like I'll be missing something if I leave my boyfriend or he'll be the one that got away or something like that...

How do you just move on?

 

I feel like I'll care if he moves on and loves someone else, or I'll have wasted all my energy on a relationship that didn't work out with the new guy.

Her's your answer : I doubt he's being truthful, every other time he's done it for a week or 2 then it went straight back to what it was.

 

Give this new guy a chance because your boyfriend had plenty.

You can't make people change, they have to be ready, and if he's not changing for more than a couple of weeks then he's obviously not ready.

 

Also, if you keep telling him that things have to change but let it slide when it doesn't, then you are showing him that he really doesn't have to make an effort, you will always be there anyways.

 

Agree with Dave...NEXT!

True, this new guy may not be 'The One' but I think you've proven that your old boyfriend isn't 'The One' either.

 

Want to break up and stay broken up? NC is the best bet. It can be hard but you have friends, this site and your new guy to occupy your time.

 

You are questioning that he's changed--what has he done to change? It can't be empty promises...change doesn't happen overnight or even over weeks. It takes time.

 

Agree with all the above--move on--you deserve better.
