torn_into_pieces Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 I think I need to call it quits with my boyfriend of nearly two years, but I need reassurance. Our relationship was perfect in the start and he was the first man I loved. We had plans to get married, even named our unborn children! But then little by little he made me feel insecure, whether it was pinching my fat (I am NOT even close to overweight) or not wanting to hang out with me. Well, recently his ex-girlfriend (from like 4 years ago) became pregnant. He called me and tried to break up with me because he still loved her. He didn't want to be with her, but he didn't think it was fair that he didn't love me with ALL his heart. So true, but I fought tooth and nail to keep him. Then everything was okay for a little while, and he apologized and said he realized how selfish he was. Now, my sister is his sister's best friend, and they were all sitting in the living room (he's 24 and lives with his parents) and he was complaining about I was "driving him crazy..annoying..and clingly" and how "the love of his life was pregnant." Clearly, I shouldn't have to deal with this. Now why can't I get over a 24 year old mentally abusive man who lives with his parents and doesn't even have a car? I NEED HELP! I'm devastated and I can't think of living without him..
Lishy Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 Oh oney trust me, you WILL live without him! You do not need a man in your life and a man still in love with his ex will just make you feel awful about yourself in the longterm! I am sure we are not getting the whole picture here ..... Why do you call him mentally abusive? Sometimes writing down exactly what he does helps so much! We are so quick to brush things under the carpet!
Curmudgeon Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 This may come as a shock to you but at your tender age, you WILL survive. You deserve ever so much better. He doesn't love you or deserve you. Assuming you're close to his age, don't limit yourself. There's a whole, wide, wonderful world out there full of people and adventures you've not even dreamed of yet. Don't shackle yourself!
tikigods Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 TRust me you will live Just keep no contact with him, remember that he left you for a girl that he can't get with and doesn't love you. Find a guy that has a car and has grown up
johan Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 Now why can't I get over a 24 year old mentally abusive man who lives with his parents and doesn't even have a car? Very good question.
