Me (28F) and my partner (28M) have been together for nearly 3 years, with 2 of this living together with our cat. We’ve had some issues for a little while. There’s no doubt I love him, I’d give him the world if I could, but he’s had issues with lusting over girls online (including some coworkers) which I’ve struggled to deal with. Ive been in therapy for the last 4 months, for this and CPTSD, and trying to deal with this but im still struggling. I have no other complaints about him, and I’d hope he has no complaints about me that I haven’t tried to address such as my lack of interest in hobbies due to my depression and lack of self confidence.

Just need to know if I need to prepare myself for the fact he’s about to leave me, and how to cope with this, or is this all salvageable.

Thankyou. <3

TLDR my boyfriend has said he’s lost all hope for our relationship - is he about to leave me

For the last two years my partner's addiction to looking at women online has been very apparent. Each new thing i find out, or each new relapse, destroys more of me mentally. I barely can look at myself nowadays, or attempt to think of me in a positive manner.

Im going to therapy - for this and a whole heap of other CPTSD issues - but what worked for you? What made you reclaim some of who you were before it all happened? I just want to show myself some love. I need to.

Thankyou. <3
