I’ve been dating my boyfriend for exactly a year. He was my best friend for the year prior to us dating, and I’ve been holding on to our relationship because of how much Love we’ve had for each other over the past few years. The past six months have left me disappointed in his lack of effort, lack of chivalry, and lack of understanding my issues with this relationship as well as his refusal to change. I’ve had the same talk with him concerning these issues maybe 12 times. I’m so exhausted. But i still love him, and truthfully am scared to be alone. As much as Im scared to be alone, i’m equally excited to be by myself and only focus on me and my emotional needs. Idk why im writing this. I guess im looking for support. I know its gonna be hard, and i know im gonna regret it for a little, but i also know he will never give me what i need and im tired of staying with him for his potential that may never come.
