He is very emotionally manipulative and selfish and I’m trying to get out, but he is basically controlling me financially cause he makes more than me. I didn’t realize it when we started our relationship but he used money as leverage. He basically wanted me to move in with him 6 months into the relationship and said that it was because he thinks my rent was too high and that I was being taken advantage of. At first I did not recognize that I was being abused.
Fast forward, 1 year later I just feel completely manipulated in the entire relationship. He emotionally immature, and sexually selfish - wants to have sex all the time and if I say no to sex he “jokes” about me never wanting to have sex, or just out right complains.
I’m trying to leave by transferring jobs so I can move in with family, but he practically begged me to stay with him the last time I broke things off and I felt so bad that stayed. He does things very strategically to the point that most of our relationship I wasn’t even aware I was being abused.
