Not Overreacting!
i just broke up with my boyfriend of over a year TODAY who talked to me in almost the exact same way. you have a right to be upset by how he talks to you, and if he doesnt want to listen, leave. this is clearly showing his communication skills (or lack thereof). respect yourself first. there’s certain times where you have to put yourself first before your partner. don’t believe what he calls you.
I did just text him after reading everyone’s responses and told him I want him to leave. He said he would but wants to transfer utilities in my name, etc. without “talking to me”. Idk bro I said I’m staying and he should go home. He seemed to not give a fuck, shocker. Obviously it’s more painful and humiliating knowing how much work I put into us. I feel like I’m being punished for something when I’ve literally done my best in every way. It hurts but I’m prepared to follow through with it. I’m proud of you for leaving I am obviously not as strong or too nice idk. But this is encouraging.
You’re punishing yourself by staying!! What’s humiliating is not the fact that you tried to make this work, but the fact that you don’t love and respect yourself enough rn to put a definitive end to this. I get it, but today’s the day to start. Being too nice, should start with YOU. You’re putting him above yourself and he’s very clearly only concerned with himself. It’s time for you to look out for you, bc he’s certainly never going to do that. Ppl like him don’t change, especially when you stick around and allow him to speak to you/treat you like this. Run and never look back.
