		<description>This statement in the article Im sure is true in some cases, but after my 19 year abusive relationship it wasn&#039;t. &quot;But the fact that it is also very difficult to be the one who actually leaves is something you only know if you have experienced it.&quot; It was the happiest day of my life, that I was actually strong enough to leave, finances were an issue, but I had hope and strength to leave. I often think back to being with him, and even in my mind can&#039;t stand it and run away as fast as possible. The mental abuse was horrific. I&#039;d rather starve to death then be near him again.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;6359&#039;,&#039;DK&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;reply&lt;/a&gt;  &#124; &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;6359&#039;,&#039;DK&#039;,&#039;This statement in the article Im sure is true in some cases, but after my 19 year abusive relationship it wasn\&#039;t. \&quot;But the fact that it is also very difficult to be the one who actually leaves is something you only know if you have experienced it.\&quot; It was the happiest day of my life, that I was actually strong enough to leave, finances were an issue, but I had hope and strength to leave.

		<description>&lt;a href=&#039;#comment-6148&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;@Laura&lt;/a&gt; - It doesn&#039;t sound like you boyfriends heart is in the relationship. I&#039;m sorry for your situation, but only you can really answer the question of if you want to continue living this way or not. The blame game is a comman one, you say he doesn&#039;t do enough, he says you don&#039;t do enough, been there done that.. I would suggest cutting back on college courses and perhaps getting a part time job to pay for child care, as he&#039;s the father he would also need to help support the child, as long as he didn&#039;t try/get them as custodial parent in court, as mine did with lies... another option is that the father still babysits but you don&#039;t live together.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;6358&#039;,&#039;DK&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;reply&lt;/a&gt;  &#124; &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;6358&#039;,&#039;DK&#039;,&#039;&lt;a href=\&#039;#comment-6148\&#039; rel=\&quot;nofollow\&quot;&gt;@Laura&lt;\/a&gt; - It doesn\&#039;t sound like you boyfriends heart is in the relationship.

		<description>I have been with my boyfriend for almost 9 years now, off and on. In the beginning it was great, we did everything together. Then I guess I matured and he hasn&#039;t. He was more involved in &quot;college life&quot;, for lack of a better term. He partied a lot, went out a lot, while I kept my nose in books trying to better my life. Then I ended up pregnant and we moved in together. Things got better at first, he was always there, stopped partying, etc. But after our son was born, he started to lapse back into those ways. I don&#039;t get help around the house. I do the cleaning, laundry, practically everything. I go to school full-time to get my PhD, and he does stay home to watch our son so we don&#039;t have to worry about daycare. But, am I wrong to expect a little help? Everytime I bring it up he says he wants help from me too. But I clean up everytime. After our son goes to sleep he goes out with his friends, whom Im not all too thrilled about. My boyfriend used to have ambitions in life, go to college and get a degree to be a teacher. Then he lost all that.  I&#039;ve come to realize that I&#039;ve grown up and he hasn&#039;t, and I can&#039;t stay in a relationship where I take care of two children, when one doesnt have to be a child. However, I dont know what to do? We are very far from any family, and I am concerned about my son and what will happen to him. I go to school full-time and its hard to afford much on student loans. My schedule really doesn&#039;t allow me to work. But I don&#039;t want to stay in a relationship just for free childcare. I know that isn&#039;t fair. I need some suggestion and some help. I dont know what to do or how to go about it. Everything&#039;s harder when a child is involved.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;6148&#039;,&#039;Laura&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;reply&lt;/a&gt;  &#124; &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;6148&#039;,&#039;Laura&#039;,&#039;I have been with my boyfriend for almost 9 years now, off and on.

		<description>&lt;a href=&#039;#comment-6054&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;@Ms. Barbie&lt;/a&gt; - 
Ms. Barbie,
Reading your comment made me wonder why you are hanging on.  You are like most women, we hang on to the dream and refuse to face the reality.  His present is the reality not the past and certainly not the future.  I waited far too many years for a man I knew was a liar.  Guess what all that love and faithfulness rewarded me with.....another set of lies.
Having wasted far too much time and energy on a man that showed me by action that he was a liar I decided to end the realtionship and he refused to go away.  I listened to the I love you&#039;s and watching TV the other day I heard a quote from Maya Angelou, &quot;When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time&quot; .

		<description>Hi, I am having problems with my boyfriend. He is a nice guy but I think I don&#039;t really like him. The problem is that my last boyfriend never really talked to me, and we never got to hang out. So when I broke it off with him,(explaining to him that I liked him a lot but I could not deal with never seeing one another.) This other guy was sorta there to comfort me. Long story short he asked me out too my schools winter formal and I said yes. We then began to date each other and Have been going out for over 3 weeks. 

I am starting to feel bad about accepting this relationship. My friends don&#039;t really know what I see in him, and we don&#039;t have anything in common. Also he is a year ahead of me and will be going to a different school next year. I have started to make excuses to why I couldn&#039;t hangout with him. And every morning I dread seeing his face. I never thought that I would hate dating someone! I get scared everytime he calls/texts me and I&#039;m afraid to reply to them. 

What I don&#039;t like about him is that he often lets people make fun of him and doesn&#039;t stand up for himself. Then when people make fun of me for going out with them I end up defending him for his sake! I have enough problems on my plate I don&#039;t need someone else&#039;s too. He also Is an advid sports fan, I like to read. He loves math, I love drama. He watches the sports channel I watch tbs.

 My parents are going through a really bad period in their marrage and have decided to scream at each other every night. Because of this reason I don&#039;t really believe in love anymore. In fact I don&#039;t want to get in a another relationship for awhile. I know this sounds cheese but my heart hurts all the time now. 

Please, someone give me advice on how to handle this situation carefully.&lt;div class=&quot;comment-remix-meta&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;replyto&quot; onclick=&quot;replyto(&#039;6035&#039;,&#039;Kathy Hanna&#039;); return false;&quot;&gt;reply&lt;/a&gt;  &#124; &lt;a href=&quot;#&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; onclick=&quot;quote(&#039;6035&#039;,&#039;Kathy Hanna&#039;,&#039;Hi, I am having problems with my boyfriend.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My boyfriend and I have been together for 2 years, and weâ€™re seniors in high school. In the past, heâ€™s been an unintentionally emotionally abusive boyfriend, and his love for me back then bordered on obsession and controlling my wants. Itâ€™s not until recently that Iâ€™ve found my strength by finally confiding in my friends, and they agreed with me to give him a small break. It wasnâ€™t until that moment that he realized that he was taking me for granted and completely took a 180 degree turn around. </p>
<p>After about 3 months of an essential stalemate, Iâ€™ve asked for a week all to myself so that I can balance out my life better. While heâ€™s extremely worried about the outcome&#8211; whether or not I break up with him&#8211; he understands and gives me my space. However, I am completely unsure as to what I want. </p>
<p>In the last three days, we both understand each other better, there is more honesty in the relationship, and we both respect each otherâ€™s lives and dreams and goals. He is hardworking, knows how to joke around, makes me laugh, and very generous with his love. He still feels terrible about the things heâ€™s forced me to do and still loves me the same as ever. He still feels as if he owes me a debt, and heâ€™s doing all that he can to make it up to me. Itâ€™s my first relationship. </p>
<p>In this week, Iâ€™ve been having such a great time just with my girlfriends and my family again. I feel renewed. I feel each day is a happy day. But Iâ€™m tempted by the light relationship that we both truly want: just exercising together, spending some time outside of school, little physical contact at school, and once in a while, go out for dinner or a movie. It sounds completely reasonable, and this is my ideal relationship. I know this is what he truly wants because I believe his warm honesty and logic when he was telling me all of this. Back then, I believe I was his first true love and he was so afraid of losing me that he unintentionally became controlling. </p>
<p>I am a forgiving person, and I know I have the capacity to forgive him and reenter a lighter, healthier relationship with him if I had the incentive to. But what is my incentive? Balancing my life is a challenging enough. Iâ€™m often uncomfortable with his reactive, negative way of thinking. It feels awkward and uncomfortable when he is joking and swearing in front of his friends, and then turns around to kiss me and say something in his typical, uncomfortable brusque way. Iâ€™m not sure if I love him anymore. The pain I had to go through with him in the past is still slightly haunting me when Iâ€™m with him. Should I be strong enough to make the effort to forgive him, or just move on? Am I so young that it doesnâ€™t matter at this point? Iâ€™m not sure Iâ€™m willing to make the change and be back in a relationship, or just break it off it with him. </p>
<p>Truth to be told, I am perfectly happy, and in fact, freer and happier without him in my life. However, weâ€™ve never been completely honest with each other and truly understood that what we both truly want now is a light relationship. He is a honest, intelligent guy. Now, the problem is if Iâ€™m willing to take the risk in being back in a relationship again. </p>
<p>What do you think?
