In my view, loving relationships should be without angst. I would never personally stay in one where I feel the kind of anxiety that you're expressing. Ups and downs in a relationship are OK, but this seems constant. I think a lot of women allow themselves to be used by men who "need them". Some men will take too much advantage of that nurturing nature of ours.
It sounds like you know what you need to do, so go on and do it. I think everyone here is affirming your decision.
