When do you know you should leave someone?
I'm unsure about whether or not I want to leave my boyfriend. How would I know it's just ~time~ to leave? And.. how do I let him know I feel this way? I'll tell you a little about him and our relationship...
Why I want to leave him:
~ he's emotionally abusive
~ he's cold and distant
~ he always tells me "bros before hos" when we're spending quality time with eachother and his friends want to hang out instead
~ he insults me
~ he doesn't acknowledge anything good about me or even my efforts to help him out
~ he expects me to be his sugar momma.. somehow (when I have no job)
~ he flirts with other women
Why I want to stay:
~ he says he loves me
~ he wants to grow old with me he says
~ he knows what I want in sex and gives it
~ he gives me somebody so I'm not lonely
~ he's funny
~ I'm used to him
Now, note that there are excuses and buts to every one of those things.. but I tried to point out these qualities somewhat objectively.
History of us individually...
Me~ had one other boyfriend in my entire life (who broke my heart which spiraled me into a depression about it for years). had sex with 8/9 men. never cheated nor never cheated on.
Him~ had multiple girlfriends before me. had sex with only one other girl than me. I'm his longest relationship (2 years). He's been cheated on multiple times but has never cheated.
This feels silly to try to justify whether or not I should leave... or whether or not I should stay. Leave. .... Or stay. But, I don't know any other way. :P
Help! X_X
