I would love some input from different people on this issue. I personally can't seem to figure it out.
I just found out that last weekend, my bf dropped his daughter off at some after care gym and went to watch a live band with a single mom he met at his daughter's dance class. They also had dinner. Plans were made ahead of time because both of them dropped both their kids off at the gym and headed out. I didn't ask for any more details. This has been an ongoing problem. He thinks it perfectly okay to go out one on one with other single women. I don't think it is. When he is out of town, I don't go hang out with other single men...i hang out with my family or my group of girl friends..or i'll just stay home and watch TV. He seems to have this inherent need to be with people all the time. He thinks it's perfectly okay for him to go overnight camping with this woman he just
1. He puts you through hell and gives you nothing in return
2. You two have incompatible views on what is/is not appropriate, and he will not acquiesce to you
3. He barely has time for you
Yeah, he sounds like a great boyfriend.
I think that's the thing "they" don't tell you about breakups... For a while, it IS going through the motions. You're going through with something that your heart doesn't really want to do. You're out of your comfort zone and a part of you wants to return to that comfort even if it didn't feel good. So you have to go with what your brain says, even if your heart doesn't agree, and eventually your heart will catch up to your brain because it's slower to adapt. Starting over isn't so bad. You get to experience a first kiss again. There is a lot of beauty in the beginning of a new relationship. It's not something you need to fear.
Get rid of this guy ASAP!
Trust your gut.
Question: Did you and your boyfriend have that same discussion and if you did, what did you each agree to?
And you actually BELIEVE that?????
I love how you write!
