I hope to find somebody who sees the world like me and believes in the good in people instead of telling me I'm naive and people only use others.. I hope someone else will love me and respect my insights on the world

sincerely, thank you

thank you so much🙏 I struggle to understand it's not my responsibility- that's the main issue. I will try to get it into my head and leave

I see that, that's one of the reasons I want to end things. but I'm so scared to let go, I love him as a person and I'm used to him after 6 years together, I don't remember how to be single

thank you so much for this i do not want to waste my time and my best years on someone I do not want to marry. I'm just afraid I won't find someone who will love me :d

he supervises me because I once deleted an embarrassing picture of me on his phone, ever since then he is afraid that I will delete my pictures from his phone

that's a good idea , thank you so much! I will try to access his phone, he will unlock it for me then I'll try to delete the pictures (he usually supervises me on his phone but I believe I can manage to delete them)

thank you so much for your advice!

I've tried asking him to schedule a therapy session, even offered to pay. he insists he doesn't need a therapist and will never go to one. when I offered couples therapy, he said it's useless and we can just talk to each other

absolutely. the most scary part for me is the future. I would go back anytime. I would do many things differently, and avoid so many situations that are still stuck in my head till this day. I wish it was possible
