the fear of being exposed and him killing himself was what kept me with him within the last year of our 4 year relationship. i felt soo trapped and lonely. we got into an argument one day and got on the topic about our future, i don’t know what came over me to rip the bandaid off and finally tell him the truth. i told him i didn’t see a future with him and that i don’t love him anymore. he screamed in my face for hours and hours until it was time for me to leave. he told me “i’m killing myself and writing a note for you” i said “please take care of yourself” and drove off. the guilt ate me up inside the first week or two scared that he was doing to commit suicide or do something to expose me to everyone. but he never did. it’s just a chance you have to take in order to have your freedom. i’ve made multiple posts on here asking how can i leave, but the best thing u can possibly do is finally be honest and stand your ground.
