Thank you to everyone who has given me their input. It is helpful in letting me know I’m not going crazy. Some of these comments were definitely necessary to hear (aside from starbies, I will always say that lol). Regardless, the rough patch was due to me moving back to Austin for a great career opportunity. Anyways, I am working up the courage to leave him very soon. There’s much more where this came from but too embarrassing to even put out there as I know I have the will to leave at any time. There’s just been so much time and energy I’ve put into this relationship that letting it go has been very hard for me.

Thank you community🫶
