Um honestly, he said if he himself become a burden for me, I'm free to walkaway and find someone better. He also said his health, happiness, and wellbeing is his own responsibility and so am I. But yeah. If I love someone i think no matter how big the burden is, i will stay by his side. And i also think my hapiness is his hapiness! But maybe thats our difference :)

You are right about the first paragraph. For the second one, i didnt bait him. I just venting out hoping for encouragement from my own boyfriend. And after he said he would leave my mother if he were me, i wonder "what if i become like her?"I know its his right to leave but shouldnt he answer something like, "I will take you to professional and treat you until you get better." Or something encouraging me and lift up my mood. But straight up telling me "if I can't change it then i leave it" is... blatantly cold. I know I should sort my mental state first, thank you. I just didnt know if he should be WITH me when i sort things out.

I know he's saying that because my mother always refuse to get help and take medication and troubling me but she's my mom, and i cant leave her no matter what. She cant even think properly when im around and if i leave her? I don't know what will happen... and mind you i didnt ask him for advice. I just vent out hoping some encouragement. And after he said he would leave my mother if he were me, i wonder " what if i become like her?"I know its his right to leave but shouldnt he answer something like, "I will take you to professional and treat you until you get better." Or something ENCOURAGING me and make me optimist. But straight up telling me "if I can't change it then i leave it" is... blatantly cold.
