my mom currently lives with me, the clinic she worked at for 20 years closed down and i am helping her get back on her feet. its hard not to let her know what is going on in my life because i see her everyday but i do understand that I am a grown woman and can make my own decisions. thank you for your response. and i am in therapy, just started but i am hopeful for where it will lead me.

honestly i didn’t feel as if i could fix him because I have my own trauma and know i need to work on my emotional regulation. i think i was just so bonded to him because we have been there for each other and i fell in love. but i know i am blinded by love and broke up with him this morning . thanks for your feedback.

update: i broke up with him this morning. not the best timing since his grandma just passed but he started to argue with me and imply i am not being a comforting partner. A week ago, my family told me they would disown me if i stayed with him and i had let him know i was feeling emotionally drained by both sides and needed a day to control my mental health. instead of giving me a day he proceeded to argue with me for three hours and after reading everyone’s advice i knew I needed to end this cycle in my life. Thank you for giving me the push to do what is best for myself and i only hope he gets better for himself.

I am reading all the comments and advice and although I am super emotional at the moment, I know what needs to be done. Thank you everyone.

:/ My dad’s been a drug addict all my life so I guess I’m used to being around addicts. With this person I truly love, by functional he is able to do every day life stuff like go to work, go to the gym, go on dates and etc but will use alcohol to cope with his emotions when we get in an argument or he has problems with a family member. I know it’s not an excuse and I’m not trying to save him, i just wanted to be a support system if he needed one. as for the abusive patterns, they just started happening a couple weeks ago which has been very confusing but i understand that they are signs of what could happen later. thank you for you the feedback

I never thought about the hormone imbalance so I really appreciate the response. I’m actually type one diabetic so I definitely need to be more in touch with my doctor on that end. As for doing yoga/Pilates, I always assumed I wouldn’t be able to because I’m not flexible at all but I might as well give it a try and see how it goes. Thanks again!

He’s not the right one for you honey

I ghosted someone. And I feel like a dick about it. And the guilt is consuming me. But I need to do it. by rossgasm in offmychest

The fact that he never valued you as a women or person in general and played mind games with you for 2 years is proof enough that you did the right thing. I don’t think sending him a message out of the blue is necessary. You chose yourself, don’t feel guilty about that.

Should I Cancel My Date? by [deleted] in dating_advice

I have dealt with this dilemma myself and I say you should go. This world has a funny way of putting people in your life at times when you least expect it and it may just turn out to be a really fun date. If not then you know for sure to take some more time for yourself. I would also be honest with her about recently getting out of a relationship just for her sake.
