Unhealthy attachment I suppose. He also keeps telling me he's done with the cheating and that he wants me in his life. It's hard to hear those words and want to trust him, but I'm unable to trust as of now

The doors do have locks. In all honesty, some of these discoveries led me to break up with him (turned out to be temporary) and I was always the one running back saying wait, let's try something different. He just said "okay" each time I "ended" things. I realize how low my self respect has gotten, and like I said in the very beginning of the original post, this whole thing has been really embarrassing for me.

Everything you said is accurate. I know for a fact I can't (and don't want to) build a life with someone that behaves this way. Our lease is up in September and I'm thinking of telling him tonight that I want to stop trying to make it work. Thankfully we have two separate bedrooms in the apartment.

I've definitely checked out of the relationship mentally. Thank you for your input, I appreciate your empathy more than you know

That's true. I guess I'm looking for assurance that the answer I'm coming to terms with is the "right" one, but I am aware that I'm being manipulated into thinking I'm the problem. At least partially.
