Thank you so much, Anita.
I appreciate it.
You’re totally right. You nailed it.
He’s told me many times that I need to take responsibility for my own life.
I think I lost the ability to do this.
He’s my very first serious relationship and I’m just very immature.
I used to do everything by myself and I was better off. Once he showed up, a person who will do ANYTHING for me, I just sucked it all.
I stopped being an independent, fully capable of coping with stress person. I lost it.
I need to fix this.
I know it’s my fault. I really do abuse this poor little boy.

I’m actually surprised he’s still with me.
I really want to change it and help him be happy.

Thank you so much for this valuable response.
