Hi Lisa,

Not sure if anyone is even reading these posts anymore but I just came across this blog. I am in the exact same situation as you and I feel the same! It is refreshing to know that I am not crazy and I am not all alone in this like I have felt for so long. I am hoping that you were finally able to let that relationship go. I hope that I can get to that point with mine. I just blocked him today so this is going to be a long road for me. I need to stop hoping and accept that I cannot change him or his ways and that loving someone is not enough to make a relationship work.

Thank you to the rest of you for your great advice, these are things I have needed to hear and will try my hardest to remember when I start feeling weak for him again.
