Thank you, Monklet80 and Peppermint.
I’m…scared. I think I’m going to end it. I might not be as happy as I had painted myself to be in my initial post. It’s tough when it’s not as clear as domestic violence or something like that, that you’re supposed to leave.
Something happened over the weekend. It’s just one of those little things that actually provide clues to bigger issues in the relationship. She was upset about something I’d done and instead of telling me how she felt like an adult, she chose the passive aggressive route. I confronted her right away and only then she told me that she was upset and why. Instead of taking the time to ‘coach’ her that that’s not how an adult behaves in a healthy relationship, for the first time, I just left. Needed some place to cry so I just went to the movies and cried in the dark. I’ve got no friends to support me through this. It’s hard. I’ve been googling ‘ending a long term relationship’ a lot. Haven’t been able to stop crying, hopefully my work mates buy my allergy story.
