I have codependency issues and my boyfriend is insecure. Our emotional issues play off one another. I’ve come to the point where I can’t do this anymore. He says he can’t either. We love each other and want to make it work. We are going to meet with a couple’s counselor this weekend. However, I don’t even know if I’ll make it to the weekend. He drives me to the point of hating him sometimes. We only see each other on weekends and Wednesdays. When we’re together, everything is good. When we don’t see each other, we text or talk on the phone and that’s when communication turns into fighting. He takes a lot of things to heart, then I have to spend the rest of the day over explaining and reassuring. It’s exhausting and destructive. I love him and hate him. I want to walk away because he doesn’t communicate with me in a healthy way. I want to stay because he’s making an effort by seeing a counselor. I’m frustrated and don’t know what to do. I’m torn.
