ignore the jerks...don't stay w/ him if thats not gonna make u happy...it'll just make u miserable and if u don't want this relationship, end it...trust me, i just got outta one that i had felt this way in...just tell him how u feel and why he doesn't make u happy, but if u love him and there's something that u both could do to work it out, try patching things up and get on w/ it. GOOD LUCK!!!

Leave his @ss...if it's weird and doesn't feel right, then that's not a relationship you need to be in. Just because you've been together for 2 years doesn't mean you have to stay together for old times sake. If he keeps leaving, this time you be the strong woman and walk away. Trust me, Honey, I know. I did it and I am much better for it. You may love him, but he obviously is not treating you the way you deserve to be treated and you need to cut your losses and get out.

So you're hangin in there out of fear of being alone?\n\nHmmm, really bad basis for a relationship.  No one else can make you happy.  You're the only one who controls that.   He's obviously not producing positive feelings in you so time to walk away.\n\nYou do need to find something though that interests you (solo) so that you can learn to feel comfortable in your own skin...ie: being alone, loving yourself for who you are, etc.  \n\nThere's nothing wrong with you.  The sooner you love and respect yourself, the less you'll choose (unconsciously or otherwise)  to be bothered by him.  Sounds like your feelings aren't so mixed.

If you feel that way then it's not a healthy relationship and you should dump him. Love should make you feel like you'll burst from happiness. If it doesn't feel right it's not. Maybe one or both of you is/are suffering from depression. Maybe he has no respect for you. Is he Physically or verbaly abusive? If he is he won't let you go that easy. There could be lots of reasons for your feelings. You deserve happiness and should keep looking for it. Close this chapter of your life. Move on. Avoid guys like your boyfriend that make you unhappy.

Ive been with my b&#92;f for 7years now.I'm 23 now,he's 7yrs older than me.For the first 4 years our family's had issues with us being together.we moved in together only 3months into it while i was living with a girl friend.its had its up and downs but has been a great life.my advice to you would have to be,that you continue strong in the relationship that you have,don't worry to much about the negativity that continues to linger around you and your man.If he makes you happy and you know that he is all good for you,then you have nothing to worry about.wish you all the best....

Sweety love hurts, but it is not good to stay in an unhealthy relationship. If you are pouring out you heart to this guy and he gives you the opposite treatment, Why stay? Why be with someone that treats you bad? You deserve better. You need to realize that you are a beautiful person inside and out and you deserve much more than you are getting. You are probably afraid to be alone, but it's only for a short while, you will get someone better. Alone is good, less drama.

Well if you cant resolve your problems you should get out of it.There is someone out there who will love you the way you need to be loved .Dont risk missing out on that by staying with someone who makes you miserable.

the question is are willing to stay with him or not... i mean if your not ready to handle a little drama with him then maybe he isnt the one.

If your not happy you should not stay with her. Its not fair for you or her. You will probably never be happy and it will only get harder to leave her.

Money does not buy happiness. If the man is good to you and you love him nothing else matters. You said it yourself he is perfect, what more could you ask for. I would stay in a one room apartment if that's all we could afford and the man is perfect. You can also work to help financially. No one knows what will come next, even a rich man can go bankrupt then what do you have if you were only in it for the money?

Kind understand where your coming from.If you told him you want him  to move and he still wont then start going  out and have fun make him want to leave. i know its hard because you care for him but not love him,but if you don't show him your serious things are going to be the same and does not far for nobody.

Let him know how you feel if things remain this way get out while you can. If he loves you he will change his ways. Things will only get worse if you done deal with them now.

Hmmm.  This is a tough one.  I can only give you a little bit of personal advice...take it for what it's worth.  I dated a man (and I am not proud of this by ANY means) who was in prison (for fleeing the police.  I know, I know. Please don't judge...I was young and stupid!) I went into this relationship thinking that I would be able to change him. That was the biggest mistake I ever made.  I've learned that no matter how much you try, that person will never change unless THEY want to.  If he doesn't want to change, it's not worth your unhappiness to stay with him. Life is too short to put up with the bulls*it!\n\nOn the other hand, have you tried talking to your man about these issues?  Does he know how you feel?  He may be willing to listen.  Maybe you will need to compromise with him.  Maybe he will be willing to change his ways if you're willing to change a little too.  I'm getting married in November and have come to realize that the only way a relationship will survive is if both people give a little and take a little.  Just be honest to him, and to yourself.  Go with your gut feelings.  Afterall, it's YOU that really matters in the end.  Good luck!!

yes, because you will start to want to feel that way and he isn't doing it for you. you wont be happy and you will either leave ir cheat or be miserable. not fair to either of you.

HE DOESN'T LOVE YOU!!!!!!   and there is nothing wrong with you!!!!  I'm sorry if this will hit you hard, but from what you are saying something is definetly wrong with this guy, and he is just using you!!   If he is telling you to get away, then you may need to make some Big changes with yourself and your baby

You should tell him the truth, that you are not ready for this long term relationship, and that you think he would be happier with someone else. It is just too much for you at this point and you should tell him that, and how he can't pressure you in to anything you don't want to do. Tell him you care about him deeply but that you dont feel the same way as him. He might say that if you cared for him that you wouldn't do this, but it is because you care and you want him to be happy. Stand your ground and don't give in to guilt.

Ask yourself if you can live with all the in differences sounds like it might be difficult to always have him being the one who is right and in control you have to do what makes you happy any relationship is a 50/50 deal :)
