I have a bf but i’ve been talking to a new guy

hi all. long time no talk. i’m the 20 year old girl with the 29 year old bf. i haven’t posted in awhile because, well, i just haven’t cared to i guess. i don’t care as much as i used to. i went to therapy from march (since the DV incident) to early october. i feel really good and my anxiety is way less. i just feel like a healthier person overall. thanks so much to everyone who has helped me the past 2 years. i know i posted a lot. so thank you.

anyways, i’ve come to the conclusion that i’m going to have to break up with my bf for good sometime soon. i just know i’m not in love with him anymore and i think we’re both still together because we don’t want to be alone... our relationship should have ended a longggg time ago. anyways, recently, i’ve been talking to this guy casually. we met on tinder last year when my current bf and i were temporarily broken up. we never met and everything has been over text. we don’t flirt and he’s really good at respecting my boundaries and understanding i’m in a relationship. i convide in him and he convides in me. recently i’ve been getting these weird feelings for him, but it’s weird because we’ve never actually met in person... idk. is what i’m doing bad rn? there’s no flirting. just let me know what you think

    Leave your boyfriend. You aren't happy with him.

    You may or may not have something with this new guy. It's hard to say until you've met. But please don't let the fate of your current relationship hinge on this new guy - you need to leave your current boyfriend.

        I mean that you shouldn't make a decision about your current relationship based on whether or not anything happens with the new guy.

    This is the best news I've had in a good, long while! Life is like getting your legs waxed, because sometimes you just gotta take a deep breath, and then rip that wax off! Sure, it will probably hurt, but in the end it's totally worth it! We're all cheering you on, honey, so dump that sorry-ass sack of shit!

    You can do it!

    Sometime soon? Do it right now and stop trying to justify why you're stringing him along.

        I'm sorry for your boyfriend too. You're having a romantic affair, albeit over text. You don't explain anything about violence in your post, but if he was violent you should have dumped him long ago instead of stringing him along.
