Is it normal to feel helpless in my relationship?

3 Comments

my boyfriend and i are very much in love, but he is very manipulative and stubborn. sometimes i feel like i need to get out of our relationship because it gets really hard at times, but i know that i will never be able to break up with him.

we have broken up two times now and we have always gotten back together but i'm too connected to him to try and live without him and it always makes me feel helpless.

i know he loves me and we have an amazing relationship most of the time, but there are times when i just don't know what i'm doing.

    Are you close to your family, or were you when you grew up? The world is full of people who dont want to be alone, even at the expense of staying with someone that only makes them happy occasionally. True love between couples will overcome anything, fear will overcome nothing. Dont become one of those girls who only leaves her man if she is falling into the arms of another one. Its not fair to you or the rest of the world. You are beautiful inside and out, maybe he needs a reminder?

    hmm? you have to find out why are you with him? relationships aren't supposed to feel like a trap. you shold get out and be on your own for a bit . You will see that you can live without him.

    That has red flags all over it. A lasting relationship is one that you equally enjoy. If you are having sex, stop. The right person is out there and accepting short of that is a divorce waiting to happen. Finding the right person for a life long relationship is the purpose of dating.
