So I’ve been dating this guy for about a year. We met under some certain circumstances. He has a girlfriend that lives with him (not married yet), and he asked me to give him 3 months and everything will be resolved in the sense that he’ll break up with her and all. I later fell in love with him and he never left her. The relationship was full of ups and downs. He ignores me sometimes, barely calls, and only pays attention to me when he’s feeling horny. After sex, he goes back to barely talking to me. Yesterday, he posted the other girl’s picture and I told him that he doesn’t even respect how I’ll feel about it. His response was that what do I think we are, that the both of us are just playing games and if I’m tired of the game, I can opt out. I cried and cried because since I started dating, no one has ever fought to keep me in their lives. I’m a good person but I keep coming across people that hurt me. The next day, he called and kept on apologizing, but I can’t get all the disrespect out of my mind. So he asked we should meet and talktalk, only for him to inform me that he’s busy when it was time.
I know what is right and wrong, and I’ve seen from others what it feels like to be loved and treated right by a man. But my last 3 relationships have dealt with my self-esteem to the point that I barely recognize myself. No one has ever fought for me to stay in their life. They all end up using me. I’m not a troublemaker. I’m someone that loves love, but it seems like it’s not meant for me. I just want a partner, someone that will love me.
