His answer is always the same "Because I love you." Which is such a hard thing for me to grasp. For a long time I didn't believe much in that whole you have to love yourself before you can let someone else love you, but I am paying the toll for that now...

Sometimes I feel like if I was just gone, he'd be much better off, much happier than he is now.

I am glad that we have significant others in our lives that deem us worthy and lovable and are willing to help us and support us. My fiance says "We will get better together."
do you ever feel like you don't know what love is...and therfore you cna't recognise it...like I mean...I know I love my bf...because I feel safe...and I lvoe spending time with him....but I ahve been in abusive relaitonships...where I thoguth the person lvoed me...but did not...I look back and I am like...how did I not see the signs
