Hey everyone,
Im new here, looking for some honest advice. Ive been with my boyfriend for almost 5 years, but for 3 out of those 5 years, I feel like we fight more than we are in love. I have tried to communicate openly and respectfully with him recently, but he has an EXTREMELY short temper. He also forgets things so quickly. It gets frustrating. I have been trying to get to the bottom of this, making myself believe that it was some sort of mental disorder. I obviously cant approach him about it, because thats highly offensive for someone to hear. Every time I would try to communicate with him about how we could work on our relationship, within the drop of a hat I feel like he changes into someone I no longer recognize, it sometimes reminds me of a horrible temper tantrum a child would have. I always try to calm him down, but it gets worse, and he cusses a lot! Its scary. I have been putting up with the cursing for what seems like years, and he has promised me and sworn on his moms life he would stop, but not even 2 days later it starts back up. It makes me feel SO depressed and worthless. I don't know if i am in denial and afraid to get out of this relationship...anyone with similar experiences? What did you do?
