I am confused (which does not take much)......

You want out of a relationship?? Well then you are out of it. It takes two to make any relationship work. If either one wants out - then the relationship is over. Period.

Now if he does not want to accept that - then he has a problem, not you.

Lastly, if I was hearing you correctly - if he will not "let" you end the relationship - then run like hell from him. Not only is that creepy, I promise you he is dangerous. No joke. Cut him off cold and get a restraining order if you need to.

Best wishes to you.
