Was he secretly laughing me inside this whole time? I almost feel stupid now. I don't know if I can turn to him for support ever again. And how can I have a future with someone I can't turn to?! I think it's about time to get back into therapy because I clearly can't talk to anyone here and I need to let it out to someone at times.
All my Dr has me one right now is a mood stabilizer, and let me tell you that my bf EXCEEDS the limits of my medication! I mean, he KNOWS how moody I am. He just chooses to believe that I could control it if I wanted to. What I do is give him fair warning that it's time to leave me the Hell alone and give me some space! And if he persists in trying to touch me, cuddle me, play wrestle or what have you, I WILL end up clawing him, throwing shoes at him, back handing him or whatever until he leaves me alone! Not the best way of dealing with it, I know. But when someone refuses to respect your personal boundaries and you have these issues and HAVE GIVEN SEVERAL WARNINGS......well??
As to how we've made it this long, I really don't know! I don't understand why either one of us put up with the other in all honesty! We seem more like roommates than a couple of you ask me. I don't feel as though we do the things other couples do. We basically have our own separate lives, and then our time together, apart from that. I'm not sure I like it either! I spend a lot of time feeling isolated because of it. As if we're not a team effort in things, you know?
