I honestly wouldn’t worry about why he is how he is but look into patterns of why would you choose someone like that? Is there a pattern? Do you oftedste people like that? Do you try to save them?

Saying that, him spreading STD and sleeping around without protection is a different story. I am not sure he wanted love and compassion. He likely wouldn’t be going around contracting and spreading STDs. Him leaving you is a blessing. Please cut all ties so you can heal and move on.

He wanted citizenship, but kept putting it off. Honestly, with Trump, I think it is a necessity for Latino Americans. ICE may not have a legal right to keep a Green Card holder from reentry, but they can and are harassing Latinos trying to legal reenter the country.

Regarding the acting-out issue, while probably due to his self-esteem issues, it did happen and I should have ended it then.

PS - We both wanted the same thing, a LTR. He was concerned that the 15 year age-gap (actually almost 16) scared him that I would die and leave him alone.
