I hate when people ask why you stay! I know exactly why people stay! The same reasons I stay. Bc he gives just enough hope to make you hang on a littl longer...bc you miss what you used to have together and think you can get it back...bc he makes promises and things get better for a while...bc he says he loves you wants and the relationship...bc you've got so much invested already...fear of the unknown...fear of failure...and the paralyzing indecision about it all.
