You really need to look into roots of your willingness to be disrespected like this.


YES. This. You have to look at yourself and be honest with yourself. Are you afraid of being alone? I understand this fear, but at the same time, maintaining or reviving your own sense of self respect is far more important for your self esteem.

What we allow with others is how they will continue to treat us. If you stay, you are allowing the disrespect. Often, the only way to truly put a stop to disrespectful behavior is to leave the person.
