About a month ago, my boyfriend broke up with me to see other people. But he wasn't seeing other people.
We would still see each other. Often he would tease me a little that we could get back together, but I do not see that happening in the future.
The relationship had very good points, and also some very bad points. At times he could be emotionally and verbally abusive. He would hang up on me, not take my phone calls, give me the silent treatment, purposefully start arguments just to get a reaction, and other things like that. He could also be very loving, and very caring. He claimed he would do those things because he was fighting feeling like he was getting too close and going to get hurt.
I honestly still love the guy, but I do realize the relationship is toxic. Some advice on me getting putting the distance and time between myself and him? The last two weeks have been really nice between he and I, and then he made an ugly comment, and I called him on it. Then I was told he broke up with me because I would fight with him too much. I just can't take the yo-you effect any longer.
