Have you ended the relationship yet?
@Fishnips well done for leaving especially with a young baby.Peaky- this is how my last relationship started. I left very recently with our 6 month old daughter, though we sadly share a house. He's still not taking any responsibility for his actions and he's telling me I've simply not tried to make it work and "if I loved the family I'd make it work"
Even having a near breakdown and telling him I'm leaving hasn't prompted him to be sorry for his actions. That's how abusers are.
Please leave. I know it's hard. I know it's even harder when you're made to feel like you're a horrible person and unlikable. But it won't get better. It'll get harder. Don't let it get to a point where you're living together with shared finances etc and/or the abuse gets worse.
Breaking up is so hard but within a few weeks you'll see the light at the end of the tunnel and you'll wonder why you ever let somebody make you so unhappy.
Ooh yes definitely I know all about the jumpy anxious mess! Cant believe you went through it for 6 years how sad! I am glad you are out of that now and happy
If your still asking for advice I take it your still with the guy? No more can be said to you! Now you have to make the decision and if you decide to stay then you know what lies ahead.
Good. Please also block him to minimise any chance of him worming his way back into your life. People like this don’t like to be told no so he will be fuming that you have ended it. You will honestly be happier without him. Take care xxYes guys i have ended it
Great advice from everyone and good to know I am not alone and there is nothing wrong with me haha.
Well done @Peakyblinders I hope he understands and leaves you at peace with your decisionYes guys i have ended it
Great advice from everyone and good to know I am not alone and there is nothing wrong with me haha.
Very proud of you for finding that strength! And I hope you enjoy your new life without that person leeching off your energy and emotionYes guys i have ended it
Great advice from everyone and good to know I am not alone and there is nothing wrong with me haha.

Was he bothered?Thanks everyone! Was so hard but knew it had to be done! x
You're a strong woman. Don't let him try and suck you back in because I bet he will try to. He may promise he'll change but he won't. Please, if he does this, re-read this thread to remind yourself of what he's like. Don't fall for any of his charms, you are better off without him.Thanks everyone! Was so hard but knew it had to be done! x
Well done. You won’t regret it. Just stay strong if he starts with the promises!Thanks everyone! Was so hard but knew it had to be done! x
From my experience, and I know it's not all men, but I have noticed some men do try and 'move on' quickly, straight onto the next woman so to speak. The rebound relationship tends to crash though (..and then they come sniffing back around).He did try to come back to me but i tried to stay strong. He told me he loved me in one of the messages and then a week and a half later he is on a date with/seeing someone else. Typical traits thought isnt it! Did set me back a bit but I know I need to be strong.
Anyone got any experiences of guys rebounding really quck?
Yes this is what i thought - Like he was messaging me saying he loves me, misses me, Im his beautiful girl etc and then next thing i know a week and a half he is seeing someone else - I mentioned it and he said he had seen me liking guys pics on instagram and posting selfies of myself (which i always do anyway) so thats why he has gone out and dated someone else. So seems to me he did it out of spite but maybe he is happy cos as far as I know he is still dating her. Although I knew the relationship wasnt right it is still a massive kick in the teeth as I honestly didnt think he would move on so quickly. Deep down I dont think he is happy and I think he has done it to fill a void but who knows. Its just a kick in the teeth though isnt it.From my experience, and I know it's not all men, but I have noticed some men do try and 'move on' quickly, straight onto the next woman so to speak.

One of my ex boyfriends told me he loved me on the Saturday, dumped me on the Sunday, was with a new woman a few days after that. It's something I'll never really understand.
I don't have any advice, just stay strong and you'll get through it.
