I definitely was in a relationship like this for a year and finally ended it. I told him to lets be friends. I love him but it wasn't going anywhere. I felt like no one else would want me if i wanted to leave him. So this post is 100% true

I empathise with each and every honest confession or rather careful observations made by the writer. A part of me slipped away and feelings were like vortex. In the end , I couldn't even explaining what I was going through. But having my parents see through me, helped me out of it and now I feel like myself again and learning to shed away the patches it left on me.

Definitely feel the same way about my relationship! It's hard to walk away. But yet I feel all of these listed 😔
