I don’t know how to tell him I don’t want to talk to him anymore.
My thought is that because his messages are making you uncomfortable, you should respond to them slowly, briefly and then not at all. It would be kinder than ghosting him.I have been in a relationship with “Blake” for almost 10 years. Before we met, I was with “Kaden,” the father of my kids. It was a loveless relationship. Kaden was mean and cold and often had angry outbursts.
He no longer touches me and makes no effort to show me love or appreciation. He’s a good provider financially, but he thinks he doesn’t have to do anything more than that. My self-esteem has suffered greatly. I have suggested counseling, but he refuses. Any advice will be appreciated.Because Blake refuses counseling doesn’t mean that you couldn’t benefit from it.
He acknowledges me when I say that I’ve heard this one before, and then he keeps right on with the story. He does this with just about everyone, not only with me.
