my boyfriend and i are having a serious discussion right now. basically he’s been through a lot and struggles with a lot of demons that tear him apart. i learned that his past exes (because i asked) heshurt and he is afraid of hurting me. i love him so much that i want to help him and heal him. he deals with depression and anger issues like outbursts and stuff and sometimes it stings but i this is literally clinical and not because he’s whiny or whatever. i trust him when he says it’s never aimed directly to me. he’s my whole world after the real world tried to tear us apart. so i asked him does he love himself. he said he doesn’t know.
