Breaking up with fiancé

Gemma

Hello

I left my fiancé and my ring on Sunday and left the house and told him I was leaving. I’m so confused and hurt and I feel so depressed.

I love him so much, but we’ve been having a lot of arguments and he doesn’t listen to the things I say. He’s always moody and is rude to me over little things. He doesn’t give me the affection and doesn’t do small gestures which he used to. It’s almost as if he’s bored of the relationship, but when I confront him about it, and say that, he says he’s not and that he loves me so much.

I didn’t want to leave and I don’t want to break up, but I know I can’t keep letting him treat me the way he does because I am miserable more than happy and I feel like if someone really loves you they should do what they can to make you happy. He didn’t even get me a card for our anniversary although I got him a really thoughtful gift, but he didn’t even apologise or verbally say ‘happy anniversary’ - he just said ‘I was busy and forgot’ and that was it.

We are best friends and I do really love him and I know he loves me but he has so many issues and he can’t show me is love. I don’t know what to do. He came to me a day after I left and spoke to me. He said he loves me and doesn’t want to break up, but he’s sick of making me sad and doesn’t want to hurt me anymore. He asked me to come home but I said no and that I need time and space.

I don’t know what to do. He is a nice person and he cares for me and loves me but I feel invisible to him when I’m with him. He can’t focus on our relationship and I am not a priority to him nor is our relationship.

Has anyone experienced anything similar? Any words of advice ?
