I’m not really in the mood to celebrate one year with my boyfriend. The past year has been full of deceit, infidelity, secrets, lies, and disappointment.

I love him and want things to work out, but he has hurt me so much before and during our relationship. I’ve thought about breaking up with him so many times during the last few months. This isn’t the first relationship for either of us and we’re both adults.

Has anyone ever been in a similar situation? How’d your one year anniversary go? Did you stay together or break up?
