Lost myself in this relationship
My boyfriend is a jealous person when it comes to guys. I deactivated all social medias, I stopped talking to mostly all my friends most were guys, I stopped hanging out with my friends. I never wanted him to get mad or think I was disrespecting him in any way. He became my only person I talked to and only person I hang out with. I'm a single mother so I can't really go out as much unless I have a babysitter and only go out with him.
He still has social media with plenty of girls, he goes out with his boys and I never know if girls are there, woman call him up for rides (they pay him). He's a very friendly social guy.... it's okay for him but not for me? I am so dedicated in this relationship working but he is not and I just realized that...
A couple of days ago I got mad because his phone kept ringing and ringing and it was his "friends." I never know who it is and when I ask he tells me dont worry about it. I went off on him telling him "you can't stop talking with your friends for a second!? Dedicate the time with me to me. You're always with them. I legit stopped going on, stop talking to everybody so you wouldn't get mad. All my messages are family, school, or commercials. And yours are of everybody" He responded to me "commercials? Is that what he call ppl now? You want me to feel bad for you or what?" I told him "no. I'm an introvert so I dont mind and I enjoy a lot of time to myself. I'm not much social anyway"
That was the end of that.
I completely lost myself in this relationship. I stopped doing everything i use to do because it bothered him. I stopped talking to my male bestfriend because he said my best friend looked like he liked me. When a guy would comment on my photo he would freak out, my #'s on Instagram go up he would argue with me if I was still looking for other guys and if not why was I accepting them. When guys would reply to my story on ig he would get furious! But I'm not allowed to get mad, and when I do im dramatic and toxic.
Now when he constantly gets online, seems my msg or doesn't reply it drives me crazy. He's always getting on to reply to other people but takes long to reply to me. I don't do that to him so that hurts. I did everything to make this work. He says he stopped talking to girls and going out to places so I wouldn't get mad. But he's always going out. Always. Even ditching me for them.
I lost myself. I have nobody now and can't go back talk to my guy friends or he will get mad. I feel as if I become so codependent on him for my happiness and he knows that and takes advantage of it
