After 3 years I have decided to end my relationship. I thought it wouldn’t hurt even close to how it does but it does hurt. What hurts a lot is giving your all for so long and receiving the bare minimum. Telling myself everyday that “he will change” for him to only get worse. I loved with every part of me, I cried hoping everyday that I’d finally be enough. It took me a while to break apart from such a toxic cycle. I lost myself in the midst of my desires. I’m not okay right now, but I will be.
