      Started a relationship in (month removed by Moderator), started off great however things started getting bad. Various arguments over minor things and eventually got worse. From him throwing things at me and taking his bad moods out on me.

      Started to think about everything because I knew it would cause an argument, he noticed the relationship wasnt what it once was. When I would try and fix it by saying we need to talk about things instead of splitting up. However it was a cycle of everything would be ok for (number removed by Moderator) days then we woud split up for (number removed by Moderator) weeks and then he would come back. I would explain we cant keep doing this as its unhealthy.

      its like when he rings (while we are apart) im expected to answer straight off however when I have tried talking to him he tells me to leave him alone (its like a game of cat and mouse)

      The relationship is now over, however I feel so deflate, exhausted and sad. I feel better as now I do not feel I am walking on egg shells but its like was this relationship toxic/abusive.

      I just feel alone and it seems the memories we had and time spent together was pointless.

      thank you, I called some help line last night and the women was like THAT IS not abuse. Tbh that made me feel even worse.

      The sad part is I really hoped me and him could work out.

       

      Was horrible the  love bombing and planning the future to boom blocking me as if I don’t matter.

      I think because he could never have control as I have my own car, money and home he didn’t like that.

      Always complained about other peoples fault as if he never done anything wrong.

      However I do see a change in his behaviour from the start of our relationship to when we finished.

      Alongside being terrible with money despite having a decent paid job.
