Have you been so attached to someone to where you think if you leave then the person will do something crazy like commit suicide? Right now, I am talking to someone just like that. Constantly, he tells me That if anything to happens between us then who will be there to cook for or help him with things or talk to him, or go places with him... But I am suffering, because I am truly not happy. At times I am happy, but 70% I am not. Oh god why do I keep living a lie? Can u hear me, can u see what I am going through? Please It’s been almost 3 years and I am still with this man. I just stay here and make him satisfied. I do not matter.. my feelings have become so numb because I don’t expect a change. So sad for me so so sad! I’m 24 and he is 68. What has my life become? I’m so ashamed.. but I just keep smiling!

Everyone is responsible for their own happiness. You are still young, but you won't always be. You don't have to leave them compeletely, you can be there, helping, but you shouldn't sacrifice your own happiness for someone, who does not even appreciate it by reciprocating the care you give.
Everyone is responsible for their own happiness. If you aren't able to be happy with him, and neither of you can solve the problems what are causing this, then he should accept it. Eventhough in cases like that it's easy to feel guilty, however what he does after that, is his responsibility and not yours.
I don't know what's between you two, but if he is threatening you by committing suicide, if you leave him, then it's emotional abuse, and you shouldn't be okay with that. Be understanding, but don't give up on your needs out of understanding.
You can still be friends, and care about eachother, even if the current thing isn't working out. In my oppinion you shouldn't leave him compeletely, but he should also understand that eventhough helping him makes you happy, but only if it's not the only thing you do. You need to live your own life aswell.
ReplyThank you so much friend. Your advice is really good and I will definitely take heed in listening.
ReplyYou don't have to continue living a lie. You have choices. It's up to you to make the right one. And if you don't, you will be the one to live the consequences.
ReplyThank you.
