My fiancé just out of the blue told me he is done because he cannot deal with the stress of my ex husband which he has been very supportive of and helpful with in the past. In fact, the stress there is very minimal compared to what it used to be, but my fiancé now obsesses over it. And to be very fair, until this happened and I spoke with one of his family members I did not even understand what PTSD all entailed. My research has really made me understand how PTSD affects him and our relationship. Things have been rough for a while now and that is his secondary reasoning. Twice three years ago when we first started dating he also broke up with me out of the blue because of stresses but both times he asked if we could get back together.
We have a son together and he has not given me any sort of timing on when I should move out. But he is being very cold to me, and yet replying to family members and friends who reach out to him with kind words.
Is he really done or just needs me out of his life for a while? I was hopeful at first but am losing hope. It's been about a week since he decided he was done. He was on the fence for about a week before that and like I said, this came out of the blue. Any advice/thoughts are appreciated. I now feel like I understand PTSD better but looking for some further thoughts on the situation.
