@patiomermaid how long have you been with your boyfriend if you dont mind me asking? do you live together or do you sometimes also feel like its a friendship/roommate feeling? im just trying to see if this is the norm impact on a supporter with a boyfriend with PTSD?
@patiomermaid we have been with eachother for nearly a year at the moment it feels like an exclusive friendship but still together if that makes sense.... im guessing alot of ppl feel like this when the other shuts down. Leaving is not an option for me right now and we dont want to lose...

@Ladyghosthunter thankyou for your reply. It is true... what your saying. But i must admit that it can feel like a test to see how much the heart/love can cope with. Thats why i said that if i feel that my heart/love for him cant take anymore i would promise to leave but for now i just want to...
