My Partner Knows My Trigger And Does It Anyway

[WillyKat]

What do you think the stress of staying is doing to you?

The stress of staying will be my undoing. Looks like either way, I'm going to get undone.

Gist, he's in no position to tell you anything. It is one thing when our partners trigger us with something innocent and unintentional. It is a whole other thing when a partner does it intentionally, that's not a partner to me. A partner has your back, intentionally triggering someone is not having one's back. If he truly loved you and cared, he would back you up and try and be as understanding as possible. I guess what I'm trying to say is, when you love someone you do everything you can to make them happy. This is far from that, he has no right to tell you what you experience, that's crap. If he is truly sorry he won't do it again, just saying.

I hope you two figure this out or you figure this out, either way keep your head up and stay strong. Best of wishes to you.

Also best of wishes to others going through similar situations. I hope you all find your way.

Thank you all so much! I can't express how much it means to be validated. I left him last week. You guys were the strength that helped me leave.

Thank you!

I am glad you found the strength to get out of that relationship. I know it must have been hard as all break ups generally are. You always had that strength gist you just needed someone to remind you of that. Much respect and I whole heartedly hope you take some time for yourself, and eventually meet someone who is good for you and treats you right.

Best of wishes.
