[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why have you been keeping your honest thoughts to yourself? You can be honest and kind at the same time. You shouldn't need to reach a breaking point and blow up to express valid concerns.

You can just tell him the truth . . . I see a pattern here. I don't believe it's going to change. It's causing me stress. I'm going to let go and let this be your situation to handle. I love you, and I want good things for you. At the same time, I can't participate in a toxic cycle any longer.

I'm not sure why gently explaining the truth didn't occur to you . . . I would consider why you walk on eggshells and think that dishonesty = kindness.[/quote]
OP here. I clarified that we have discussed it before. He is in therapy so it’s a topic that hasn’t been avoided. I’ve bought books for “us”, played podcasts. But I really blew up and was brutally honest this time around. I think I just realized life is too short for this, and I want out. I want to be free, even if he can’t break away. [/quote]
