Relationships

Relationships are suppose to be based on trust and love, but sometimes you find yourself in quite a different situation. My ex seemed nice enough, I also thought that he would be more mature because he was eight years older then me, I was wrong. Around other people he acted nice and sweet, sometimes he was.

I worked with him and that was one thing I was worried about, especially when he started getting possessive. I knew I should had broke it off then, but my mom thought I was being my stubborn self. Which I guess was partly true or at least I thought. Things were rocky, but he knew how to be the sweetest guy in the world. Too bad it was just an act, he started calling me names and putting me down.

He would get jealous if I talked to an old friend or got on Myspace, he would tell me the only reason to be on a web site would be to cheat on him. He got to where he would break dates to hang out with his friend. If I broke a date he would ask me a million questions of where have I been and what have I done. Also I couldn't go anywhere with my family, he was suspicious of me all the time. I was worried about hurting his feelings, well after a year and a half we broke up.

He asked me five times to marry him and I said yes, but he didn't mean it. He told me that he couldn't afford to get me an engagement ring, but then he turned around and bought a seven-hundred dollar bow. I asked him how he could afford to buy a bow and not a ring ( the ring I wanted was only one-hundred and fifty dollars) talk about your priorities.

I told him I was sick of feeling dead last on his priorities, so he told me it was over. He said that it was all my fault that it was over, because I would cuss him (only after he cussed me). That I was bossy and pushy (I am a little pushy, but within reason).

I was actually relieved when he called it quits, That was not a good relationship and who knows what would have happened later on.

Here's my advice to you: "If he starts calling you names, putting you down. It would be a good time to break up, relationships are based on trust and love. Sometimes you only think it's love, when really all it is, is a prison! I'm not saying don't leap in with faith and give him total trust, but don't let him control you, it will most likely only get worse and you deserve better then that".
