writes:My boyfriend and I have been dating for a little over a year. During the early months of our relationship, his father had passed away of a horrible battle with liver cancer. Since then, he has felt it necessary to be the "man of the house" and take over all of the duties of his father. Which is completely understandable, but I feel that deep down, it is putting a toll on him and stressing him out. Since all of this, our relationship has reached a downward slope and I don't know how to fix it. :( we seem to not be able to get along or agree on anything like we used to and it hurts my heart so much. We are so so so close and obviously have been through a lot together and I want it to work so much but I dont know how to fix things. We broke up for about a month in January because he said that he wasn't happy.. but less than a month later he came to me begging to get back together and said that it was all him, and he is just unhappy in general and it had nothing to do with me. Since we have been back together it has reached the same downhill slope. And even worse, his "friends" have been trying to convince him to break up with me and be with another girl. He admitts that he has thought about doing so, but he loves me and can't see himself doing it. Is it bad for our relationship and a red flag that he even thought about doing this?? I'm in a rut and don't know what to do. If anyone can please help and give me any advice I would be so greatful. Thank you.

 Sometimes when couples break up and get together again they may be better than b4 or they will be worse and in your situation its look like your relationship become worse
My advice is to break up with him because he is not trying to be better or work things up between you as I see it he can't let you go because he is used to have you around him all this time and just the idea of thinking of Being with another girl is a sign to you that your relationship is over, but keep in your mind that its his lose cause you been there for him and trying to work your relationship and he is the one who screwed things up
