I'm getting a very short fuse from his depression/insecurities

Question - (17 December 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 17 December 2008)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I will keep this brief. I met a man who, over time, I fell deeply in love with. He then went through a stint of depression that was very taxing on the relationship. As he comes out of this difficult time in his Life, he is needier and more insecure than I have ever experienced with anyone in my Life. On a daily basis he asks me if I would cheat on him. On an hourly basis he actually accuses me of being unfaithful. I have been cheated on before and I have explained to him that the feeling that he creates inside of me when he constantly falsely accuses me of infidelity hurts more than actually being cheated on. If I do not have my phone on me at all times, he thinks that I am doing something to hurt him. While he was depressed he was extremely verbally abusive and I know that as I unfold the feelings that he created inside of me that I will have some major issues to deal with myself. I have explained to him that I would never do anything to hurt him. I have showed him through my pure love that I would never do anything to hurt him. How much is too much and am I being unreasonable for having a shorter fuse for his damaging behaviors?
