But some men (me being one of them) have a tendancy to try and hide their worries of difficulties. When you show signs of caring, he laughes it all off and says he's fine right? He's not. Or he really is an ass. It's your job to find out what he is hurt by, or if finding out is worth your time, or if he is just an ass. Follow your feelings, and do what must be done. I'm just saying, he may be hurting, even if he doesn't show it in a way that would be obvious. If he is, he just doesn't want the burden to fall on you. Make sure you get what you want out of this relationship.

Miss I would kick him out of your house at least until he showed you a little respect. Sorry but I dont treat woman like this. Some guys never learn that just because they might have a good thing today--it does not mean it will be there forever. This type of guy is really stupid--because you have to work at any relationship. Just saying you love someone isnt enough. You have to show it to them. I hope this helps you out?

He uses sex to bond you to him more deeply and he has his hooks in you.
This man is toxic to you at the very least or at the worst he is pathological. Either instance will lead to furhter harm to you psychologically, emotionally and even physically, being with someone who emotionally abuses you in this way can actually make YOU sick.
The best thing to do is to walk away forever...no looking back, no friends, no friends with benefits no contact means no contact. If you have to change your phone number and other contacts then do so.
He may beg and plead and promise to change but don't you believe it. People like him NEVER change they are INCAPABLE of change and growth.
Read my Relationship Red Flags article on DC and follow the links listed there and by me and Ask Older Sister.
Do some research, do your homework and try to work out what this man really is, how this is an unhealthy relationship, what is it about you that would make you settle for such a relationship and how to heal and get on with your life and never choose another pathological man again as a partner.
Take care.

What are you doing with this asshole??
He's lazy, doesn't even TRY to get a job and treats you like SHIT?!!! This is madness. Any girl deserves better than this.

Well, I agree, he does sound like a real charmer. If you find that kind of behavior "hard to resist" then there will be some other men out there for you.
I think the fact that in the 7 months of your relationship he has repeatedly failed to buy you a birthday card is shocking behavior.

How can you tolerate all those stuff? You are being emotionally and mentally abused .
You don't deserve such rotten treatment from him .
Walk away and start a new life.
