A female reader, answerfromtheheart United States +, writes (25 August 2010):

answerfromtheheart agony auntI believe when it comes to your situation, the best thing to do is to follow your head.

In your head you know that you are not appreciated, you are not #1, by what you are describing you are not even close to #4.

I think your head is telling to to leave him because you think you deserve better than he has been giving you.

Your heart will tell you to stay, because we are emotional creatures and we do get attached. One person can never make it work. Two people have to want to work at the relationship and putting the other person in the place #1 to make a relationship work. I'm not sure if your guy would do that.

So I think it's best for you to follow your head and leave.

You should want better for yourself.

End it. You're not ready to settle at all. It's gone so wrong. You were feeling second best, so ended it. Then you got back together and you cheated. It's over. Best end it and move on.
