Question - (30 March 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 30 March 2009)

My boyfriend suddenly started treating me horribly. I feel like jumping in front of a bus just to see if he'll show up at the hospital. Why can't I just break up with him? That would be the logical thing to do. I feel like he's mentally terrorizing me and I'm stuck. The relationship was good, great even, and I'm thinking he wants to end it, but wants me to break up with him, why can't he man up and face me?

Maybe he's crazy enough to think that by doing that, he won't hurt you as much.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (30 March 2009):

After a while, toxic relationships seem to spiral out of control so badly that both people don't even know what the problem is, what they want, or don't want. You get trapped into victimhood, you get comfortable with the drama, you begin to see manipulation as the norm. Your relationship sounds like a mess and there's no way the people on this board are going to be able to decipher the problem from such a short question.

Don't hit your head against a brick wall over and over. Dump this guy and CLEAR YOUR HEAD.
