I was going to break up with my boyfriend sometime this week; I’ve thought about doing so many times throughout our relationship and this is the closest I’ve come to it. Then tonight he texted me and asked if he was feeling down and asked if he could talk about it. He ended up coming to my apartment where he all but broke down and I consoled him. He’s sleeping over tonight because he doesn’t want to sleep in his dorm. I love this man very much and don’t want to break up, and see a future with him, but I feel like I’m super toxic these days. I have severe anxiety and am lately feeling very depressed and have been slowly breaking down myself, and usually he’s the strong one I can lean on who helps me get through my own times when I’m feel down. I don’t want to keep stressing him out when he’s got all the other stressors in his life, and invite at a point where I have stopped caring about getting better. I don’t know what to do and it makes me really upset and scared to think of us breaking up and him finding someone else, even though I know he deserves so much better than me. He was my best friend through all of high school and we’ve been dating for two years (we’re 19-20). I’m just going through it these days 🙃

  • I know this comment is totally unnecessary but are you sure that breaking up is really the best choice for both of you?

  • I’m no expert on love or anything, however you should tell him how you’re feeling. You’re both supposed to be able to support and lean on each other for help.
    Sit down with him and just let him know everything at a pace that makes you both comfortable. The only way the relasonship between the two of you can work is if you both want it to work. It sounds to me like you want it to work, but you don’t want to be a burden on him. If he loves you, chances are he wants to be there for you as well.
