My boyfriend is garbage at comforting me. He’s young and selfish and it hurts.. I was having pain from an abortion and asked for a back rub but he had to Google something first. I didn’t get a back rub until an hour later and it was half assed/short lived. Meanwhile he always wants to be cuddled and have back scratches and I do it for him… I don’t get the love I need. It’s always what he wants. His anxiety, his frustration, his stress.

The day I took the last 4 pills to complete the abortion he called me screaming about dumb s*** and was mad that I wasn’t thrilled to see him later. I can never tell him how I feel because he turns into a victim.

All I do is try to make him feel safe in this relationship because he was hurt before. I need love. Please just show me more affection. I’m falling apart and feel so alone.
