"I don't want to visit your family," he scoffs.
"I'm not going to talk to your friends anymore," he says to me.
"I don't want you talking to my friends without me, try not to get too close to them," he tells me.
His words are a jab in my heart, but I love him.
"You want to do something?" I ask him.
"I'm busy," he mumbles.
"I'm not as obsessed with you as I used to be," he says casually.
Don't fight him
Don't ask for more
Don't tell him the issues you have
He'll deflect
He'll tell you you're wrong
He'll make up excuses
He'll blame it on you
He'll stop talking to you
He loves you...
Loving him hurts.
