It's a difficult situation, when the person you love more than anything else in the world is disrespecting you. But - is begs the question, why do you love him/her? Are you really in love, or have you just become dependent on the person? I'd suggest talking to him before breaking anything off. Tell him how you feel, and how what he does hurts you, and how you feel disrespected. If he loves you back, he'll feel awful for putting you through all that emotional suffering. If not, then it's time to seriously re-evaluate the situation, and time to break it off. No one deserves to be mistreated - ESPECIALLY from the one person who is supposed to be there to love and support them, through thick and thin.

this thing happened to me. at the begining of the relationship I didn't really care for him..but because I saw he really cared for me I started to get closer to him till I actually started to love him. but this is the moment when he started to change. he refused to go out with me but when one of the guys asked him out he didn't refuse. he also kept avoiding to come and see me, to talk to me...and sooo on. I told him that I don't like his behaviour, that he didn't give me atention anymore and things were ok for maximum 3 days. after that he started acting again like a total jerk. but I couldn't leave him. and now I realised that I couldn't leave him because I was afraid of loneliness and not because I loved him. love stoped a long time ago. this things went on; till one day when he told me that he wants us to break up. and I was like ...ok.... no tears no nothing. I'm so happy that he took this decision. I'm so happy right now and calm...

it's hard to dump someone that you love. but I think that as women we should make ourselves respected. if you didn't know how to gain his respect it's partly your fault. you could still hope that the other person is going toi change but this rarely happens. if he doesn't really want to change than he won't do it for you because you ask him to. so it's better that you find your courage to end the relationship before it's to late
