Relationship Stress / by Squidneylikescats

...See more I'm going to be 27 soon. I stated dating my childhood crush when I turned 18 and we were together for 6 years. It was a really emotionally abusive relationship. He cheated on me emotionally and I would guess physically considering he would lie to me about where he was going and who he was with. He remained close "friends" with his exes who he told me he still loved and couldn't even tell me he loved me more than them at the very least. He always put their feelings before mine. He made me feel crazy for thinking i deserved to be respected and honored. Despite all of this, hes always been my favorite person in the world to talk to. Its just easy. We broke up about 3 years ago, went a year without speaking, reconnected and immediately got stuck in this weird half relationship scenario, just kind of ignoring any conflict or jealousy and putting it on the back burner when we're together. And we can't seem to let it go despite it being extremely unhealthy. I just went to his house while he was at work today ( I let him know I was going) and I dropped off his things and grabbed mine for probably the 50th time now.And now im both scared of not having him around again and scared of caving in and texting him because of those feelings. I really need to stop reconnecting with him so I can move on but its the hardest thing in the world to do every single time... We grew up down the street from each other as kids and I've spent my entire adult life being in love with him.
