Relationship Stress / by practicalCircle8946

...See more Hi, new to this but definitely would like some advice. I have been in an on/off 10 year relationship with my sons father. These past 2 years were my hardest out of the both of us because he wouldn’t let me go but he still wanted another girl. Basically have his cake & eat it too. This was going on for 2 years & I could never leave him because he always tried to make it better, or so I thought. For the past 3 months, things were going great! I mean greatest it’s ever been, trust & respect was going up! But as of recently, I found out that he had tried to reach out to this other girl again last month & he supposedly then decided to cut her off & focus on us. Being this person that I am, I decided okay, since things have been really good & we have been really working on ourselves to better our relationship, I figured this was just going to be something we can both work on to get through. I was struggling all week trying to process it but I made sure to let him know how I felt without saying things to bring his character down since I know he already feels bad about doing it. Usually I wouldn’t say anything & just start fights for nothing or I would say some really mean things to hurt his feelings on purpose. Then this past weekend, I went out & got drunk with my friend & it was a mess ngl. But that night he ended up just breaking up with me & was saying rude things like the reason he always went to someone else was because I did childish stuff like this & that we weren’t together working on stuff this past week. Mind you I have not got drunk like that in over 2 years & this was just one of those nights for me. I don’t go out & drink like this ever! So this was a shock to even me & I have been beating myself up over this one night because after I just found out about him reaching out to this other girl again & willing to work things out with my relationship, it has come back to a really drunk night to end things for us. I don’t get it. Can someone please put into perspective his side of things because I don’t understand how I could fix this & still don’t get why this one night was his reason to end things. I have taken full responsibility & told him that I am aware that my actions weren’t acceptable.
