He treats me like shit.

Why do I keep going back to him?
Miram31-35, F
A few possibilities:

Fear of loneliness.

Emotional dependency.

Abuse in your past reinforcing your beliefs that you are unworthy of respect.

Low self esteem.

Fear of failure and facing the fact that love ends.
Subconsciously abuse is love?
@SW-User no. But some people who grew up seeing abuse and confusing it with love crave it as adults because that鈥檚 what they鈥檙e used to.

Because for some reason you think you don't deserve better. But you do. Say it, Repeat it. Believe it. It's true.
Repeating patterns are safe even if they are painful.

Because it's familiar.

attached too him, maybe been with him for so long its hard to let go, never personally been through it so i cannot give advice for you on how to leave.. but those are the reasons.

Put yourself first and get out if you can. You deserve better. :) I know how tough relationships can be, but you still have to look out for yourself too my friend :)

perhaps it extends past marriage; I've heard it said that women marry men hoping they'll change. men marry women hoping that they won't.

With age and experience comes wisdom. Well, to a certain degree anyway. You'll learn what not to do as you get older.

Maybe because you secretly hope that things will get better...Its okay to walk away and heal from a toxic relationship.

Maybe because you find more security and less fear in what you know, than what you're afraid is waiting for you in the unknown.

You relate neglect and abuse to love? If so, how did you get here?

Bottom line: ...Don't go down that road.

Please

Could you be afraid of being single?

Could you be afraid you will be looked at oddly?

Are you afraid of change?
You don't think you are worthy of a life without pain but even I know that's not true.
