Advice? Opinions? Comments?

I started dating a guy in July of 2015. We broke in January 2019 but haven’t stopped talking and hanging out since. I had to block him yesterday finally because I am done with his shit. Our relationship wasn’t the greatest. He’s 28 and only worked under the table a handful of times while we were together, he doesn’t have a drivers license or wants to get one, no education or the desire to get one either. He constantly made excuses, lied to me about the littlest shit and put me down all the time.. even though he was “just joking”. It held me back a lot in life. But, at the the same time we are so close and we’re together for a while and we had some really good memories too. I got really close with his family but when we broke up I never even said a thing to them, I just never went back over again. It’s been hard accepting hell never change.. I loved him a lot, I know he loves me but.. actions speak a lot louder then words. I know I deserve better in life now. Give me your opinions, comments, advice... please!
