I can’t sleep. I stood up for myself and now I’m on my own again.

It feels good, but also shitty. I couldn’t take the unpredictable anger, but I miss the sweetness. Could I balance that? Shouldn’t he balance it?

If he has anger issues ...run like the wind ...you did the right thing for you and your son ...the sweetness isn't so sweet in the long run ..you would end up in an unhealthy relationship trying to please him in hopes he would be sweet to you ....just my thoughts and also my experiences

@SW-User You are right 😔 I could see where we’d be in the future. I’d feel beat up emotionally and he’d be cheekily in control of my world, stressing my son and I out to the breaking point with unpredictable anger/sweet/anger/sweet and I just feel like that’s every relationship I’ve ever been in. I could feel his ego trying to stuff me in a cage. Even though I see all the good and I miss his kisses, that damn ego seems to be going for the lead. I can’t do it. Especially not to my son. I’m still trying to help him through the abuse from staying at his dad’s. Ffs though I could use something not shitty for once 🖤

@RebelFox exactly! Push /pull relationships are horrible ...they leave you feeling emotionally drained and depleted in every sense ...it's not worth it ..You and your son deserve so much better ...keep loving yourself and your son and the rest will fall into place ❤️

Time, distance and shielding, will protect you against these feelings. (Also nuclear fallout but it works perfectly for broken relationships too.)

Fits of anger is a red flag in my opinion!!
