Look I have a very bad attitude and you deserve someone nice not a vile person like me. This is what my boyfriend just told me. Is he trying to give

I'm that guy - in another relationship.

I've been drawn in by the comments..

I've done some shitty things, some things I didn't realise how it hurt her at the time of me doing it.
But in the end I never changed, we have had months where we could barely go a couple of days without a big fight. Eventually I cracked after another mistake that triggered memories.. I shutdown and I just stopped having feelings, feeling dead inside. I knew going dark, she was trying to reach me but when I let her in - after two days with no cell or internet - I was so cold. I told her nobody cared about me. Despite all of her efforts. And after talking to her to a point, it was her turn to let out hurt but I wasn't ready to be there emotionally - so now at a point where I didn't break up with her but effectively have. I am scared to say that it's over, just knowing how reactions are.. Much to this story but I am the bad one..

Sorry, not really my post or story but this is been plaguing me since monday and this heading and commentary caught me.

When someone says that, you just have to tell them like "I know you're..." then explain every single negative thing about them in exaggerated detail and follow it up with "But that's fine."

Yea that is classic for im already cheating on you so im trying to let you down easy before i get caught type behavior

It's, either

A) He wants out for x reason.

B) He has a bad self image and is very hard on himself and rejects your love as a result of low self worth. He wanna be with you but his brain tell him he don't deserve you.

C) He is looking for you to go "No stop saying that, you're amazing, I love you"

D) He is abusive and this is as gaslight attempt.

Sometimes you just have to believe what they tell you at face value.

I saw a girl crying on the laundry room floor once, asked if she was okay. We talked for a bit, then she told me she was evil and I was too nice and should go away. I did, never regretted that decision.

It sounds like he’s giving you good advise. Avoid stupidity and take him up on his offer. You’ll likely be more successful in life.

Yes. He wants you to be the bad guy. How long have you been with him?

A variation of "it's not you, it's me". Sounds like no matter what, he's done with it & moving on.

they want you to do the dirty work and break up with them so they dont have to feel guilty.

Sounds like it? Maybe point blank ask him if you’re not sure?

He is l ooking a way out, in any case. Agree to it and move on.

Believe him is my advice, from experience.

Absolutely
