I have lived my entire life being rejected and ignored, being verbally abused and completely disregarded. No matter what relationship it was: family, friends, s/o. I'm in a relationship now where in the beginning even before it was official my now boyfriend made me feel not only seen but heard. When we started dating it was nice but now that we are going on 3 years it seems like everything has disappeared. I can't bring up that bothering me without it turning into an argument and he then belittles me like everyone else. He always wants to say that he always want me to feel heard but his actions say otherwise. I don't want to walk away yet but I've grown attach to his son and our kids love each other but I'm tired of being called out of my name because he did something to upset me and instead of being a child or passive about I try to talk about it. Does anyone have any advice for me?
