finally got there, but struggling

Your mother doesn't want you to be with him for a reason.

She's been 22 and knows how emotional and idealistic that age can be for many young women who don't know their own worth.

She knows how it's like to fall hook, line and sinker for some loser and start thinking he's the best thing since sliced bread and omg, how he's the best you can ever hope to do and what if I don't find another one, while she's sitting there going, I wouldn't date the lowlife even if my vibrator was on fire.

Sweetheart, you know that leaving him would be the best thing to do. Your mom knows too. Otherwise you wouldn't have taken the time to write your post. I really think that you will be much happier, healthier, and productive without him in your life. That fact that he makes you feel bad and "like it's not fair" means that he's low-value-- he's not adding much value to your life. You deserve so much more from a man. You should never feel like you always have to prove yourself when you're in a healthy relationship with a high-value guy. Please take care of yourself ❤

You're torn because you know deep down that this dude is a waste of carbon.

He makes you feel bad, why subject yourself to this? He's feeling good at YOUR expense. He wants you back so you can be his emotional punching bag. Get angry at that, then launch him into the sun. Nothing is worse than being supply for some asshole's ego. Choose yourself.

You don't want to be with him, but fear of the unknown is tough. You've already got your mom's support, which is really positive. Cut the cord, block and delete across all platforms.

Then start looking forward to the cool stuff you're going to do with all the time and energy saved. Invest in your hobbies, education, mental health, and your future.

You're the greatness, not some 29 year old dating a 22 year old. You've got this!!!

Look in my eyes... 👀

You know better. Go read through our manual for a while - this feeling will pass. Then schedule yourself a mani-pedi with your best friend or Mom and have a therapeutic session. Vent it all out...

Dump his ass and dont look back. You will thank us for it later. Listen to your mom.

24 leaving a relationship with a 32 year old man. Been with him for a while. Save 2 years of your life and get away from this guy. Invest time in yourself, you are worth that. He only wants you around to feel better about himself, he's projecting his unhappiness with himself onto you. I bet a few weeks from now you'll feel relieved!
