Confession 1: I have been dating this guy and have felt so empty inside and sad in our relationship and I just now realized it’s because he treats me like shit and doesn’t act like he wants me and lies to me! He is completely different than when we were just going out getting to know each other, but I’ve been holding on to that version of him. Why was this simple revelation so hard for me?!
