Me and my boyfriend have been together for almost 7 months now. He always shes he loves me, and how much he wants to be with me, but then he goes and hurts me. He always says hes doing one thing (Homework) and then his best friend texts me and says (Connors over with Amy right now!) Amy being someone I'm not on great terms with. She thinks Im no good for Connor.
He does other things too, he always says things that offend me, but I always tell him they offend me, and sometimes he just shrugs whatever it was off and doesn't try to fix it.
What do I do? I dont want to break up with him or anything.. But I guess if I have too.. Then I have too!

Meaning he may tell you he loves you, but if you read what you wrote: "goes and hurts you", "Says he's doing homework when he's not", "says things that offend you and shrugs it off"... These are All signs that he doesn't really love you and you know it. If a guy loves you he will do whatever he can to make you happy and work with you to make things that aren't working, work.
My honest thoughts are telling me that you are infatuated with him and not in love. Everytime he tells you he loves you he makes you feel wanted, but then he does something to hurt you and that's when you feel like breaking up. Its a cycle that may not be fixed if you're both not willing to put in the effort to work with eachother. Also, by saying "if I have to, then I have to' tells me that you just want his comfort, not the relationship or you'd straight up say "I want to make this relationship work". That is not how it seems. I think you should find a guy who will treat you with respect. Point blank, he probably cheated on you with this other girl and you just ignored the fact. You can find a guy that will love you for you and want to be there for you no matter what - not criticizing you. You deserve better girl. Stop putting yourself through this cycle and you will find an honest/respectful guy that will treat you like his world. Trust me. [ gr8fruit's advice column | Ask gr8fruit A Question ]

Let someone treat your right and how a person deserves to be treated [ ArghhJill's advice column | Ask ArghhJill A Question ]
