My boyfriend is condescending what do I do?

My boyfriend is condescending and it's getting worse. We only ever argue because of him being condescending. I regret the amount of times I let him help me with something I needed or allowed him to hear something vulnerable about me. He has made many remarks that I think are extremely condescending from talking about my job to saying that I'm weird and people wouldn't like me if he didn't intervene and speak up for my good qualities. I really thought he could be the one but Im realizing there are some bad signs. I confronted him but he flipped it on me and I ended up apologizing but when I thought about it I knew I wasn't wrong for feelings this way. I googled what are some condescending behaviors and he fit the bill pretty closely. He isn't horrible, and he reassures me in a lot of ways. Its because he does so much right that I didn't want the things that he does wrong to overshadow who he is. But I think long-term it will only result in me wanting to leave if he continues. And since I brought it to his attention and his didn't fix it I feel like he wouldn't now especially since I admitted to being wrong just to make the peace. I don't want to leave but Im not sure if I should take some space to try to assert myself
