Search Results: forgiving an ex

So my relationship with my boyfriend has been having ups and downs. We’ve been together for more than 2 years now and we’ve been having a lot of problems that can’t be fixed. He is a very forgiving guy and an honest one, he’s not thise type of guys that would cheat or do anything bad. Most of the problems has to do with me being upset all the time for stupid reasons and disrespecting him sometimes. (Ex; not liking his family, interrupting him, showing signs of clinging, and Me getting upset all the time when he mentions his 4 year old half-brother who hasent done anything to me. He dosent like the fact that i hate his family because he has no full siblings and both his mom and dad have kids from different people) he has 5 other half siblings with different parents) So he decided (oct 16) that he has had enough of giving me chances and WE NEED A BREAK. I was the one who brought up going on a break instead of him having to break up with me. So he finally decided that were going on a break for real this time. He Decided on a 3 week break and tolled me that this break is my last chance he is giving me to fix my issues. He decided on 3 weeks of no talking and seeing eachother and after the break (nov 7) will be the deciding factor if we will continue our relationship. He is giving me this time to think about the problems and to see if this will prove that i will change and show him that i will learn to accept his family and show more respect to him. I feel like it’s forever but he said that it’s not a long break and it will be beneficial for us if we decide to continue our relation and save our future in the very long run. I’m thinking this will sorta help us, but not communicating during this break is making me very sad. He said he will contact me on the ending date but I don't know what he will decide on. I really miss talking to him rn. What do you think?

This is what my father told her during an argument in 2012. She's obviously never going to forgive him nor forget that. Their marriage is an act at this point and it's all about appearing good in front of the other family members.

According to her, his words were ''well I never loved you, you were never the love of my life. It was always my ex gf''. Basically he only married her to start a family, he was getting older and his ex girlfriend was never going to take him back.

To my mother, that's a lot worse than any abuse and his words beat a slap in the face. To her what he did is soul destroying and she can't get back 25+ years of her life.
