Why can't I break up with my girlfriend?

I was in the same predicament. It sucks but just end it mate, you will thank yourself when you end up wtih someone who appreciates you. If your stuck because your comfortable or you have a routine with her it’s only tough/weird for a little bit. Then hindsight kicks in and you realise just how bad it was and you will kick yourself for not acting sooner. IMO

Good luck

I hope this doesn’t sound judgmental, because that’s not how it is intended at all. I had a marriage like this. What I learned is that I was treating myself worse than he was treating me by volunteering to stay and the relationship and let it happen. When you learn to treat yourself well, others can’t mistreat you. I’d probably focus on the fact that you are worth more than this and force yourself to walk away, knowing there is someone better out there for you. When I did that, it was honestly the best decision of my life.

Just break it off. You might feel a slight sting. That’s pride fucking with you. Fuck pride! Pride only hurts . . . it never helps. You fight through that shit ‘cause a year from now, when you kickin’ it with a girl that treats you right, you gonna say to yourself, “Blondesjon was right.”

Sorry – One more thing. Your question is “Why can’t I…” You can. You are choosing not to. Spend some time trying to figure out why you are choosing to stay, and when you get the answer, you’ll probably have the courage to leave and strike it out on your own for a bit.

Cause you’re scared you won’t find someone else.

I’m in a rather similar situation [only I’m not wanting it to end] and pretty unsure how to act as well.
However recognizing the problem is the first step, and from what I’ve heard the hardest. When did the mistreatments begin? How was the relationship at first? How was it before you noticed/she began treating you like that?

you are co-dependent maybe? try this book it might help clarify some stuff…

yup. Your whipped.
Break it off while you got a set. can.

Why would you let someone treat you like this? Has anyone ever treated you poorly before? DId you get lots of support and love from your parents? Think on this as you leave this situation and retool your own thinking of why you deserve a person who will treat you with respect. But it has to start with you treating yourself with respect. And that begins with you feeling like you are worth respect. And you have to believe that that is true to find someone else who will also treat you with respect and love.

You don’t deserve this type of treatment. There is someone out there that will give you back just as much as you are willing to give away. You deserve more than just being a convenience to someone else.

Be empowered to make a good decision for you. You already know that it is the correct decision. Tell your heart to catch up with your mind and just do it. You will feel so much better. A little time and healing may be necessary but the time to yourself may recharge your confidence level.

Never forget your own worth.

Something in you makes the known seem better than the unknown. It’s not; with the unknown, you at least have the possibility of a better relationship with someone else.

It’s called being co-dependent. She needs someone to abuse.. you need someone to abuse you for fear of not finding something better. Get some help. Go talk to someone. There really is help out there.

Yeah I don’t know what to say. Just cut her out of your life man she sounds like shes a real drag on you. It can be tough but sometimes doing whats right is the hardest thing to do. Good luck.

You obviously deoend on her or need her for something when you clearly should just let her go. You said yourself that there is nothing there that is keeping you there but maybe emotionally you aren’t confident enough to be single. Is it that you have her that you don’t want to be alone because it is okay to be alone; you will find someone else. You should try and get away for a night with your friends and remind yourself what life is like when you are happy, that may sound bad but it might help you make your decision.

i ask this to myself everyday, but i still love her. idk why im around and we’re fighten and i still want her.

because it turns you on.

Man up and get the hell out of there.

Thank you all for your help, suggestions and encouragement. Yeah, it seems in a relationship I sometimes do get a little co-dependent. I’ve been doing a lot of introspection lately and feel I am on the right track.

Thanks again to all.

I think it is because you seem to be very codependent. Are you like this with any of your other relationships? I hope this is not a pattern. I wish you luck and hope you just end it. It will only sting for a little bit but in the end you will find someone that will treat you with respect and love. Life is way too short to just sit around wondering and wishing about what if’s and about how you feel bad about breaking up with someone. Just do it!
