Why do we continue to allow others to mistreat and disrespect us? Especially in relationships? We allow them to step on us and treat us any kind of way. When we push back or speak on it, we’re seen as the bad person. Sometimes they go as far as to say we don’t love them because we don’t like the treatment we receive. If you’re in a relationship with someone who treats you this way and you tolerate it, they will continue to treat you that way. Although it may be hard, you will have to move on from them.
I can speak from experience. I was “trapped” in a relationship with a narcissistic clown. He would do and say awful things to me but always made it my fault. He made me feel like he loved me and no one else could love me like him. However, no one could hurt me like him either. He could be so sweet and loving yet so vicious and ugly too. I don’t know why I stayed so long with him. I guess I felt I was being disloyal to him by leaving. He would say that I should love him like he was yet he tried to change me. After a while, I got tired of his antics and had to move on.
At some point, you have to recognize your worth and move on from foolishness. If a man doesn’t love and value you the way you are, then he doesn’t deserve you. You deserve to be treated like a queen and nothing less should be accepted. Sometimes you have to move on.
