I (37)F been with my BF (40) going on six years coming May. there's a lot going on to know if I should fight for this relationship or cut my losses and all I invested. You see my boyfriend gave me a ring years ago and to be each other's fiancée's. Thats, were it stops. there's no wedding no nothing. He is still legally married and been separated from his wife. I bring it up he gets annoyed and starts an argument and his different versions of excuses are justified. that's just one issue. The other is I helped him have assets thinking it was "ours" I helped him pay off the house got a plot of land next door, vehicles, RVs.,etc. All in his name. When I brought it up, he said because if he was to put it in my name too that he needed to pay off some of my debt and then change the story due to my attitude is why he did it when in a heated argument. I even helped financially with house remodeling. Another is his kids he has two teenagers one boy and other girl recently cops had to call his daughter because of her temper tantrum yelling and telling anyone who will listen she is being abused. that's not all of it. And all the CPS calls from before. and his son has charges pressed on him and suspended on a threat. So now me and BF are not talking because I told him I needed to take ten steps back from being a stepparent. because of that I'm getting the silent treatment. He says this is my home he will fight for me in this relationship. he will only say it if he's in a good mood and all he will do. but when it comes to it, I am the problem I am at fault I talk stupid, and he talks logical (his words). Yes, he had cheated me before and can't keep the same story either. and he accuses me of cheating which I never did even if I try to defend myself (which I do in every argument) it doesn't matter what he thinks is the truth and I'm wrong, I can keep going. not all the time it is like this it can peaceful, and we can get along but its like its only on his terms and that I'm the one that has to summit and have to admit fault what it looks like. I have no family to confide in and I don't know what to do, AITAO for contemplating on leaving?
