Good morning,

been together with bf 4 years. Im almost certain he is a narcissist. He can’t show any form of empathy, reassurance or will never take blame for anything he does wrong.

if he does something and I get a little bit upset he will say get the violins out or poor you. If I ever mention to him that all I want at these times is just some love in any kind of way he will lose it. Like lastnight. Told me to get out of his flat.

so yesterday and I do apologise for being rude. He phoned me and mentioned he was Randy and would love it if I sucked his d…. Now this is pathetic and sad at the same time. I know if I agree to this then he will be nice too me. He is nice but I lack a huge amount of an emotional connection with him because I honestly think he’s incapable of being loving towards me if it doesn’t involve sex. So saying I would do that I hope he will give me what I need from him .

hours went by. I got home from work, showered, sorted my house out and went up to his flat. It took him a good hour then to come to bed because obviously things he needed to do and he showered. As soon as he gets in bed he turns around and starts kissing me. Puts my hand on his d… and it’s hard. Keeps kissing and he said are you going to do what you said? Now and I know it’s my fault for saying i would then not being in the mood too said i don’t want too now and also I feel like I got a cold sore coming .

he said well we ain’t having sex unless you do what you said. And he kept on and on . I said no a good few times then he turns over. He does this all the time. And it could be over anything. He has always got to get his own way and will sulk if he doesn’t.

im laying there feeling sad, bad for not doing it and anxious. After a good ten minutes he looks at me and says sulking because I won’t give you d…. I said no you just upset me . He gets up and goes to get on top of me for sex i said 3 times I wasn’t in the mood. During sex I wasn’t in to it and I could tell he wasn’t either . So it was all pointless.

he didnt speak to me after it just lay there watching tv. And I still feel sad from just before . I get up and put my clothes on and then he says whats the matter . I hate telling him because it always ends in an argument. But I did . And maybe I worded it all wrong , maybe I am in the wrong. But I said I hate it when he keeps on and said he uses sex as a weapon.

i then mentioned that he will by me stuff and hide them and unless I suck his d… he won’t give them too me. This hasn’t happened for months now mind.

he was extremely annoyed. Said here I go with the sob story’s. And said it was my fault I shouldn’t wind him up and say I was going to do it if I wasn’t going too.

he then told me to get out. Which I did and I have not heard off him at all. I want to know have I really made all this up in my head ? Has he got any right too be annoyed at me? I know it’s my fault for saying I would . There’s been numerous incidents where things like this has happened and I think it maybe triggered something in my head . I wasn’t angry but just felt and still do feel sad. Thankyou

I forgot to add that he said if you were that sad why did you have sex with me. I replied i said a few times I didn’t want too. He then accused me of being fake . And that annoyed him even more

Dump him now. He is not good for you.

ShetlandishMum · 16/01/2026 05:50

Run.

Eenameenadeeka · 16/01/2026 05:51

This is abuse, I would break up with him.

mutleyschuckles · 16/01/2026 05:53

Dump him. Don’t look back

Motnight · 16/01/2026 05:54

This is horrendous, Op. You need to leave.

MammaBear1 · 16/01/2026 06:03

He had sex with you when you told him several times you didn’t want to?
He has no consideration for your feelings?
He mocks you when you’re sad or upset?
He withholds gifts from you until you give him oral sex?

Ask yourself what you are getting from this relationship. How is he contributing positively to your life?

Do you still want to be in the same position this time next year?

He's abusing you.

My advice would be to end it immediately. This will not get better. He won’t suddenly start to treat you properly.

CarminaBiryani · 16/01/2026 06:08

He does not respect you and you are so low in his priorities. Leave and spend a good amount of time being single.

It's fine to feel disappointed if someone changes their mind, but the normal thing for him to do would be to accept it. Not pressure, use and discard you. I don't say this often but he is a disturbed man OP, get rid of him.

AgathaX · 16/01/2026 06:21

This is not a healthy relationship. He is using and abusing you. It doesn't sound like he even likes you.

You don't live together. You don't need to see him again. Make today the start of your life without him in it.

Minilover79 · 16/01/2026 06:23

This is a terrible, do not put up with it.

ClarasSisters · 16/01/2026 06:59

YABU to continue a relationship with him.

Aplstrudl · 16/01/2026 07:05

Dump him. Yabvvvvvu to stay with him.

Endofyear · 16/01/2026 07:31

Oh OP why are you in a relationship with someone who treats you like this? 4 years!!! Please don't waste one more day with this arsehole loser! Narcissist or not, he behaves appallingly towards you and you don't have to put up with it - you are far better off being single than with someone who treats you badly. Stop trying to get him to show you love and care - he doesn't love you and only cares about himself. You deserve so much better.

Catza · 16/01/2026 08:55

Doesn't matter what you promised or didn't promise. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. So, effectively, this was rape.
You do whatever you need to do with this information but if that were me, I'd at least block and delete his number right now.

Swiftie1878 · 16/01/2026 09:07

Get out. Now!

tellyouwhatiwant28 · 16/01/2026 10:12

Hes just phoned me having a go saying that I have basically accused him of raping me

Well, he did.
You said you didn’t want to have sex, but he carried on anyway.

Please leave this abusive man.

HarvestMouseandGoldenCups · 16/01/2026 10:31

OP… break up. He raped you. You also do not like him so leave him.

He did rape you. Having sex with someone who says they don’t want to have sex with you… is rape. He’s only angry because he knows he raped you and now he’s scared you’re going to realise it too.

ChurchWindows · 16/01/2026 10:34

What in Christ's name are you doing spending any time at all with this arsehole?

Get out.

Wishimaywishimight · 16/01/2026 10:35

He's vile, surely you can see this?

LaundryScales · 16/01/2026 10:36

This is never ever going to get any better. It will only get much, much worse.

End it today and stay well away from him.

Calendulaaria · 16/01/2026 10:38

I'm glad you don't live together, or have children. Please get away from him now, while you can. Don't ever move in with him. He won't get any better, he won't change ever.
