Please how do I do it? How can I find the strength to walk away from my relationship? He has been so awful to me and I've done nothing but cry but every time he mentions the word I'm done or its over I cry so hard and feel so empty how can I find it where is it he's making me ill !!!!

People just say walk don't text him or whatever but its not as easy as that as I love him so much but I also need to get away from him

Could I leave my town and move away with our daughter without telling him? We only see him 2 times a week because he's too busy with his friends or social life and he says I'm lucky I get that out of him!

right now you are obsessed with him, ( I am assuming that you dont have anything actually wrong, such as depression) and what you need to do is replace him with something else to be obsessed over, and thus move away. at least that is what i would do.
try excercise, its a fairly healthy thing to be obsessed over, unlike drink or drugs.
You could try another man, but I have a feeling that you will only end up making your situation worse.

Moving far away is unlikely to be of any use as you will also be removing yourself from your social support network, assuming you have a good one. If its toxic, then perhaps moving away will be the best thing. Only you can decide what your friends and family are like.

meanwhile, delete his number from your phone. remove him from fb, email, etc etc. Make sure there is no way that you can contact him. And get some counseling, or see the gp.

How old is your daughter, and how old is he? I'm guessing you're 20 from your screen name.

This is not a healthy relationship, and if you need the motivation to walk away from it, then look to your child, because what they in the relationships around them is what they naturally look for in relationships themselves as adults.

He is treating you like crap. How is your relationship with your parents?
