Am I right to end this?

Polarbearflavour · 10/01/2017 19:44

My now ex partner said we had to go on a break but once my parents apologised profusely (long story, cultural issue, my parents made an error that disrespected his culture and this made his parents advise him to end it with me) I could come back! Hmmmm! I have to move out by the end of the week. It's his flat.

I do still love him, he can be very sweet and cute but...

  1. Constant criticism - wrong hand-wash, wrong loo roll, why don't I cook more etc
  2. Nothing I do is ever enough
  3. Sulks if he doesn't get sex and masturbates furiously when I am trying to sleep.
  4. Gets drunk a lot and gets angry and loud
  5. Controlling behaviour - looks at my texts and cries if I moan about him to friends. If I try and calmly explain my issues I have with him he gets angry/defensive/cries
  6. Trying to catch me out "what did you say, what did they say etc" in relation to what I say to people about him
  7. I haven't met his family - due to cultural reasons. We are not engaged so I cannot meet them. It's been almost 4 years. He spent Christmas apart from me.

I need to leave and not come back right? Sad

Fizzingwhizbees · 10/01/2017 19:48

Run.

Streuth · 10/01/2017 19:49

bert3400 · 10/01/2017 19:50

Run away Polar bear.....be free .

LesisMiserable · 10/01/2017 19:50

Sorry but you had me at furious masturbating Grin

I rarely say this as I usually see both sides, but the guy is a berk. Get rid.

sooperdooper · 10/01/2017 19:50

Ugh he sounds awful, don't look back!

Ilovetorrentialrain · 10/01/2017 19:51

Yes leave. Perfect opportunity to save yourself and never look back!

Freedom2017 · 10/01/2017 19:52

Number 3 makes me so glad I am single.

everythingis · 10/01/2017 19:55

3 is fecking horrendous. So are the rest. There are other men out there. Millions of them!!

TheNaze73 · 10/01/2017 19:56

There's a lot of these threads, where I think hmmmmm. However, on this occasion, he certainly sounds like an utter prick.

Masterbating furiously.... An enduring image Wink

Ilovetorrentialrain · 10/01/2017 20:01

People commenting on number three are cracking me up. 'An enduring image'. 😀

Polarbearflavour · 10/01/2017 20:03

I think of myself as strong minded and stubborn...but not when it comes to this! Things have been okay up until the past 6 months when the above has got worse. We've had so many nice times but recently I have been feeling really sad. He has a very good job and keeps telling me how he treats me like a princess and takes me on holiday and out for posh meals...

Run away without looking back

piglover · 10/01/2017 20:05

What a wanker, in more ways than one. Get rid now.

AnyFucker · 10/01/2017 20:07

What is "furious" masturbating Confused

mumonashoestring · 10/01/2017 20:13

Ech. You can get 'sweet and cute' from a pet without any of the other angsty, aggressive, mentally tortuous bollocks. They do not need to come as a package. Walk away.

TheNaze73 · 10/01/2017 20:16

Was thinking that myself AnyFucker

Is the fury in you not letting him have sex or the speed of him cracking one off?

Sorry to make light of it OP but, I can't get masterbating furiously, out of my head

AnyFucker · 10/01/2017 20:19

Steady on, Naze Grin

I bet he does everything "furiously". He can stick his fury where the sun don't shine. What a complete tool.

Ohyesiam · 10/01/2017 20:27

You deserve to be loved and respected, find a men who can do this, and take responsibility for his actions/ feelings.
Do glad you don't have kids with h I'm. Don't become one of those crazy mn marriages where 10 years down the line, the woman starts admitting to herself that she has always had doubts, but has always actively ignored them.
If it's not straightforward, and happiness producing the majority of the time, then it's not going to work long term.

BitOutOfPractice · 10/01/2017 20:29

I think "furiously" in this case means "with considerable vigour"

Op you are right. You need to end it.

Cricrichan · 10/01/2017 20:30

Lucky that you've seen this before kids etc. Get out now.

OliviaStabler · 10/01/2017 20:33

Run. Very fast!

user1484083219 · 10/01/2017 21:51

you know the answer already, due to your list......

even if you randomly picked a guy in the street, he would almost certainly be better than this one.............

Ellisandra · 10/01/2017 21:58

He made you homeless because of something your parents did.

Wow.

Even without the list of pretty crappy stuff, that's good enough reason to never look back.
