I'll try to keep this as short as possible, but first I have to explain.
My BF of two years was the most gentle man I had ever met. I had just left an abusive relationship and he was really understanding.
He held me when I'd cry. He took me on lots of lovely dinner dates. We took loving photos together.
He was the perfect package (like wtf!! finally)
Looking back... I stupidly didn't see the signs.
In the very, very beginning he asked me for my financial information because he was "worried" that I was financially irresponsible.
I guess over time I tried to prove myself to him and it was never enough.
Last week, I shared with him that I signed up for a writing workshop. We were at home and I casually asked him to help with dinner.
He completely blew his lid and started screaming at me. Among hurtful things he said I was pissing money away and that my course could be dangerous.
I left and we've barely spoken.
I need advice. This isn't about writing, I guess? He used to be super supportive and now he's not.
(Lately I've been asking more of him - to help with the dog, help with groceries, help with cooking.)
