Is it not normal to have a day maybe once every month and a half where you and S.O spend the whole day together? Shopping, dinner, movie, sex. Boyfriend thinks it’s a waste of time.

He will ignore me, and tell me to just leave them. But I know I’m his best friend as well, he confides in me about mostly everything. I know he loves me. I don’t think I’m co-dependant. I have looked it up thoroughly. I more so have a sick combination of fearing regret of leaving and fomo. I don’t want to miss out on if this is just a phase for him. I don’t want to miss seeing his successes and his life goals he achieved. I don’t want to miss being his when he comes to his senses and gets out of this mood. And I dread and have dreams about regretting leaving him. Like if I leave it’s permanent and I love him so much. It feels like I’m giving up on my pal, my man, my best friend. And I know he has a conscience with how he treats me, he knows what he’s doing. I think if I were to flex a little and give him a taste of his own medicine he would change. I don’t play games and never have. He said that attracted him to me in the first place. But now it might be required...
