When we’re in the middle of a relationship like this, even when we know we are being treated terribly, often we can’t just end it and run. I had someone take me to Israel, then mostly leave me in the hotel with no way to change money or go anywhere while he went gallivanting all over the place without me. One night when he got back and took a shower he left his computer on and told me I should use it. When I did I saw it was opened to his email and there were countless emails to and from women on different dating sites. The entire trip back, from when we left the hotel to arriving back in the U.S. he refused to say a word to me. We lived in different cities so we had different connecting flights home from New York. When we got to New York we split up to go to the restrooms. He told me to wait for him when I got out. When I didn’t see him I figured that I was out first. I waited for half an hour then waited some more wondering if he was ill. I texted him with no response then again. After an hour it was getting close to my flight and I texted him again then called. No response. After another 15 minutes and another phone call he finally picked up, only to tell me he was already on his flight. He’d left without so much as a goodbye. I knew I had to end it but the next day he managed to talk me back into the relationship and we continued this way for another couple of years. I think that women especially have the tendency to think we can always fix relationships.
