He keeps walking out on me

i was with a man for a year when we met he fell in love with me so quickly worshipped the ground i walked on he said i was his soul mate showered me with gifts and flattery made me feel amazing and that i had finnally found what i was looking for i was so happy, i had suffered physical abuse in an earlier relationship and also suffer from deppresion which i talked to him about penly he made me feel that he would protect me always and that no harm would ever come to me , we would be together forever as the love he had for me was so strong, then he became jealous of my dog, who i was friends with what i was doing who i was talking to and what about , constantly questioned me on how i had felt about other people etc, he walked out and finished with me so many times each time walking away saying its my fault i need help . then he would call obsessively text email phone my friends and family trying to turn everyone against me, then pleading begging me to take him back , each time i did! for a while it would be nice i would catch him going through my emails past and present looking through my phone questioning accusing, then insulting me how nothing i did was ever rite, then hed be nice then nasty and leave again and because i didnt chase after him he accused me of never loving him. when we argued i would go quiet as it was upsetting the things he had said and done i would answer him when spoken to but felt so scared of his mood any way he left again last week saying i made him so unhappy etc , i know he will start again soon with the calls and the text i know its a bad relationship and will never work as he has no respect for me and takes no responsibilty for his actions, he goes of and has sexual encounters with others so qucikly and then says well we wernt together but i knw he will try to get back within a week or so, any advice will be grately appreciated thankyou!

If you want a happy life, don't take him back. If he was really jealous of the love you show for your dog, then he would be a very insecure person. But it sounds to me as if he uses the temporary break-ups between you as an excuse to have sex with other women. The early part of your relationship was a honeymoon period, and he promised you things he couldn't deliver, sadly it's not an unusual way for relationships to go. My guess is that you were drawn together in part by mutual need, but based on what you have posted, it sounds as if he needs more help than you do, but that he has no insight into that. You may be tempted to think that you owe him something for his reassuring words early on, but you don't, he's taken advantage of you since those romantic early days. My advice is to suffer the pain of breaking up now so that there will be some long-term gain for you when you meet someone more genuine and reliable. Sky
