Having just come back to livejournal (man a lot happens in month) I must say this...
Having spent four years with a man who loved himself (I believe more than me at times) and his own ideas of what love should be (and still does)I would say RUN FOREST, RUN! You have been here before and the saying goes fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. You have to love yourself more than this man and this relationship. Partnerships have to be individuals who compliment each others lives enough to work as one. Changing you isn't the issue. You have a lot to offer and you need to respect that. The problems always happen when people try to change each other or assuming they will change. People are who they are. You fall in love with the good, bad and ugly. People don't change because you ask it's because they have made that choice and it is hard ot convenience them. Stand strong and be the you we all love. Fuck him if he can't accept that!
