I struggle with ROCD and i’m going through the exact same thing right now, I know what it feels like and it’s awful, seriously no one deserves it. I don’t know what to tell you since I’m also lost but I’m sure that there is a light to the end of the tunnel. Stay strong!!
I’ve definitely seen massive improvements with my rocd and I feel like a lot of it was down to my self esteem. That was the main problem and once I focused on fixing that instead of the relationship, everything else went inti place. My bf is now treating me like a princess and buying me things even when I don’t ask for it, giving me compliments, asking to see me. It all starts with yourself. You really have to stop avoiding how you feel through your relationship and bring the attention back on yourself. Looking back at your message, most of what you wrote is about him and the relationship. If you just take a small step back, sit with your feelings and try and self soothe and make yourself happy first without the relationship, it will do you a massive favour. Pretend you are single rn. What makes you happy? What hobbies do you have? What goals do you want for yourself? What do you value?
