i don't think it's good to make big decisions in such troubled times as we have been facing rocd, i also went through a time where i thought my rocd was gone or that i never had it, but actually i was just so mentally exhausted i couldn't feel absolutely nothing and everything seemed very real to me, but it was the little moments, and they still are, that keep me fighting for my relationship, the little moments where I can feel that true love for my boyfriend, and it's worth remembering that if you didn't really love him you wouldn't be fighting so much with yourself to be with him, if you're in a healthy relationship worth fighting for, then i think it's better to wait for things to calm down to be sure of something or take a big decision

Please I know I love him but it came out when I was happy. But most of the time I’m stuck believing I really don’t love him… how real did it get for you!? Do I just not wanna face the fact that my relationship with him is over!? 😞 I don’t wanna give in but it difficult. I still have things I wanna get him for his upcoming birthday I already have ideas in mind.. why would I get anything for him it I didn’t love him!? I don’t know what to do…

@7710 ❤️ When I was going through this it felt extremely real most of the time, and I kept making gifts and surprises for our anniversary, and I thought exactly the same way, why would I want to make him something as a gift if I didn't really love him? Sometimes it still seems very real to me, but I remember that even though it seemed like a real thing, there were still moments when I felt true love even if it was for a short time, and these are the moments that give me hope, I know it feels very real and it's a hard, i still have problems dealing with it but that's basically how i deal, deep down you know you love him even if at the moment it looks like you don't, and that's what matters in the end, this and all your effort to make the relationship work

I have to call a therapist I have too… right now.. I truly believe I don’t love him anymore… I cried in my car when I dropped him off at work… he was talking about due to his own mental state he feels like he is holding me back and thinking I’ll have an easier life without him bc he doesn’t drive…

My brain keeps comparing how I felt then with the same thoughts to now and how it is diff now to prove it had changed. I’m feeling like I know it isn’t right and that maybe I’d pair better and I want to be with someone who is good for me but I also don’t want to break up and can’t tell if that’s the ocd using his faults against me. I feel like if I were to tell someone I have no feelings at all for him anymore I’d know I’d be lying and doesn’t feel right but when I say the opposite it doesn’t feel right either. I’m also worried that this time it is real and it’s the guilt of not telling him that’s making the ocd worse not that it’s just ROCD. My thoughts are also saying so many diff things I’m confused. It feels like I can’t connect to him anymore or like I don’t have empathy which scares me cause I know I did before and I felt it but is it just that I’m frustrated w some of the issues? But it’s upsetting it feels like I don’t have the endearing feelings and love I felt and I want it to come back but then I also think I don’t cause then it will prevent be from seeing what else is out there And the thing is looking back on how it was I feel like I could def see how that was ocd but this is different… and like I at least felt I knew I loved him or wanted to be with him and i had thoughts of wanting to be with someone who this or someone who this but I didn’t actually want it and now it feels like this time I rly do mean it like I want to find better qualities but I still don’t wanna move on from him and my brain is like wel that’s how everyone feels when they breakup regardless…it rly doesn’t feel like ocd anymore 😭 and my thoughts keep saying if you don’t you don’t like this or that and it most likely won’t change cause you have been with him so long why are you with him and then I feel guilty like I need to tell him

for a few days now I’ve been super anxious about my relationship. I’ve been anxious about it before but lately it’s been worse than normal. I’m in a very healthy and loving relationship, I love my boyfriend so much and he treats me so so well. The only thing is that I’ve been having scary thoughts that what if I’m lying to him and don’t actually love him? What if I don’t find him attractive? And like what if the only way to stop being anxious is to break up with him? I don’t want to leave him and I am so scared. I feel like I’m lying to him by not telling him what’s going on because he might think I’m actually going to leave him, which I’m really not going to. I have had anxiety since before we started dating and incestual and sexual ocd, then I got into a point where I started having religious ocd, and now I have ROCD on top of that I think. I’ve never been diagnosed but I’m going to therapy and figuring things out but I’m so scared. Idk what to do and I feel like if I talk to anyone they’re going to say I have to leave him.
