It's not a relationship when someone expects you to keep giving and be happy with it. You keep on sacrificing for them even when it makes you feel lonely, misunderstood, rejected and worthless - that's not love. If being in love constantly feels like walking on eggshells, it's already over. You're not in love; you're just being taken advantage of by someone who knows you'll stay. Understand this before it's too late — before you completely lose yourself trying to please them. Yes, they won't be very happy when you figure things out, but that's not your problem anymore. Making them happy was never your duty; protecting your peace is. Showing respect and appreciation is the bare minimum — not something to beg for. And if you have to beg, it's not love - it's emotional slavery disguised as affection.
