I understand that you feel obligated, but you have to do what's best for you. If you don't want to be with him anymore you need to tell him.

Yes, someone can be codependent on you because they want to help, but you have to realize that is not helping either of you get better and you are strong now. you realize the difference. You owe him nothing, I agree because you're supposed to says above you are responsible for only you not your parents, not other friends, YOU are responsible for your own salvation and yourself daily life so think on these things. You can do it. 💪🌺

It's funny how saviors become controllers when you don't need to be saved anymore. When the role of savior isn't required, they don't know who they are, so they try to keep you sick so you still need them, or they get sick to convince you to save them.

It's as though there is no middle ground, no possibility of just health, just love, but only one sick and one savior...

I had to embrace being single before I could get off that merry-go-round, which meant that I had to find better ways of saving myself than relying on one other person exclusively. I wouldn't reject love if it happened again, but at the first hint of codependence, I admit I flee. It's an addiction like any other that leads right back to the problem the relationship was an attempt to resolve.

No you don't owe him anything. He did that out of the kindness of his heart. He doesn't expect you to stay with him for that. I'm sure he will be upset but I doubt he will bring that up. If you don't want to be with him then by all means break up with him you don't want to make yourself more unhappy.

You owe him nothing
