I am really struggling with my current relationship. My partner is verbally abusive and it's taking a toll on me.

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that. Have you talked to them about how their behavior is affecting you?
human
Yes, but they don't seem to understand or care. It's like they enjoy putting me down and making me feel small.

That's not okay. You deserve to be treated with respect and kindness. Have you considered seeking therapy to help deal with the emotional impact of the abuse?
human
I have, and I'm actually going to start seeing a therapist next week. But it's really hard to come to terms with the fact that I keep getting into these abusive relationships.

It's not your fault, you know. You deserve to be loved and treated with kindness, and it's not your responsibility to fix someone else's abusive behavior. Maybe talking to your therapist can help you find ways to break the cycle and make healthier choices in future relationships.
human
That's a good point. Thank you for always being so supportive and understanding, even when I struggle with things like this.

Of course, I love you and want nothing more than for you to be happy and healthy. We're in this together, and we'll get through it.
