I do realize I love him, that's why we still live together even though I broke off the enagement and we still live together with all of our other relationship issues pending. I just really feel like I shouldn't have to just "adjust to the things I feel I'm lacking." I stay with him because of the great things, now the things that are lacking need to be worked on, otherwise it will always remain an unhappy relationship, and in the end I will feel a big waste of time! We fight about the same things over and over and go through the same patterns of him trying harder/cleaning up, but it always resorts back to the way it was originally and I feel he is just letting me down on his end. There is no real change happening but I am unsure of how to coax him into maturing and changing. How to get him to take responsibility in this relationship to work with me instead me always feeling like I'm his mother trying to teach him.
