Q
Dear Auntie P, I’ve been dating a guy for just over three years. We come from different lifestyles.
I used to love him, but the thing is I am always the one that goes to him, pay on dates, and if there is an anniversary he goes through my purse for money to buy me a gift, but then I find out he buys weed with my money.
When I tell him I want to end things, he sommer wants to commit suicide and he threatens me.
I’m dik of it but don’t know how to get out of this relationship!
I’m physically and emotionally done. Please help.
From Annie.
