This guy is cheating. Over and over. And then lying, flipping things, and pulling you back in when you try to leave. None of that is love, even if he says the word a lot.
Someone who loves you doesn’t keep secret photos with exes, doesn’t message other girls, doesn’t deny you exist, and doesn’t keep doing the same thing after you forgive them. The fake account didn’t create this problem. It just showed you what was already there.
The reason you keep giving in when he calls isn’t because you’re weak. It’s because you’re attached and hopeful, and he knows exactly how to pull on that. That’s why he won’t stop calling. He wants access, not commitment.
Here’s the hard truth: he will not change while he still has you. Every time you go back, he learns he can do whatever he wants and still keep you.
The only way this stops hurting is if you stop answering. Block him if you have to. Ask a friend to help hold you to it. Cry, be sad, miss him all of that is normal. But staying will keep breaking you.
You’re 17. This is not the love story you’re meant to carry into adulthood. One day you’ll look back and be so glad you walked away now, not later.
You deserve peace. Not this constant ache.
