Reply To: Lack of Boundaries Between Boyfriend and His Soon-to-Be Ex

I’ve been careful not to dictate or demand change, but have expressed my feelings. I thought it was only fair to let him know what was bothering me before ending it. He said, and I think it makes sense, that he hasn’t had a reason to change anything before now. Honestly, from what he tells me anyway, he prefers to avoid conflict with her and she had decided that this is the way it’s going to be. If he’s content to continue as is, then that’s that and I wish him well. He’ll make changes if/when he’s ready or when the right person comes along.
