Feeling trapped in an unhealthy relationship and unsure how to move forward
I've been in a relationship for about 18 months now, and I'm really struggling. My partner moved in with me last year after losing their job, and I've been supporting them financially and emotionally ever since. At first I didn't mind, but it's been almost a year now with no improvement. They spend most of their time in bed, rarely help around the house, and are often in a bad mood. We don't do anything fun together anymore - no dates, no outings, nothing. I used to have an active social life and enjoy traveling, but now I feel isolated and stuck at home all the time. We adopted a puppy together, which has added more strain. I do most of the pet care, even though I work full-time. My partner is impatient with the dog and we've argued about it. There are also trust issues - they've gone through my phone multiple times out of insecurity. I feel guilty about the idea of leaving because they depend on me financially, and they've bonded with our dog. But I'm so unhappy and don't see a future together. I'm not sure what to do or how to move forward in a healthy way. Any advice on setting boundaries or addressing codependency would be appreciated.
