Jesus M-Fing Christ. He groomed you as a child, and he only decided to straighten up and try to keep you because he realized he'd never be able to date someone as young as you.
I used to put my family and friends on the back burner. I didn't do it this one time. He said that's the reason he broke up with me.
Sounds like he gave you a fantastic holiday gift.
Separating you from your support system is a classic abuse tactic. He wants you to be dependent on him.
we've been together for such a long time, and I don't want it to be wasted
You're 21! Most kids haven't graduated college at your age.
If there is doubt, there is no doubt.

I have two questions:
Is this how he does/would behave with others or by himself? Or is this particular to you?
He might just be a boring person, and this is how he behaves, even with someone that he actually likes.
How does he behave towards others? How did he behave when you first met? Does he have any interesting hobbies?
If he does actually like you and is interested in you, but he's just really bland and boring, is it worth sticking around?
Imo, you aren't enjoying being with him, and things probably aren't going to get better from here. So it doesn't really matter what his feelings are
No this is pathetic honestly
Have you never said something like that to be polite?
