Ofcourse u should breakup. Never be in any relation where the other person doesn't respect you. You should strongly appose such behaviour for your own self ,for your self esteem and your happiness. If you continue to be the same the person will just use you like a toy and throw you away when not needed

Don't let anyone use you.. You're worth so much more than that. You know your situation better than I do, but if I was in your position, I'd have at least a very long sit down with said partner!

If they are using you and you feel this is wrong, you can do as you choose. It is your life and you make choices for yourself.

If you feel that your partner is using you, maybe you should talk to them about it first. I've often gotten myself in situations where I believed my partner was doing the same thing but turned out I was just being paranoid, but you'll never know for sure until you ask him/her. Instead of acting without reason.

I think the answer is self - evident when it comes to this particular question. If you know for a fact that he/she is in fact using you, have a conversation with your partner and let them know how you feel. Don't hold anything back when having this discussion. If you just feel like you're being used I would suggest that you still have the conversation. Your partner may not even realize that what they're doing makes it seem like they're using you. If they are in fact using you, you might want to look into breaking up with them. If you want to find out if they're using you stop doing and giving them what they want/need and see if they stick around. If they don't then you know you're being used if they do stick around then you probably aren't being used.

If your partner is not respecting you then you may want to think about leaving. Before you do though, talk to them. Express your feelings and concerns and see where that takes you.

Yes you should. You should not use your partner. It's not right. You are both equals in the relationship.

Life is full of ups and downs and we are humans. We all make mistakes in our life and later regret after it. If you know your partner is using you, you should of course go and confront with him/her to clarify and sort things out. If your partner leaves you but comes back to you then he or she was not using you but just needed a break. If she or he does not come back and just walks away without looking back, that's the time when you should do that too.Hold your head up high, act as if nothing happened. Of course you break up.
And you know what? they are not worth you because you are beautiful today and you will look even better tomorrow but those people are stupid and will stay stupid forever.
