“I'm unsure if I'm overthinking or if my boyfriend is abusive”

My boyfriend belittles me, makes mean jokes, and compares my crying to his raised voice. He says I'm confrontational and won't find anyone else like him.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew if his behavior is workable or if I deserve better"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly and don't settle for someone who makes you feel belittled or unvalued"
