Treated boyfriend the same way he treats me

Treated boyfriend the same way he treats me, now he's miserable and angry with me

What I wish I knew
"How he would react to being treated with the same level of distance and independence"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly and honestly with your partner about your needs and boundaries"
