My boyfriend and I have been in a relationship for six months but whenever we have an argument, he makes comparisons between me and his ex-girlfriend. I don’t react to this, but it sometimes feels as if he wishes things had worked out with him and his ex. I am made to feel like an afterthought, like someone he chose to be with only because he could

There’s nothing wrong with being indecisive or asking for time, provided you take into account that this can have an impact on your mental health.
