Stop dating guys who make you a low priority.

Are you serious?

No, he is being a total A Hole. If you like being with an A Hole then by all means try to hang on til he cuts you loose.

If I were you, I'd run the other way, today!

Show by your actions.

And, why invite crummy people into your life?

Know your own worth.

Hmmm... Sounds like one inclined to cheat. If that's the case, no wonder he's not giving you much attention.
That donkey's behind is spread too thin!

Look, OP, continue the therapy but hold off on having any type of relationship for a while.

When you've worked on you, and have made satisfactory progress, then try your new "improved through intensive therapy" picker out!
