tl;dr I have been with my partner for almost 2 years now, we got together very quickly after he ended his 7 year relationship with his ex (red flag already I know). They were each others first loves and my partner said even though they did have some issues, he mainly left because of his own mental health. Fast forward to our relationship, we have broken up 4 or 5 times now because of how much he still loves his ex even though we also love each other deeply. He is the love of my life, I see us one day getting married and having kids, but lastnight he told me that he may never want to do those things with me because he is scared he may always feel like his life was meant to be spent with someone else. He has tried to get her back every time we’ve broken up, however she has had a firm response of no every single time, even telling him to please focus his energy and attention on me because she has moved on.
I really dont know what to do here. I love him more than I know how to put into words but there’s only so many times a girl can hear that their partner may never love them more than their ex and that he believes she is his soul mate and that he never should of left. What do you guys think?

He has chosen her over you at every opportunity. You are constantly his second chose. You deserve to be someone’s first choice. Leave, please.
He breaks up with you to get with her and then when she says no, he comes back to you? Girl, where is your self worth?
Why would you WANT to marry someone who doesn’t even like you? He doesn’t like you enough to be with you? You are his second choice. You should have blocked him and never spoke to him after the first time. The disrespect. He would be a terrible husband & father and you should want better for yourself & your future kids (if you want kids)
