Boyfriend...

Sometimes my boyfriend is just so stressful to be with.  And at all comes down to the same problem, he's selfish.  He isn't willing to wait for things, he hardly ever makes me feel good about myself anymore, and he only seems to be happy nowadays after I give him something he wants.  I don't know what to do about it.  Actually, that's a lie, I do know.  I'm just dreading it.  Underneath all the hardships of our relationship, he's my best friend and it's going to be difficult to lose him.  Once we break up I don't think it would be possible to be friends, or at least not close ones.
I know, reading this over, it would make sense for us to try to talk things out first.  But I've tried so many times, and he continues to revert back to his old ways.  And, like I've explained in a previous post, it's still hurtful that he doesn't say, "I love you", anymore.  I cannot just force someone into doing that, no matter how much we try to "talk it through".  I don't want to be done with him, because it hurt so much the first time.  But I can't do this for much longer.  For myself, I have to put a halt to all the misuse of my feelings.  My heart deserves a break.
Also, God deserves more of my attention.  I don't think my current boyfriend is my soul mate, so why bother?  Besides the reasons stated above and how much it's going to hurt when we split.  I can't keep compromising my beliefs for this guy when he won't compromise his own for me.  And really, I haven't actually been compromising.  Just arguing and apologizing and making up, then repeat.  I just can't do it anymore.  I have to believe that God has someone better for me.  I have to.
