So this post is more about the relationship dynamic then any stepchild involved. Im not involved with his daughter in any way. I keep to myself.

Anyway, we have been in a relationship for almost 6yrs, lived together for 3yrs, along with his friend who is a roommate. We are all in our early 30's. Several nights of the week are dedicated to frat boy nights, where all guys come over play video games, eat junk food, and smoke weed, and drink all night. I never involve myself, i think they are negative influences, and none of these guys have gfs/wives/or are financially independent. It never used to be this way, but the past year my fiance has really tried for these guys approval, and he seems more interested in having their attention and approval and friendship then wanting anything to do with anything else. Literally, im sort of a time bidder is how i feel, until one of them texts him, or he invites one over, and WHAM i dont exist.

Recently, my "fiance" told me that i need to move out, that we are stale, and that none of his friends like me. he also took back the engagement ring sometime after that, without telling me, i noticed it missing from the box recently. I confronted him and he said yep, its mine i bought it.

I have put down a deposit for an apartment, just waiting for my move in date to come around. I cant believe this is actually happening now and how numb i feel about it, but i cant help but think that there's some major immaturity issues happening at the current house, that i am now leaving behind, almost thankful to be leaving behind. I never want to make this same mistake again, choosing a guy like this. Maybe i do need to learn to have more self respect. Not sure how to do that, or how to improve upon that.

I hope my now ex fiance doesnt try to contact me after ive moved out and on with my life. He has told me he still wants to be "friends". And he has asked me where my new apartment is at, to which i will not tell him.
