Confused in a toxic relationship

I’ve been in a relationship with my girlfriend for over three years, and we end up fighting almost every other day. We both love each other deeply, but my difficult past—something she’s aware of—still seems to affect our relationship. At times, I feel like her expectations of what a boyfriend or future husband should be are beyond what I can realistically meet. I’ve been giving my all to make things work, but I’ve reached a point where it feels like love alone isn’t enough, and the relationship itself is starting to feel overwhelming. One of the hardest parts is how she reacts when I say no—her responses can be quite intense, and it often makes me agree to things just to avoid conflict. Yet, during calmer moments, she’s caring and clearly wants a future with me. That contrast leaves me feeling confused. I don’t feel consistently respected, and over time, it has affected my self-respect and confidence.
