You: exchanges thoughtful messages with someone who treats you well after being emotiobally abused for your past for over a year. Him: Gaslights you and cheats on you through the entire relationship. You: I trust him, I love him.
Girl you're an idiot if you want to stay with someone who will literally never treat you well, and who will fuck other women to hurt you. Marriage is a commitment, and neither of you are committed. You're willingly signing up for a lifetime of being hurt and catching feelings for others because of that. The cycle doesn't stop at marriage, it'll only get worse. He will hold being a good wife over your head and criticize everything you do because he doesn't trust you. And he won't start because he can always use “you're a bad person” as an excuse to have s*x with others now that you've already let him do that. Get a grip and get out while you still can.
By the sounds of it she definitely doesn’t sound ready for a monogamous relationship, but is that what your looking for or not? One of the two reasons this bothers you is not getting to have sex with multiple people before. Are you open to looking into doing those things with her? If so, maybe you two can move forward into swinging or polyamory if that’s actually what you want, but even then this is already sounds incredibly fucking messy.
I definitely agree as well, it smacks of an enormous amount of selfishness/cluelessness for a woman to say “Hey I really wanna have group sex multiple times…. But after that, just you babe.” It is incredibly disrespectful to you, and if I was so head over heels about a guy I wanted to transition to a relationship, I cannot imagine saying that to a partner.
Circumcision aside, I think that you choosing to “fake convert” means both of you don’t take each other’s beliefs seriously. Her asking you to convert is a big deal, you can’t just brush it off. If you want to stay true to yourself you need to tell her. Don’t half ass your own marriage.
If she has no issues with you having a female friend and it’s just about the holiday. Can you see where she’s coming from? I don’t know how comfortable I’d be with my partner going away for a one on one holiday with his best friend. We’ve all read enough Reddit posts. Women can feel quite insecure about this kind of thing.
I understand that but then again he was the one who wanted to be in a relationship from the get go. Before we started anything romantic I pointed out our differences especially about religion but he still wanted to be in a relationship I wasn't ready for a relationship if I am being honest but as months went on I accepted the fact that I was now in a relationship and I started falling in love with him the more we spent time together. And now I feel like I have put in too much to just let the relationship go because I didn't even want it to begin with.
You're not going crazy. You need to tell your family and friends. Go to the police immediately. You'll be amazed at who's there to support you. Also make an appointment with planned Parenthood ASAP to get an ultrasound and discuss options. The sooner you do this, the more say you'll have over what happens next.
I did leave her tf alone. I dnt talk or reach out to her. Actually I'm doing better than her financially and yes I will regret it but apparently you didn't read what I posted
It always feels horrible, especially when you look at all the time spent and sacrifices made, only to realise he hasn't done the same. When your “other half” feels more like your 2% because you're doing all the heavy lifting.
To not even respect you is awful, saying it's “his bed” when you both share it, and basically do what Willy Wonka said to the video child. No, stop, come back.
Nah, but it’s ok! He’s a MAN, so he must have LOVED it! In fact, maybe he physically intimidated her into dating him! He’s actually the aggressor here! It’s basically rape!!!! /s
…As you can tell, this topic bothers me to no end. My cousin’s son was raped by HIS mid 40s teacher for 5 years. He was 13 when it started. When she was exposed, the poor kid was harassed and bullied for it, not only by his former friends, but by our goddamn state police. They all turned their back on him, and some of the students at his school blamed him and accused him of being the aggressor…at fucking 13?!
He hung himself after a few months of non-stop harassment. Society failed him, nude.
Then definitely don't budge. It's time for her to take the compromise. If she can't maintain what she wants that's her problem. Probably best to discontinue living together.
alcoholism and any other addictions commonly lead to trust issue. Lie and manipulation are typical of alcoolic behaviour.
you may think that what she have done is awful. believe me, you still did not see anything. you don't understand the word “selfdestruction” if you never see it in real.
she probably hate herself. how could you love her, if she doesn't ? whatever may bring your dislike, contempt, despise is a burning nude concern. there will be a time where that pressure will be too much for her. she will victimize because she won't see no way out but down.
Alcoholic anonymous is your best chance for both of you. they know because they have been there. there is support group for the family too.
as any problem, the first step of the resolution is to admit you have a problem that will not solve alone. you will find that it implies that you can love someone for what s-he is while disliking what s-he does.
WOW – what a complicated and bizarre way to handle a situation. It’s weird that your boss asked to stay at your place. It’s weird that you didn’t mention it to your GF at the same time (because it’s weird). It’s super weird that, after knowing that your were being “put-out” by her being there, your boss still stayed at your place and cost you $400! It’s all just weird as f*ck. Your GF has every right to be upset that you kept this from her, to wonder what the hell you were thinking and to feel that your boss overstepped a boundary. Honestly, her being alone in your apartment at night feels almost more weirdly intimate than if you had slept on the sofa to me. Up to you whether you tell her or not but, for crying out loud…don’t do something like this again.
Tell him your body and health is your choice. He can mention a legitimate concern only if he really believes you need to see your Dr. Your weight and eating habits do not count as legitimate concerns as you are an adult and know how food works. It is 100% up to you to decide how to deal with your body.
If he can't handle that, I personally wouldn't stay with someone who can't accept that I am in charge of my own health and body.
Again very odd, very judgemental and I question the happiness of a person who wishes people learn lessons on morals they dont agree with by being hurt. But you do you bro.
When your daughter-in-law is ready, I'm sure you will. For now, continue to be helpful and supportive where you can, and don't act like you're owed anything.
OP TALK TO A LAWYER. Don’t take any one’s advice on here that isn’t TALK TO A LAWYER. Don’t wait for him to file. Talk to a lawyer. Don’t draw out the divorce. Talk to a lawyer. There is going to be a TON of debt after his cancer treatments, and you deserve to come out on top after he cheated. I’m so sorry this is happening to you, OP. I hope you find peace soon.
Your father does not deserve your time and he knows that. That is why he is constantly calling you and trying to force a relationship that he broke. You don't owe anyone anything just because you were born. You didn't ask to be here, and it isn't your fault that he behaves the way he behaves. Block out the toxic people in your life. You dont need to answer their calls, texts, anything.
Ypur mother should take him to court regardless. He cannot withhold child support as punishment. Its actually illegal for him to do that.
I have not spoken to my father in 12 years now. I had an 8 year marriage and he never met my ex. He doesn't know that I got married to my current husband in February or that his only grandchild will be born this year. He is not welcome in my life and he has no right to know anything about me or who I choose to keep in my life. Since cutting him and the other toxic waste out of my life…it's been peace.
You owe yourself peace. Guard your peace and protect your boundaries.
S T O P come on
What a wonderful couple, should get married

I'm being sarcastic, sorry idk how to use tone tags so i used the emoji.
omg, plz tell me this is a troll post lmao
Nanny cam is the answer

I used to snore BADLY. Loudly and LOTS of it. I had a loose upper palate. My uvula would bash and crash around like a party for one.
I had surgery to trim my floppy palate so i don't snore any more. A cheaper option is to buy a second hand CPAP machine and use that.

You say you have no one but then you say that you are talking to your sister.
Who lived with you in the two bedroom apartment you had when you were working full time & living a great life?
Your stories don't really match up.
I woulnd't say horrible, but just not fitted for me. His style will probably be welcome by someone else.

Who cares when it was done? This is a deal breaker for me. Would you really want her raising your children?!
I know you are. I'm just giving scenarios that could happen.
Yes, 8 years is a long time, but you are young and will find someone who is ready for a forever commitment.
I’d stick to your guns and keep that decision permanent.

Not even a child should be taught to rampage and boss their parents around as they please.
That's gonna be a straight up “NO” from me, dawg.
