I was wondering the same thing If he still cums when masturbating It may be death grip. Not jus the meds Tho he said in the post he doesn’t masturbate Then I saw in the comments that he does ?
Comparing two vastly different things is not logical or valid. If you can't even see that bearing a pregnancy and providing for your own offspring are two separate topics then no amount of people explaining things to you is going to help.
People occasionally slip up, we’re human after all. If he didn’t unnecessarily continue the convo after she said she was uncomfortable then how big of a deal is it????
Thank you. I find what you wrote very interesting. Especially since you’ve been where I am. This isn’t the first time I deal with something like this however. My ex had much more mental issues than her, much more trauma and she left me like this so I guess this is why I’m scared. I’ll give her more time because I really feel the chemistry. Either way, I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong and I that gives me comfort. I’ll think about your comment more. Thank you.
Your post was removed for the following reason(s):
Your title did not include at least two ages/genders or was not formatted correctly
Posts must:
include details about the involved parties including ages, genders, and length of relationship, and
request advice in real situations involving two or more people
We are enforcing the two rules listed above by making all titles start with ages/genders in the following format:
[##X][##X], [## X][## X], or [##-X][##-X] where ## is the age and X is the gender (currently M, F, T, A, NB, FTM, MTF but more can be added). You can have more than two ages/genders listed, but you must have at least two at the beginning of your title. Here is an example:
Don't do it, she bombarded you with what she was hoping would be her family taking her side and pressuring you. You've lived a hot life and it's helped you analyze situations for what they are. You can clearly see what she's trying to do (move in and have you support her). She's not even trying to hide the fact that she has no financial resources of her own to be independent. Unless you want her to hassle you until she gets her way, I'd pull away and reassess this relationship. She's telling you what she wants now, is not going to change in 3-5 years. It'll only get more intense as she gets older.
Block her. The confrontation you are envisioning where she understands how she hurt you will not go the way you think it will. She’s getting what she wants because she can contact you at any time and fuck up your day. The only way to win this stupid game is to block her number. You’re too grown to be entertaining her.
Because it would be nice to have SOMEONE also stand up for us when it happens.
There was a dota2 thread recently about this same thing. And how a lot of people like you just go “just block and ignore”. Well it sucks. Not being able to use a core feature of a game because the high chance of a toxic asshole coming at you for your gender. And having your team not rocking the boat because it’s just how it is. It sucks constantly having to spend the energy to hear the toxicity over and over. And people like you going “well just accept it”. Because saying just ignore and accept it (which is exactly what you are saying when you say just block) is tiring. It’s just like the attitude of “well he likes you because he is being awful to you” that I heard growing up.
Nope! That’s not love, and he’s not gods gift to women. Call his bluff- telll him to go for those other women, you’re done cause you know you’re worth more than being his fallback.
Separate. Keep your assets for her – especially make it so he cannot get any of your estate. Including life insurance. Do this to protect your daughter. Appoint a trustee who can make sure they keep your precious things for her. If you have any trustworthy friends or family close by – you can appoint them in charge of a trust. Speak to a lawyer ASAP.
From your post it sounds like you're unsure, and your fears revolve around worries about your potential children's futures and wanting to give them a good life. To me, that reads more “scared to have kids” than “doesn't want kids”.
I love my children dearly, would to save them with no regrets. The best part of my day is usually seeing the smile on their face and hearing their laugh when we play or hug.
However, people often seem to de-emphasize the mental, emotional, and physical costs of having a baby.
It sounds like financially you are ready, so I'll ignore the absurd shell game costs for having a baby ($40k bill, actually pay $2k was our experience) and talk about the other aspects.
Having a kid deeply cuts into your free time, your sleep quality, your time with friends, ability to travel, and puts huge strain on your marriage. I was terrified both times that my wife was going to die in childbirth, my wife had heartburn for 20+ weeks, and pregnancy/postpartum/breastfeeding hormones are wildly unpredictable and almost never in a fun way.
Dealing with a 2 year old's temper tantrums as you save their life repeatedly on top of work stress (I'm the sole breadwinner) sometimes takes every last shred of my patience and sanity and I'm very much tired after 2 years of cleaning up poop and getting spit up on. I'm lucky enough to work from home, my wife is lucky enough to be a SAHM, and both of our days tend to start at 7:30am and neither of us gets a break until 8:45pm-9pm when both kids are finally asleep and we've taken care of the last bit of chores for the day. I'm so grateful my parents will take the kids for 3-4 hours on Sundays because otherwise my time with my wife would be in 20 minute doses when she's already exhausted and touched out (Assuming she's not desperate to sleep because our youngest woke up every 30 minutes the night before). We got pregnant the first time shortly before covid hit the US, so I'm sure you can imagine how fun that was.
For me, even with all that and still being in the thick of it, still 100% worth it despite being the hardest thing I've ever done. Even when I'm tired, grumpy, burnt-out, and stressed I see their smiling faces and it makes it bearable.
If your worry is more if you can give them a good life, that's probably “want kids but scared” territory. If you're worried more about the negative impact on your own life, that's “I don't want kids” territory.
This. Especially if they were together for 4 years. She probably had, at the time, the expectation that they would get married and they didn't. It's possible he strung her along or gave her an excuse like he didn't believe in marriage or something, or she's just feeling not good enough because he finally found someone “worthy” of marriage and she's taking it as a reflection of herself, rationally or not. None of those necessarily means she still has a torch for the dude.
Sort of, it's largely helpful to inform this person who has dated a cop “Hey, you probably shouldn't do that again. You can be killed.”
Hopefully OP takes that to heart, because it's far, far more useful advice than “you should/shouldn't tell your ex's family that he's a piece of shit”. The outcome of that doesn't save her life.
Okay based on the title I was going to tell you that it was normal but based on the actual content of the post I would recommend you take his phone ; delete the stuff yourself so he doesn’t have any images of you then break up with him for not respecting your wishes
Step-mom here also! OP needs some firm boundaries with the ex-.
His GF is feeling disrespected by the invasion of privacy, left out of the family structure, bothered by the not-about-the-children convos. As she should be. All of those things violate boundaries. She’s not handling it great but this could be a new experience for her with lots of emotions.
OP: definitely schedule time with a therapist who specializes in blended families as suggested above. You’re not handling this great either, but no one is born knowing how to handle everything. That’s why a neutral 3rd part could help
If she's saying sex isn't an important factor in relationships she could be asexual and not realize it, or she could have some unhealthy ideals about sex(Is she sex repulsed or indifferent?).
Either way you two would be incompatible. You're not wrong for wanting sex. You just gotta find someone who is on the same level as you.
I’ve been in a relationship like this and I can honestly tell you that there is no winning. No matter what you do or how you try to change, she will ALWAYS find ways to manipulate, gaslight and emotionally abuse you.
You’re 19 so I’m going to tell you straight that what she is angry at you about is a massive red flag. You may not have said the words “good luck”, but you helped her by studying before her exam. People get busy, full stop. You not answering your phone because you were in class and her being mad about that is insane. How come you couldn’t just text her and say good luck?
I promise you that she has some things that she needs to sort out independently of your relationship and you owe it to yourself to be with a person who doesn’t make you feel guilty for doing nothing wrong. I understand that you care about her, but you are enabling a toxic relationship and her unhealthy behaviour by staying with her and not calling her out for it.
Totally, but tons of people on Reddit think you should wear black for the appropriate mourning period of 6 months before you can have sex with someone else post-breakup and not be a toxic asshole for it. My only theory is that it’s a lot of teenagers who haven’t been through real breakups yet
I don't think you did anything wrong. You were clear and honest. In my opinion the issue is him, he's trying to push you to do more than you're comfortable/can do. Reading his messages raises a big red flag in my opinion. He's already showing signs of wanting more attention, trying to make you feel guilty etc. I recommend blocking him completely. He is NOT going to get better or listen to your wants. He barely knows you and already isn't listening. I understand he's lonely but forcing a relationship (even if it's just friendship) on you isn't ok!.
This is great advice! Unfortunately, she is getting updates from other members of the party and I had asked them not to do that. The only thing I had brought up was that all expenses were covered except for the plane ticket and that is where she is upset
You are 22. I get that its five years, but for the love of everything, dont stay in a shit situation with someone who has zero care for your boundaries and needs because of sunk cosy fallacy.
At 22 you're not really aware of how young you actually are. It doesnt always feel like it because of the focus on becoming an adult, making all these big life desitions, getting all these responsibilities. But you are so young. There is so much more to life and love. You deserve to not waste time on someone who cares so little for your boundaries, leave and take some time to fall in love with who you are when you're just yourself, not breaking your back trying to bend over to someone elses whims and wishes.
Its hot to go out on your own after a long relationship that was with you through so many formative years. So many habits and memories are intertwined with this other person. Do it anyway.
(2/3) So Christmas Eve came and I was expecting a message saying are you still coming early or something like that but nothing came so around 2 hours before we agreed I would go in which was like 3 hours before my actual shift started I messaged her asking if I was still okay to come in 3 hours early to watch the film and get some food. Which she replied to acting like she didn’t know what I was talking about and like we only agreed I would come in like half an hour or an hour early. I played it cool and said okay I’ll just do that then, when I got in I asked about our plans not happening and she basically said she doesn’t remember making them and then said she must have made them while drunk (she wasn’t drunk at the party, the plans were made a week before the party and she was talking about them with me before she started drinking at the party) again I played it cool and was like fair enough but I was really hurt because it’s a shitty thing to happen to you on Christmas Eve especially since I had other thing going on meaning I couldn’t even spend Christmas with most of my family and this was the only real plan I had for Christmas as I wouldn’t really be celebrating it this year. But like I say I played it cool however there was this horrible awkward vibe for the time I was with her and I was kinda glad when she eventually left. After this I saw her 2 or 3 more times before she had 2 weeks away from work and those 2 or 3 times it was weird she wasn’t like the way she was during training (the person I really liked) but she wasn’t as blunt or rude as she was just after just a kinda middle ground with me. Also just to mention all of these shifts where we would talk and chill longer than our shifts would last it was just turn up and one of us would say do you wanna stay for an extra 10 minutes or so to chill and that was what we would do. But when she came back after the 2 weeks away, on her first shift with me she messaged me without me messaging her (the first time this happened since meeting her) asking me to come in an hour early to “keep her company” I could be reading into that wrong but it’s a weird thing to write to some guy when your in a relationship imo and so I did and this has been happening every time we are in together for the last like 4 months. I won’t go into detail for everything that happened during that time but as a kind of overview, we got closer and she messaged me on everyone of her shifts that I was also in but only those shifts if she wasn’t in with me on that day she wouldn’t message me (to this day we haven’t really spoken on a day I wasn’t working before or after her) and we have played games on the work computer together, she told me she likes us working together because she ‘enjoys spending time with me’ which again I could be reading wrong but is weird to say to a guy when your in a relationship and she even started joking about me liking her. All this time we spent together she never really spoke about her BF I still wouldn’t learn his name for a while after this and there was never a story about them, something they did together the past weekend or anything like that (I would sometimes get little facts about him like if we was speaking about something for example we was on about hero’s and she just said oh my boyfriend likes Spider-Man and those little facts was all I would get about him that entire time) but she never really spoke about him but I did know personal secrets of like her best friend that she probably shouldn’t have told me and other stuff the only thing she never really spoke about openly was her BF. And during this time I truly fell for her, I have never felt this before, I couldn’t sleep or stop thinking about her and the last few times she leaves after her shift I get a horrible pain in my chest and my life has become waiting till the next time I’m on shift with her, I don’t believe you can love someone your not actually in a relationship with but this is close enough to what I imagine it is to love someone and it’s the worst thing I have ever experienced. All this has been building up and eating away at me until on one of these shifts I was with her she said she was doing something I really wanted to do with her that we was even talking about but with her BF but she said his name for the first time since meeting her (I’ll call him Scott, not his real name) and without thinking I asked who Scott was even though I had already put it together and when she said my boyfriend I just shut down and couldn’t function. I would say I am fairly confident and social person and it takes a lot to break me or make me speechless but the second she said who he was that’s exactly what happened, I broke and I just went quiet and distant. After a while she asked if I was okay and what happened and without thinking I said she should just go. I just wanted to be alone and I was instead with the one person I just didn’t want to be with in that moment and I told her she can go home if she wanted and I tried to play it off as me being kind saying she doesn’t have to stay any longer but it was obvious something was wrong and she got silent and started getting her things. I was still out of it mentally and still couldn’t think straight but I knew I had to say something and confess my feelings so I did and I told her I liked her, but before I had a chance to explain why, how long or how much she just said I have a boyfriend and walked out. I messaged her trying to explain but did a horrible job of doing so but she replied basically saying she has been with Scott for 3 years is in love with him and is happy and that we just get along that’s it which hurt me because I thought for sure we was at least genuine friends not that we just get along.
It’s gaslighting if it’s a deliberate attempt to obfuscate the truth and create confusion and second-guessing. It’s not gaslighting if he genuinely doesn’t remember, or blocked it out, or something.
From what you describe, it sounds like the truth has been obfuscated, and confusion/second-guessing have been created. So I lean toward gaslighting.
I was wondering the same thing If he still cums when masturbating It may be death grip. Not jus the meds Tho he said in the post he doesn’t masturbate Then I saw in the comments that he does ?
You know in your head this makes no sense. 3 years??!? Bruhhh
Comparing two vastly different things is not logical or valid. If you can't even see that bearing a pregnancy and providing for your own offspring are two separate topics then no amount of people explaining things to you is going to help.
as a married woman, I dont think you dud anything that bad.
I think your girlfriend is a scumbag tbh
People occasionally slip up, we’re human after all. If he didn’t unnecessarily continue the convo after she said she was uncomfortable then how big of a deal is it????
No, your FATHER is choosing to not have your family in his house because he wants to act out a power play and make your husband beg.
^ This. Nail, meet head.
Just be honest about it.
As a purchaser of illicit substances dating apps have never been a factor in obtaining them.
Is she the only woman in town?
No marry, fuck.. fuck her mother.
Thank you. I find what you wrote very interesting. Especially since you’ve been where I am. This isn’t the first time I deal with something like this however. My ex had much more mental issues than her, much more trauma and she left me like this so I guess this is why I’m scared. I’ll give her more time because I really feel the chemistry. Either way, I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong and I that gives me comfort. I’ll think about your comment more. Thank you.

As an update- this one was actually slow fading me over the Christmas holiday
Don't do it, she bombarded you with what she was hoping would be her family taking her side and pressuring you. You've lived a hot life and it's helped you analyze situations for what they are. You can clearly see what she's trying to do (move in and have you support her). She's not even trying to hide the fact that she has no financial resources of her own to be independent. Unless you want her to hassle you until she gets her way, I'd pull away and reassess this relationship. She's telling you what she wants now, is not going to change in 3-5 years. It'll only get more intense as she gets older.
Block her. The confrontation you are envisioning where she understands how she hurt you will not go the way you think it will. She’s getting what she wants because she can contact you at any time and fuck up your day. The only way to win this stupid game is to block her number. You’re too grown to be entertaining her.
I actually graduated have high school when I was 17. We got married 7 months after I graduated, 4 months after I turned 18.
man if my girlfriend gave me money instead of birthday presents on my birthday she wouldn't be my girlfriend much longer.
money is not a gift. and it never will be.
Because it would be nice to have SOMEONE also stand up for us when it happens.
There was a dota2 thread recently about this same thing. And how a lot of people like you just go “just block and ignore”. Well it sucks. Not being able to use a core feature of a game because the high chance of a toxic asshole coming at you for your gender. And having your team not rocking the boat because it’s just how it is. It sucks constantly having to spend the energy to hear the toxicity over and over. And people like you going “well just accept it”. Because saying just ignore and accept it (which is exactly what you are saying when you say just block) is tiring. It’s just like the attitude of “well he likes you because he is being awful to you” that I heard growing up.
Do better.
Nope! That’s not love, and he’s not gods gift to women. Call his bluff- telll him to go for those other women, you’re done cause you know you’re worth more than being his fallback.
Separate. Keep your assets for her – especially make it so he cannot get any of your estate. Including life insurance. Do this to protect your daughter. Appoint a trustee who can make sure they keep your precious things for her. If you have any trustworthy friends or family close by – you can appoint them in charge of a trust. Speak to a lawyer ASAP.
The preferred vehicle, for this, is a semi. The drivers are pretty chill (usually), and down to screw with stalkers.
Find a divorce attorney and have her served. Time to get this divorce rolling.
Give him the engagement ring back.
Tell him to get fucked for everything else. 1. That’s not how gifts work. 2. Fuck him

Lol facts this girl is literally terrorizing your stbw
You have to be able to be honest here. “What's going on?” is a valid question. Things I come up with:
-he has a kink
-he has a urinary tract infection or

Get slammed lol

All this time we spent together she never really spoke about her BF I still wouldn’t learn his name for a while after this and there was never a story about them, something they did together the past weekend or anything like that (I would sometimes get little facts about him like if we was speaking about something for example we was on about hero’s and she just said oh my boyfriend likes Spider-Man and those little facts was all I would get about him that entire time) but she never really spoke about him but I did know personal secrets of like her best friend that she probably shouldn’t have told me and other stuff the only thing she never really spoke about openly was her BF. And during this time I truly fell for her, I have never felt this before, I couldn’t sleep or stop thinking about her and the last few times she leaves after her shift I get a horrible pain in my chest and my life has become waiting till the next time I’m on shift with her, I don’t believe you can love someone your not actually in a relationship with but this is close enough to what I imagine it is to love someone and it’s the worst thing I have ever experienced. All this has been building up and eating away at me until on one of these shifts I was with her she said she was doing something I really wanted to do with her that we was even talking about but with her BF but she said his name for the first time since meeting her (I’ll call him Scott, not his real name) and without thinking I asked who Scott was even though I had already put it together and when she said my boyfriend I just shut down and couldn’t function. I would say I am fairly confident and social person and it takes a lot to break me or make me speechless but the second she said who he was that’s exactly what happened, I broke and I just went quiet and distant. After a while she asked if I was okay and what happened and without thinking I said she should just go. I just wanted to be alone and I was instead with the one person I just didn’t want to be with in that moment and I told her she can go home if she wanted and I tried to play it off as me being kind saying she doesn’t have to stay any longer but it was obvious something was wrong and she got silent and started getting her things. I was still out of it mentally and still couldn’t think straight but I knew I had to say something and confess my feelings so I did and I told her I liked her, but before I had a chance to explain why, how long or how much she just said I have a boyfriend and walked out. I messaged her trying to explain but did a horrible job of doing so but she replied basically saying she has been with Scott for 3 years is in love with him and is happy and that we just get along that’s it which hurt me because I thought for sure we was at least genuine friends not that we just get along.
It’s gaslighting if it’s a deliberate attempt to obfuscate the truth and create confusion and second-guessing. It’s not gaslighting if he genuinely doesn’t remember, or blocked it out, or something.
From what you describe, it sounds like the truth has been obfuscated, and confusion/second-guessing have been created. So I lean toward gaslighting.
All the terrible behaviour from him towards you is probably making you think that if only I love him more, it'll be better. I can change him etc..
Just break it off and focus on yourself. Don't worry about who's next, worry about what's now.
I was going to say RUN as well!
That was my question.
Those two could be jobless together. I wouldn't support that mess
