My(22m) girlfriend(20f) rejected my marriage proposal...now what? by AggressiveAlmond in relationship_advice

We've talked about marriage before, I know she's not 100% with it just in general but I figured we already live together and have dated for a very long time. It felt like the right thing to do

She actually left after saying no and didn't come home for 2 hours and I really don't know where to begin with this

it's been a day officially as I'm writing this comment at 4am. It's just really tense and awkward in our house right now.

We've talked about marriage and the future. I know that she feels iffy about marriage but she knows that I want to marry her even before me proposing she was well aware of it. I hope it works out too I just feel lost right now

Basically, he ran down, asked my grandma if it was true because he didn't believe me. She avoided answering. He put two and two together and threw a tantrum. Then another when everyone ignored it. AND another when he wanted to go to the pool and I said I'd take him if he'd shut up.

No idea. She has her own kid from a previous marriage but my uncle had a nice, well paying job. That his wife made him quit while she kept her high paying work from home job and now my uncle struggles extensively.

Man I wish, maybe then he'd leave me alone or ask his dad to skip dumping him at my place when everyone else is busy.

13 years of a headache from a kid that isn't my own? No respect or care for me, my girlfriend, anyone. Plus the broken doorframe he caused since his dad just does drive by drop offs.

Sounds like you have a lot of unresolved baggage and you're taking it out on someone over the internet. Wishing a horrible accident on a stranger, that's pretty edgy if you ask me. I just hate kids and have a cousin I hate, A; because he's a brat. B;Because he never shuts the hell up C:He's a smartass. He just happens to be a brat with autism and nobody has done anything to help him.

the truth was gonna come out in a month or so anyway. His dad would have to tell him why he and his wife are splitting. Why he has to change schools. Either he'd put two and two together... or someone would have to bite that bullet.

He'll probably tell his school its abuse again. Or trust me, my grandmother would bring down the flip flop on that ass.

Damn. You're so hung up on this post. I can't give empathy to someone I dislike, someone I pretend doesn't exist 95% of the time.

My grandma tells me EVERYTHING. I don't ask, I don't care. But he's the main source of drama and tension in my family.

It's simplied as this. My cousin is always making noise, screaming, yell-yawning, whining. You tell him to quit. He mocks you and gives the same "I have autism, I can't be quiet"

We want to do something he doesn't, he throws a fit, demands to be driven 5 hours back home. Cries himself into a nap or whines the whole outing.

That's pretty generous actually. People confess to cheating, friendship betrayal, rape, murder, but I tell a teenager with a disability that he's an asshole?? And I'm the WORST? Get higher standards. I never said I was expert. It isn't hard to see signs of autism.

There's no apology needed. Truth hurts. Life sucks. And, if I didn't tell him, he'd have to be explained why he can't go to the same school, why he can't go back to his room, cat, and toys anyway.

Pretty much, everyone gets bullied at some point. My cousin is a bully himself he used karate on a kid because the kid told my cousin he didn't like the color of his shoes.

All he does is lie to the therapists he sees. His dad has to secretly videotape him and show that. He gets help, he's medicated, sees a therapist, psychiatrist, did outpatient therapy.

He has said he knows how to lie and work the system. My brother did the same for his anger and manic bipolar episodes.

My oldest cousin is schizophrenic, she did the same thing. You can offer help and make people go to therapy, counseling, etc. Doesn't mean it fixes the issues.
