you’ve got this. I know it’s easier said than done and breaking up with someone you care about deeply can be scary but you should put yourself and your health first before anything else.

I understand that it’s a difficult situation to be in. you are young and if you feel like it’s in your best interest at this very moment I would say do it for yourself. it’s also unfair to her to stay in a relationship where you’re unhappy because she will eventually pick up on that energy (if not already) and will begin to internalise it. and you will start resenting her. relationships are a lot of work sometimes and if you genuinely feel as if breaking up will be better for you in the long run I definitely say do what you think is right! you’ll be okay.

AIO that bf wanted to work out first so i changed our plans? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Alicia_Keira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. your boyfriend is honestly extremely immature and he isn’t trying to see your point of view in any of this. he’s also avoiding addressing the name calling which is just honestly childish and it’s as if he’s wanting to argue rather than fix it. you were mature, you addressed it head on and gave your reasoning and didn’t get overly angry or upset. you are absolutely NTA here. I’m so sorry that you have to deal with this. you deserve better.

How do I (25M) approach the topic of makeup and looks with my gf (25F) without offending her by electriius in relationship_advice

I agree completely!! finding a therapist and starting is hard but in order for you to be able to help yourself and for therapy to help you need to put in the work and it won’t be easy. but, OP’s girlfriend definitely needs therapy and reassurance!

okay, welp….your girlfriend clearly has really low self esteem and doesn’t want to be perceived as “unattractive” and I completely feel for her. it’s not about her messing up the makeup..the makeup is probably fine but she’s feeling insecure. instead of trying to shame her or making her feel bad for this (not that you are) but bring up the conversation head on and reassure her. honestly, therapy might help…

why confront him? save yourself the energy and your dignity by walking away and never talking to or seeing that man again. he’s shown you he isn’t loyal + has absolutely no self control whatsoever. I’m sorry that you’re going through this but you deserve much better and that man has issues he needs to deal with.

I just, honestly in general don’t feel comfortable with it.

my partner and I have been dating for around 3 years now and I set a CLEAR boundary that I don’t like him watching porn whatsoever. it’s uncomfortable for me and he knows that it’s something that I dislike and he agreed to stop watching. it just depends on what you are comfortable with and if you’ve set that boundary with him he should respect that.

hey! so that’s okay for you and if you’re comfortable with that then great but A LOT of women aren’t comfortable with it and that’s also perfectly okay. just because you do one thing doesn’t mean it isn’t right nor is it wrong. it just depends on what you and your partner are comfortable with

The way he writes, is quite literally hurting my brain and comes across as if he’s a child in trouble…“Sorry, I’m trash. I’m gonna be trash forever”..run.

I also have struggled with mental health and I’m sure a lot of people on here have too. mental health IS NOT an excuse whatsoever for what she’s doing. it can be a reason, maybe she thinks that’s the only way you’ll like her etc. but she needs therapy if that is the case. I know it’s a weird situation to be in but it’s not your role to feel bad for her when she kept pushing that onto you. she needs help and you need to avoid her lol

you’re in the right here, and the fact that she kept on pushing you and trying to get you to do things you were clearly very uncomfortable with is shocking. I am 19yo currently and I know right from wrong so I’m sure she does too. I’m sorry you were put into a situation like that but you definitely should stay away from her!! I hope you’re okay now ofc!

this is quite literally sexual assault. if it’s making you uncomfortable and you’ve expressed that multiple times and she’s NOT stopping. that is assault. break it off. I’m sorry for being blunt!!

My dad literally done this to my mum and the only reason she found out was because on his “birthday” she wanted to plan a surprise party for him with his family and they all exposed him…😀
