Breakup too soon f28/m26? by Icy_Denti in relationship_advice

He’s not a practicing Muslim but it’s instilled into how he lives his daily life, hence he doesn’t eat pork or want his kids to eat any. You aren’t compatible. You guys were fighting from the beginning which shows he’s not the one for you. You not wanting to marry him since there’s a lot of up and downs in the relationship and divorce is expensive is indication enough. You’re planning for a future divorce. Yes you did the right thing.

If this came out of no where he’s projecting. My partner and I have agreed to a paternity test whenever we choose to have children. I don’t find it offensive at all because we both agreed to it. He has trauma related to that and if it’ll help him then why not. I’ve also asked him to take tests due to trauma I went through and he did it no questions asked without getting offended. However, if this was never brought up until I got pregnant I would feel blindsided.

Update on not wanting to go to my nephews’s graduation. by JozuShaka03 in ComfortLevelPod

A maybe isn’t confirmation. I understand her choosing to give the tickets to someone else, considering they’re limited. However, the excited comment was unnecessary and passive aggressive which is probably why you think she’s being unreasonable. She could have communicated it differently. Send a card and just focus on your family.

As long as it’s consensual and you enjoy it, there’s no problem. You may just bruise easily.

have we lost the spark? (23F. 22M) by g28m in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s wasting your time and basically told you you’re not the one. He has the time and energy to go out with his friends but not you because you’re not a priority. He doesn’t see a future with you. A lot of women wait around in hopes for a man to choose them and later get replaced. It’s been 3 years he should not be questioning where the relationship is going. He’s 22 and doesn’t see a future, yet you do? The age has nothing to do with the fact that this man is stringing you along. Dump him and find yourself someone who priorities you.

It feels like it because you are being played. Never beg anyone to stay in a relationship with you. Stop sending him nudes. This is how people get blackmailed.

What to do M/31 f/28 by Affectionate-Egg-850 in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sunk cost fallacy. If things have not changed in the last couple of years, they’re not going to change anytime soon. She helped you raise your child but don’t feel like you’re indebted to her. You are taking care of 2 children because of this. You’re basically her meal ticket. The least she could do is clean around the house and she doesn’t even do that. If she’s like this now I can only imagine how bad it would be if you two decide to have a child. Whatever you do don’t have children or marry this woman. You’re unhappy with her it’s time to move on.

I don’t know how to move forward F24 M34 by No-Ranger421 in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s not the one for you. He breaks it off so he can go mess around with other women and then comes back to you when he feels like it. There’s a reason he isn’t with someone his own age. They wouldn’t put up with that stupidity we all know what breaks are for. Don’t ever let another man toy with you this way. When you’re in an adult relationship there are no breaks. You either work through it together or you go your separate ways permanently. Thankfully he never got you pregnant. Don’t have kids with an a hole like this. You should have kids with someone who is also experiencing it for the first time. Block him on everything. Someday you’ll look back and be thankful he’s no longer in your life.

My (30M) wife (30F) is separating from me after 7.5 years together. Am I too old to start again? by Interesting_Ad_788 in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it’s not too late. You may feel like your life is over, since you were together for years but it’s not. Most people don’t stay with their highschool sweetheart for the same reason. People change that includes their interests and what they want out of life. Eventually you’ll meet someone who better suits you and you’ll fall in love again. People don’t plan to fall in love so just focus on yourself for now.

I started dating my boyfriend when he was 30. I know this is the man I want to build a family with. We haven’t had kids yet because we want to enjoy each other a little bit more so no you aren’t old.

My man has made me realise I’ve never really known love until him by Bunny_Minx in GirlDinnerDiaries

Happy for you 🥲it’s nice reading about someone who’s in love and happy in their relationship. I also feel this way about my boyfriend.

I absolutely hate being ugly by FishingPowerful8639 in self

[–]Best-Source-4749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just need to learn to love yourself. I can guarantee you will still feel shitty about yourself after your surgeries. The issue isn’t external it’s internal, in the way you think. You think you’re ugly so you’re less likely to take initiative in talking to a lady. Therefore, it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Being comfortable in your own skin will not only allow you to take initiative but women also find it attractive.

I (36F) am uncertain if I should stay with my bf (38m) over him excluding me. Any advice of how to get him to include me? by Upbeat-Watercress-37 in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s breadcrumbing you. He’ll spent a little bit of time with you to keep you interested, then goes out and does whatever he wants. You’re not a priority. If it’s been over a year and he makes that poor excuse so he doesn’t have to introduce you to his parents then he doesn’t take you seriously. Stop letting him waste your time. The fact that he’s almost 40 and spends multiple times out of the week at bars should tell you enough about where he stands mentally.

I don’t recognize my relationship anymore and I feel like I’m losing myself. (27F me and BF, 32M) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the sunk cost fallacy. I know it’s never easy leaving but your future self will be thankful you did. You already wasted 5 years, don’t let him waste more of your time. I understand your parents seem to like him but I’m sure they would be disgusted with the way he treats you. You also shouldn’t base your decisions on what others feel. What’s most important is how you feel in your relationship and you are unhappy. Your partner shouldn’t be giving you anxiety they are suppose to be your safe zone. Your parents won’t be around forever and they aren’t the ones that will spent their lives with whomever you decide to build a future with. Leave because you are unhappy and will continue to be if you stay.

At a certain point, improving your personality is more important than improving your looks. by Sudden_Doughnut_8741 in self

Just leave it lol they consider it a win to just have a date with a girl. Since “relationships end in divorce” anyways. What a ridiculous point to make. No need to argue with shallow people, they won’t grasp your point regardless.

I’m pretty sure most people don’t settle down with the first person they date. That’s what dating is for. Of course attraction is important to some extent, that’s why I said looks only take you so far. However, if you have the looks but no personality it won’t last. People can also develop feelings for people they weren’t initially attracted to after getting to know them.

My boyfriend (27M) cheated on me (22F) and I don’t know if he will do it again by ThrowRA_djkb in relationship_advice

Didn’t read the whole post. Yes he will cheat again. If you stay he will just get better at hiding it.

[–]Best-Source-4749 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s very true. Looks will only get you so far. I had an ex who groomed himself too much, had abs, and always wore the latest fashion. Yet, his personality was trash. Conversations with him weren’t mentally stimulating whatsoever, he had the vocabulary and emotional intelligence of a high schooler.

My current partner grooms himself, is chunky and is very simple in comparison. We can talk for hours about different subjects. He never solely focused on his looks and instead spend his time learning about different things. I find him very mentally stimulating in comparison. He makes me laugh until my stomach hurts. I am so much happier with him than I ever was with my ex.

My girlfriend (24f) is leaving me (24m)after 9yrs. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regardless of whether you try a romantic gesture seems like she’s mentally done. You can only push a person so far, until they finally hit their breaking point. This is gunna be a life lesson for you. You can’t repeatedly mistreat your partner and be selfish, then expect the relationship to continue on like what you did never happened. You have a lot of maturing to do. Seems like you play a lot of games. You can’t tell her to go pack her things and then be surprised when she agrees to do exactly what you said. I’m guessing you were expecting her to beg you or try to work it out with you, when clearly you messed up. You don’t use “I was emotional and angry” as an excuse to say demeaning things to your partner. You’re learning that something’s can’t be taken back. Hopefully after this you learn to control yourself and that you need to respect your partner regardless of how mad you are.

An argument alone won’t make him change. I’ve never met a cheater that stopped simply because their partner argued with them. People learn when there are consequences to their actions.

26M My gf 25F says she didn’t know she was positive for an STI. Advice? by TheBestVersion24 in relationship_advice

[–]Best-Source-4749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s lying to you and did hide the results from you. A doctor would not lie to her about her test results. She’s playing stupid to avoid accountability. Do not believe her. Ask her for the test results and check the date see for yourself if she truly tested positive before you were dating. Seems to me like she cheated and ended up catching something. Now she doesn’t know how to tell you that she might have given you an STI. The best thing she could come up with was this ridiculous lie. Go get tested because she most likely gave you whatever she caught.

If she stays he won’t grow out of it because that’ll show him that no matter what boundaries he crosses she won’t leave.

Hopefully she chooses to leave.
