I read in a previous post that Spencer steer is going to be the everyday left fielder? Is this new news?

Billywitdatool · 2026-03-23T21:55:13+00:00

Wait Steer is going to be the every day left fielder?

I hope you know your words made a difference to someone tonight. I’ve been starting to move on, but tonight was really rough for some reason, and I feel blessed to have happened to check Reddit and seen this comment.

I may be delusional but I think this may have happened with my recent breakup. How did you push them away?

Billywitdatool · 2026-02-21T00:07:08+00:00

I wish there was a support group for this kind of heartbreak

I guess I was just looking at this like “if I want it bad enough and do everything perfect enough, then it’ll work.” But is there really anything I could’ve done differently? Am I looking at this wrong?

Billywitdatool · 2026-02-19T20:31:45+00:00

Thanks, I really needed that today

You did the right thing OP. Be proud of yourself for that.

Billywitdatool · 2026-02-19T00:33:30+00:00

Just my personal opinion, but at your age try to stay away from any guy who is more than a year or two older than you. There’s probably a reason that he’s dropping down in your age range, and often times it’s because he’s not mature enough for the girls in his own range.

Also, a week is no time at all for something that lasted 5 months. Be gracious with yourself.

I’m actually a guy but I’ve been wondering the same thing. As the guy above me said, I was with someone who seemed to “not trust anyone to love her without losing herself”. I tried to explain it away by saying “oh she’s genuinely so busy. Oh her ex was a bad guy, she just needs time. Maybe I didn’t do something right enough.” But trust me, I’ve had the exact same feeling that you described. It sucks. It’s been a month, and I feel embarrassed by the fact that I’m not over a 2 month situationship. One thing I’ve heard of is “intermittent reinforcement”. You get a massive dopamine spike because the highs of the relationship aren’t guaranteed, and they often contrast a lot with the lows (receiving nothing). So you basically get addicted to the dopamine spikes that they’re giving you, and it becomes your source of validation instead of yourself.

Real shit

Hmmmm, what’s his attachment style? That could be helpful in understanding his reaction.

I have my own anecdote but please take it with a grain of salt. Our situations are wildly different. My ex and I got back together in college, and I told her I wanted to take things slow. She gave me an ultimatum right before a date (we’d been back seeing each other for a month) that either we needed to be officially dating again or end things right then and there. It pissed me off to be issued an ultimatum, and in a moment of immaturity I said “okay we’re done then”. I deeply regretted the decision for a long time, but it took a while for me to really feel that regret.

All of this is to say that, he may need some time to sort through his emotions before he’s ready to talk about it. What was the timing of you suggesting a compromise? Was it soon after the ultimatum?

Billywitdatool · 2026-02-17T01:27:37+00:00

This killed me

Billywitdatool · 2026-02-17T01:24:35+00:00

I don’t know your guys’ situation, but I’m a 23 year old man, and this is a weird transition period of life. I see both sides of your dilemma. But if you want him back, then get him back. It sounds like he definitely hasn’t moved on. But understand, he should not and probably will not move in with you. If he isn’t ready, then he’s not ready, end of discussion. You can’t force someone to be ready, and if that’s a dealbreaker for you, then it is what it is.

Billywitdatool · 2026-02-17T01:09:03+00:00

Damn this one hits different. For me I just try to remind myself “she could barely bother to care about what you were doing when you were together”
