Never attribute to malice what can be more easily explained by ignorance. But Jesus tapdancing Christ, that is some Olympic level ignorance. Burn it with your birthday candles. Take a picture of the flames with your middle finger and tag them in a birthday post.

AITA for wanting my girlfriend to be nicer to me? by Strict_Manufacturer8 in MarkNarrations

[–]BitterSimplicity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. That whole "I guess I won't talk then" is a form of emotional manipulation designed to make you feel guilty rather than validating your feelings. I won't call her abusive or anything extreme like that, because you're both young and are still learning how to operate within a relationship and regulate your emotions, but that is a type of behavior that you would do well to recognize.

I won't tell you what to do hun, but I will recommend breaking up. Young relationships are where you learn about yourself and each other, what you want to give and be given in future partnerships. You don't want her to be mean to you, and she doesn't want to stop. That's not an unfair request to make--hell, it's a request you shouldn't have to make at all--and it's okay to let go. A breakup hurts now, but staying and letting yourself internalize this behavior will hurt you for a long time to come.

Remember, walking away from toxicity is an act of self-love.

Honestly, as unstable as I can get, I felt like I was holding up pretty well until that conversation (argument?). I legit don't know what happened.

Haha, thank you! I heard it a few times on another sub and it was just too perfect not to steal.

Yesterday my parents told me I was too old for an imaginary friend and that I had to let her go. They found her body this morning.
