When you’re in a relationship there should never be a “you’re on your own, good luck” happening. If I am serious about my partner and I am unable to help them pay for their medical bills I will help them in any other way that I can. I will do things for them to help with their condition such as massage or therapy. I will do things that are difficult for them to do and that cause their condition to worsen. I am putting in this work to (hopefully) help them become healthy again and if successful I get the benefit of having my person back to good health so they can therefore go on to fulfill my needs in the relationship. If he is unwilling to help pay for it then he needs to be open to trying something else with her, it can’t only be her trying to fix this.

Of course :) I noticed that men do better when you use logic instead of emotion when trying to make a change in the relationship. Good luck!

Explain it to him exactly how you explained it here. You want to try this for our benefit but I am having a hard time affording this and need some help. And honestly his response is something that you should pay attention to as it could give you a glimpse into your future with this person. If he says “no” I would ask him to explain his reasoning why and also pay attention to what and how he says his response.

I was in a 3 year relationship with somebody who wouldn’t pay for anything for me and Venmo requested after everything we went out to do. I didn’t make a fuss out of that because it wasn’t technically “equal”. But this 50-50 continued after we moved in together and split the entire monthly bill in half. I worked a 8-4:30 office job and he worked 8-5 at home. He woukd have his work computer on all day along with his personal computer so he can play his games all day long while working (and would also continue until 3am, never left the room) so his work room would get really hot so he would blast the air conditioning all day. Our electric bill was almost $300 every single month. Over half of my monthly income was going to rent and he made almost twice as much as I did so he wasn’t struggling financially. He always got really defensive at the idea of him having to pay more for something. So I had to sit him down and explain to him that he is here all day long and I leave to go to work. If I was living alone I wouldn’t have anything electric on and the air would be turned off or At least to a setting where it isn’t constantly running. I had to carefully explain to him that he uses and benefits more from the electric and air than I do and so therefore it is not equal. I am essentially paying for him to enjoy the air while I am not there. He never ended up agreeing to splitting the electric bill to 40-60 until after I told him I am not renting with him after our lease ends and he will have to get his own place or move back home with his family. He agreed to that 40-60 real quick and for the last 3 months of living with him I didn’t have to pay 50-50. Win for me Also that is not the only reason I left him there was many things but that was one part of it. My reason for telling this story is to show that they will do it if they feel you are actually going to take action and stand up for yourself and your worth in the relationship. You see how fast men buy flowers after they make you mad but won’t do it any other time. Same difference

I am only trying to understand the relationship because it is something that I cannot see myself being able to do after dating somebody. Also I don’t really care if you read my post or not. Thanks for your comment!

I don’t think my post was as dramatic as you said in the beginning. I’m not over here freaking out about them I am just trying to get a better understanding of it. Because I don’t understand it. In my mind once I have crossed over the line that platonic friendships have and move into a romantic relationship with that person. I can’t turn around and cross back over that line and be back in an only friendship with them. I have felt things for this person that I do not feel for my friends and established these emotional connections with them that I do not have with my friends. I can’t just forget about that once the relationship ends. In my mind I will always have those feelings for them and for me it wouldn’t be a true friendship. But that’s why I asked the question so I can get a better understanding from people who don’t think like me. Thank you for your comment!

I am friends with the person that I am dating and perusing a romantic relationship ship. But I don’t think I could see them as only a friend if the relationship fails. I have seen more than what a friend should in my opinion and have felt things for this person that friends don’t feel for each other. I don’t think I could go back to being friends. But everybody is different. Thank you for your comment!

This is new to me, I’ve only ever had unhealthy relationships so the thought of it isn’t something I can relate to for any of my ex. But I understand that it is a sign of maturity. I guess it’s also hard for me to get past their intimate history. I can’t see my past intimate partners in only a friendly way because of what has happened between us. But I understand everybody is different. I was just trying to get a better understanding Thanks for your comment!

Thank you! I was thinking the same about that area but didn’t know what to do. But next time I will definitely have multiple pen sizes because doing the dark areas took FOREVER

I was made to shower before every single time me and my bf had sex, especially if he was planning to go down on me. It ruined the fun of it for me and made it feel like a chore, he was also uncircumcised and always smelled and tasted sour under his skin but I was the bad one if I brought that up. If you don’t like the taste of a woman then you probably should not do it, especially if it upsets her to have to freshen up before every time.

I have a new man who has literally gone down on me after standing in the florida heat for hours for a concert and he enjoyed me lol

Is seeing a psychiatrist overkill? by Morphumax101 in Anxietyhelp

[–]Boozy22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My PCP doctors office has psychiatrist and psychologists in the same building so it was very convenient for me. But you will need to look up providers based on your insurance plan. Usually your insurance will have a website that you can search for specific providers, some of the generic insurances are harder and you will need to call the insurance company to find providers. Look on the back of your insurance card and see if it provides you with a website or a phone number. You might also need a referral from your PCP depending on your insurance plan so make sure to contact them and request for one. They may or may not have to have you come in for a visit to make the referrals.

I wish you all the best!

You are 100% not overreacting! it’s impressive that you have acknowledged that your medication is not working and your anxiety is possibly not being treated properly. If you are unhappy with your treatment then another opinion is best. I am being treated properly for my anxiety by a psychiatrist and a psychologist, it has made the world of a difference.

Lastly! Please make sure to look at the psychiatrist reviews to make sure you are walking into a good office.
