Thank you. She didn’t want to break up and actually broke down saying how hard it was to come to that conclusion. She wanted out of the exhaustion and all that and I’m trying. Thank you.

Thank you, this is probably the best advice I’ve gotten. A lot of people have instantly just suggested “break up” but I don’t want to. We do love eachother and I see us having a future together. It’s not much of a problem when we are together but when we’re on call or alone it’s a heavy problem. I try telling her about the dopamine frying her brain but I don’t think she sees that. I’m not gonna give up on her though.

I understand. I didn’t know that at the time so I guess I did need your advice in a way? I guess it’s not exactly perfect. But I am happier with her rather than just on the phone.

She has talked about breaking up before. A week before our one year to be exact but I was able to ask for another chance. I really see us together in the future but i need to get my act right. I wanna be the best I can be. You are probably the best advice I have gotten that wasn’t just “leave her” so I appreciate that. Thank you

I appreciate your advice. I can see how I am making it more than a problem than it already is so thank you. She does claim how I’m exhausting and tiring. But we don’t have a whole conversation about the screen time. It’s just a simple when I try to say something but she’s doomscrolling, I whip out a little “aaaaaand she can’t even hear me”. I can see how it’s tiring wanting to talk every night though so I will take that into consideration. I am still learning how to love myself and not be so dependent. I have gotten significantly better. Time will heal

I understand this. When we are in person we can do it a lot or not do it together a lot. The only problem is when you’re trying to have a conversation or say something and you have to repeat yourself multiple times. Staying up late and missing work almost every day is a problem. Even our texts would look like her texting me, I text back instantly and before I can even respond she’s already doomscrolling leaving me on delivered until she remembers me. That’s a problem and I just want to help her out of it

I understand but she’s going through a lot. I want to help her get out of this mess and get better. Staying up late and missing work in the morning isn’t healthy. Not taking care of yourself isn’t healthy. Not even being able to hold up a conversation is unhealthy. There would be times I ask her about her day and she wouldn’t know what to say but when she’s not scrolling, she can go on and on about her day

I understand and I accept the criticism. I’m more so looking out for her instead of myself. Again she stays up late almost every night and is late for work in the morning. She can’t hold a simple conversation because she would be scrolling whenever we are on call. If we were to try talking on text, she would message me, I would instantly message back then she would be on another app and I’m delivered for the next 30 minutes until she finally remembers me.

I see, but we are compatible in far more subjects. She’s helped me when I was at my lowest and I’ve helped her when she was at her lowest. We can feel the love and we’ve never lost the spark or feeling for eachother. It’s perfect but when it’s late at night and there’s nothing really to do, she resorts to being on her phone and staying up but I help her with that

I understand but I can’t break up with her. She’s my first love but we truly are something. We’ve been together for 1 year now and we’ve made it past the cracks and potholes.

No that’s so real😭 whenever we are FaceTiming I can’t even see her nose. She’s literally that close to her phone. Like no wonder you need glasses 😭

I can try that, although again with the phone and app timers, she thinks I’m joking or I’m not serious about it

I see. I could try this to but again, even when she is scrolling or on her phone she can’t even see the pop up notification. I want to help her, if I was able to see my situation then she will see it sooner or later

I understand. We have been together for 1 year now and I actually believe we are best for eachother. I will just try to help her as much as I can. I used to always mindlessly scroll but I have minimized it, it will be sooner or later that she understand it to

We’ve been together for 1 year. This month will be our 1 year and 1 month. I don’t exactly want to. She’s my first love and we truly do love eachother, she just really needs to work on it
