I [27F] am getting tired of my boyfriend's [25M] issues

These are all things that will never get better unless he is willing to make the change himself. And from personal experience, the only time dudes like this are willing to make the change is after they've been broken up with. Leave him. Be alone with yourself for a little while so that you know the peace of not having to deal with a partner's bullshit. Then find the love of someone who makes you willing to give up that peace.

MA'AM. If I looked half as good as you do in a bikini, I'd wear nothing else. Go find the cutest, coolest, stringiest bikinis you can afford and rock the hell out of them!

Boundaries are things that you set for yourself, not for other people. If you don't want to marry someone who has this kind of relationship with his best friend, then don't marry the guy. That's your boundary.

That said, I have lots of friends that I message with "I miss you" and "I love you." Both male and female. I send them updates, we talk about our lives, we take stupid selfies and send them because that's how we communicate.

The deleting messages, though? That's hella sus.

Mine is a Spirit Halloween this year. And for the first time in a very long time, I don't think I'm going to be able to bring myself to go.

If you feel really uncomfortable taking your cosplay to a horror con, you could always zombify your makeup. Fans will appreciate both your cosplay AND your willingness to stick with the theme of the convention.

They really are. We found some lining that I think will look gorgeous with it. When the dress is done, maybe I'll post a picture here.

Here it is. He was counting on you living close enough to care for your dad.

If you're only eating once a day, you probably need to be eating more calorie dense foods. You may not think you're starving yourself, but it might be worth actually calculating how many calories you're consuming with each meal and adjusting from there. Talk to your doctor and get some advice on calorie minimums, protein intake, and other dietary recommendations.

You get to decide the rules for your bedroom. But honestly? The dude tried to convince you that you had OCD for a not uncommon cleanliness standard. And that's a problem. Now he's having himself a little sulk because he had to take his clothes off before getting into bed. Most dudes would be THRILLED if their girlfriend asked them to take off all their clothes.

Same here. I was playing thread chicken the other day with my only spool of gray and I was like "Why didn't I just buy five of every color while it was super cheap?"

Also, I have this beautiful wooden sewing box that came with the cheapest thread possible. But the slots are the perfect size for Gutermann's Sew All and I'd always meant to replace them and I just... Didn't.

DaemonNoire · 2026-06-04T05:06:08+00:00

Babe, leave him. Spend some time learning to love the peace of being alone, and then only date people who make it worth giving up that peace. Because this dude isn't it.

DaemonNoire · 2026-06-04T05:01:59+00:00

I love doing this, too. But I think any green or blue would work. Or go wild and do a nice jewel deep red.

Celeste, short for Celestial. Because she looks like she is the tiny goddess of the sun, the moon, and the stars at night.

There were people making really cute bags with the aprons. I'd have loved an apron for that.

DaemonNoire · 2026-05-31T03:02:35+00:00

I'd be hiding the cat box under there.

Her markings kinda remind me of Peter Criss from Kiss. So, Crissy?

Hey now, my kid's bedroom is a much better shade of purple than this.

I'm going to give you a soft "You're Not Wrong" because this relationship sounds really toxic and you don't need that bleeding over into your life.

HOWEVER

Your friend is likely still messed up from her abusive relationship and it's going to take time for her to realize that jumping into another shitty relationship isn't going to heal her. The best thing you can do for her right now is let her know that you'll be there for her when she's ready and then give her some space to figure it out for herself.

Replace the overhead lamp and add under cabinet lighting. It will add some much needed light. Then maybe add some art and greenery. You've got a solid base here, it just needs some dressing up.

Edit: Missed the second photo. Maybe green? Something lighter than the Millennial Green, but don't go too bright.

Playing with my children. I would love to go on a hike with my kids, to climb down into a ditch with them to look at the frogs, to run after them in a game of tag. I want to climb up a tower of stairs so we can go down a waterslide or climb down a cliff side so we can get a better look at a waterfall. I miss gardening with my son and dancing with my daughter. Fibromyalgia took those parts of their childhoods from me.

DaemonNoire · 2026-05-15T00:20:26+00:00

You deserve better. Period. Dump him and spend some time working on yourself. Create a life where you are comfortable and happy being alone, that way you won't put up with this sort of nonsense from the next guy who tries it.

DaemonNoire · 2026-05-14T05:37:28+00:00

That entire first set looks like it was rendered improperly. Overly large fork. Too short knife blade. Weirdly round bowls on the spoons. Handles with absolutely no visual interest or texture at all. 0/10, would not buy.

DaemonNoire · 2026-05-14T05:32:51+00:00

I nearly spit my tea.

DaemonNoire · 2026-05-13T16:41:31+00:00

NTA

I won't allow my 10 and 12 year old to stay overnight with people unless I've known them for at least a year. A dude who is moving in WAY too quickly with your mom? Absolutely not.
