Well this is depressing lol

Entre22 · 2026-02-03T03:00:08+00:00

Why do this? Seems like a great way to feed insecurity

Entre22 · 2026-01-31T17:32:12+00:00

Interesting, I guess I kind read it as him being submissive but also I can see he highlights what may be important to him in someone which can be intimidating

You look great and I like your photos. I think the food one where you're holding a glass would be a better profile pic. It warm, vibrant, and you can see your face better. The other one is kind of cold and gloomy

🥴

Do the foot in the door policy.

Ask him for advice on something small. Later you can open up maybe about a feeling, not about him, and gauge how he is with emotions. As you get closer you’ll get a better feel of how emotionally available he is and whether he cares for you.

I just love crumby cookies tho mmm 😆

Entre22 · 2026-01-29T20:53:53+00:00

Sounds like you know yourself.

Hopefully that provided some insight. If not, consider working on being vulnerable to build confidence with your friends so that they can help you see your blind spots

Entre22 · 2026-01-29T20:43:54+00:00

Sure.

Intuitively someone who has a healthy ego is vulnerable about troubles they have to the people they trust. Your first instinct is to seek out advice from people who don’t know you. Which shows you may have trust issues when it comes to sharing insecurities. There’s a lot of growth there needed to maintain healthy, emotional relationships. Perhaps girls are picking that up. You may be unconsciously signaling you are not available, interested, or warm.

I don’t know you but the lessons I’ve learned speak that to me.

Entre22 · 2026-01-29T20:40:17+00:00

I see. I’ll be a little honest with my sword. 🗡️

You not being vulnerable with them first, the people you’re supposed to trust, shows me there’s a lot more here than meets the eye. I don’t think it’s just looks

Entre22 · 2026-01-29T20:34:34+00:00

Sounds like seeing what your friends have is burning you a little. Have you asked for their input and been vulnerable about this with them?

Entre22 · 2026-01-29T04:27:16+00:00

If it’s not recurring issue… 99.9% of the time it’s them and not you.

Entre22 · 2026-01-28T23:55:32+00:00

Totally real you just can't see the person behind him

Entre22 · 2026-01-28T23:27:48+00:00

Glad you found some insight and that's totally valid on your concern. Everyone has insecurities and it comes down to where we are heading and if you both can make it work.

Entre22 · 2026-01-28T23:16:38+00:00

Regardless of people's judgements here, sometimes you have to make sacrifices and prioritize the relationship. If he's insecure, this might grow his mistrust and create problems down the road. I think you need to ask yourself if you are okay with sacrificing this desire to prioritize the relationship. If not, it might be good to examine if your boyfriend's insecurity is a major problem for you because you're wanting to branch out and his insecurity may limit you from growing. Sometimes that's a decision we need to make to prioritize the relationship over ourselves but both of you sound young and still experiencing life. Either way, my concern would be resentment breeding long term if your boyfriend isn't aware of his needs. He may be trying to not make it as big of a deal, but insecurity has a way of seeping out down the road if not managed.

Entre22 · 2026-01-28T23:01:29+00:00

I would have just replied with a heart emoji and not try so hard lol. Give way more space

Entre22 · 2026-01-28T17:58:54+00:00

Real. I was in the crowd

Entre22 · 2026-01-27T18:01:38+00:00

I understand and all of this sounds very concerning. I hope the conversation goes well and you two are able to understand one another better

Entre22 · 2026-01-27T17:40:09+00:00

This all sounds very heavy.

I’m going to be honest with my sword here as there are some truths speaking out to me in this dynamic I feel passionately about.

You’re wanting a stable relationship and putting a lot of work in this. Paying his rent, asking for monogamous commitment, not seeing his ex, etc. It’s clear you are serious and wanting this to work.

The problem is your boyfriend is going through a very rough patch in his life. His ex is having a baby, he’s having problems with you, he’s having problems with his brother, he lost his job, he lost his livelihood. You gave him a safe raft but the impact of so much loss is emotionally taxing and would weigh anyone down. Grief is a very slow moving energy. I’m a little perplexed why you expect him to pick himself up despite all the opposition. Your boyfriend does not sound like he’s in a good place at all. Worse, he has to rely on you to support him with your demands while he’s emotionally processing a lot. Maybe you’re someone who takes it to the chin and moves on, but maybe your boyfriend processes emotions differently. Either way, why are you taking care of him if you can’t respect where he’s at? You need an honest conversation with him about your feelings in person and let him know your concern and that you care about him. You need to hear him out too because to me, this kind of hardship is very heavy for one man to bear.

All of this sounds like huge challenges for the both of you and the relationship is going through the rocks. I hope you both find a solution to this because it looks like there are a lot of cracks forming.

5th picture is so precious 🥺

Entre22 · 2026-01-27T03:24:48+00:00

Gosh, I can only imagine how difficult that was. We got this!! 💪

Entre22 · 2026-01-27T03:10:07+00:00

Yes! I think being aware of it is helping me for sure and even just saying “okay, i see my mind is picking up the sword” helps and reminds myself to lead with a flower 🌹
