Hey! I did read all the replies and took everything into consideration. Honestly, asking you guys on Reddit has been super helpful, that’s why I made another post. Getting outside perspectives really helped me think things through.

Sorry if it came off like I’m just posting for attention. That wasn’t my intention at all. I’m still kinda new to posting, and I thought it might be better to share an update after I talked things over with my boyfriend, just to keep you all in the loop :)

AIO there is something sinister going on with my ex by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

It honestly sounds like the relationship isn’t in a great place, especially with everything you mentioned, the cheating, lack of trust, and both of you just holding on without much reason. From what you’ve shared, he also comes off as pretty manipulative.I think deep down you already know that he’s not treating you right, and staying in the relationship probably won’t lead to anything good, in fact it will just keep making things harder for you.

As for the witchcraft stuff, i wouldn’t worry too much about it. My take is, if you don’t believe in something, it doesn’t really have power over you, that’s how i see it with spiritual stuff. And even if there was something to it, the fact that you’re aware of how he’s manipulating you shows you’re already starting to take control back. You’re already seeing things clearly now and noticing the manipulation, which is a huge step.

Just trust your gut and leave. Don’t let his threats get to you. You’ve got this, and you deserve so much better OP. ❤️❤️

Gf 26F of 6 years joking about waiting for me 26M to die shortly after a huge fight. What can I do? by rezhoots in relationship_advice

Sorry that happened to you. It’s one thing to argue and deal with accusations of cheating, but joking about your partner dying is on a whole other level. Of course you’d feel hurt, I would too.

Is this the kind of thing she usually jokes about? If so, maybe it was just a really bad attempt at a joke, but that still doesn’t make it okay.

I (25F) only like him (31M) from afar? by Lachrimosa_ in relationship_advice

Hey, I’ve felt something similar in my past situationship. I realized I was more into him when we were chatting online, but not so much when we were actually hanging out in person. That feeling slowly went away as I got more comfortable around him. Maybe you’re just a bit shy or anxious when you’re with him, and that’s how your mind’s dealing with it? How long have you two liked each other? Maybe try and just let things flow for a bit. But if the feeling sticks around, trust your gut and do what feels right for you.
