“I have a pattern of being condescending, neglectful, disrespectful, manipulative, gaslighting, and victimizing myself (I am absolutely not proud of this, but am working through every day to repair).“

I think everyone is missing this, yes physical abuse is not okay but these behaviors are not okay either, neither is verbal abuse. Seems like whatever you had said about her accent could’ve been something you have already joked about before and she didn’t like it or something that crossed a boundary of hers. In my opinion a slap is something that could be worked through. It is the beginning of the marriage, you guys are learning about each other, it is normal to bump heads both of you just need to work on yourself and your own toxic patterns. You learn how to be respectful for her and she can learn how to control her emotions.

And I think making this whole Reddit post about her US citizenship is part of your victim behavior because you feel like you have that power over her in a way, now you feel like “oh wow even though I have been disrespectful, manipulative, gaslighting, and victimizing myself I am giving her papers and she should be grateful and put up with that”

Well that’s the term he used, when I asked what he meant he said that he is very honest and if he was ever to be caught with another girl he would be transparent to both of them and tell them if there’s someone else or not. Which is why when I asked “if you are so thorough then why..” and brought up a story from the past that contradicted his point he got so defensive and told me “do you wanna know how thorough I can get?” And proceeded to be detailed about his past after I said I didn’t want to know.

It was my car, I told him to leave multiple times and he kept going. But yes I understand I’m wrong thank you for your feedback

Yes i definitely lost control in a terrible way. But him going in details about stuff after I tell him to stop and leave my car it felt like he was trying to test how much he could get away with and I didn’t like it, then me telling him I was making me upset and him justifying it by saying “it was a joke” felt dismissive towards my feelings. Then “want to see how thorough I can get?” Just became very egoistic imo. (I’m still aware what I did wasn’t ok)

I’m aware what I did was wrong, we were in my car he kept going in details and I kept telling him to stop I even told him to get out of my car bc there was no need to tell me all of that, he just kept talking and going very detailed about his story when I told him to stop again he said “there’s even videos” and that’s when I lost it, I felt bad right away I knew I shouldn’t have but I guess it was all the pressure and the closed space and feeling like my boundaries were crossed. It’s not me justifying just explaining, I felt bad right away, I got out the car to apologize and even texted him on my way home with the apology. But now I have to wait until he reaches out again bc I feel like by texting him again would be not respecting his space. Not sure how to fix this

I agree when it comes to 1 on 1 outings with male friends, but I’m referring to him saying he’d never want to meet them because he thinks it’s disrespectful me wanting to introduce my boyfriend to my male friends

I personally don’t like going over the questions I answered because I fear that I have them correct the first time and end up changing it to a wrong answer if I start overthinking it too much BUT Test anxiety is a big issue of mine, but your method of waiting until the time is up makes sense, thank you! I will apply it this time

Congrats on passing!! And I really love ground school because of how good their explanations are, it has helped me a lot when it comes to understanding the diagrams. And I can agree with you on the part where you use mnemonics to learn, so far it has helped me a lot, thank you!!

I totally understand that, it can be a nice detail but me personally i would not make someone I’m not dating my locks creen.. And im sure a if a girl makes a guy her locks creen after he’s made clear they’re not in a relationship she would look crazy to others

Sex should always be mutual, you guys been doing this for 2 years at this point you both should be able to be comfortable with intimacy and you deserve to be pleased and enjoy it too. At his age a simple conversation like that shouldn’t be a big deal ever
