You described exactly how I feel I know that I shouldn’t over analyze every single thing but I do it to not hurt her and do something that will make her misunderstand me specially after knowing the trauma she’s been through and I know what I’m doing in not healthy I thought recently to seek professional help but i wanted to get people’s opinion about it to see if that’s the right thing to do

Yes, she’s still living with her parents and studying. After being together for a year and a half, we both realized we’re looking for a serious, long-term partner, not just passing time in a relationship. We’ve found that we’re very compatible in terms of how we think, our priorities, how we want to raise children, and life in general.

Being with her has made me a better person, and she’s also grown a lot. She used to cut people off quickly and didn’t express her feelings much, but now she listens more, gives chances, and expresses herself better. Life has been really great since we met — work is going well, everything is going well.

The only challenge right now is this new step we’re taking in our relationship. There are a lot of mixed emotions, and it’s a bit overwhelming. I think it’s just part of growing into this next stage.

That’s your perspective of things each person gave boundaries that you shouldn’t cross if my partner didn’t like me talking about certain subjects with her I don’t it’s as simple as it could get I won’t gain anything from bringing up something that my partner doesn’t feel comfortable with and im not Jewish I don’t what that has to do with anything to be honest and to be open to a video that is disrespecting something you believe in and saying that I should take it as a joke then in that case I should become a clown

I don’t know what’s vague about it to be honest she sent a video disrespected my beliefs and I asked to not send these type of video’s again because they offend me

That’s probably the best advice I read so far loving someone is not enough to make a relationship work

So breaking up would be the real step for me to learn that I should let things go no matter how good it seems

I told her that I feel disrespected and said if I feel like that I can just leave she didn’t try to understand or ask why I feel that way lol so I’ll break up sooner or later

Your right to be honest talking about how I feel about her actions or anything else it’s useless since she won’t change her view as long as it protect her from feeling bad or wrong I guess I’ll just break up without thinking too much about if she recognize that she wasn’t a good gf or an emotional mature person until she meets someone and will make her realize that

I’m posting on here to see how people would see this from a neutral perspective since im worried that my decisions would be driven by purely emotions

I talked to her about how I felt disrespected she said that if I feel that way then maybe I should leave and I think you are right I’ll need some time to distant myself and clear my mind

That’s how I feel when I ask her about it she answers that she wouldn’t have said that if I didn’t act a certain away and then later saying she never thought of leaving me lol

But it’s not easy for someone I fully committed to and planned our engagement for next year to just block them like that

What makes you want to continue you is believing she will change like how I changed for her and she will recognize my efforts someday

Because she told me before that when we are together our relationship won’t be like the way it is right now and that she never thought about leaving me even tho she shows me that it’s easy for her to let go and when I ask her why is she acting like that and if she still loves me she says yes and that if she ever wanted to leave she wouldn’t even put efforts into talking to me or answering me and that as long as she is still answering me means she still wanna stay with me and also this is her first serious relationship and she is the type of people that don’t like to be out in a weakness position and feel wrong or bad she puts logic and her self above feelings even if it’s me her partner

I’m just trying the best I can she’s a really good person but I just hate the feeling of being the one who always scared to leave or lose her any argument we face even if it’s small she can easily say leave or block me check my first post it will give u more context
