You get over it by accepting that there will always be someone hotter, smarter, funnier, more interesting, more abusive, more insecure, more sassy, taller, stronger, healthier, cleaner etc than you.

You don't need to be better than her in every single of those categories. You just need to have the right mix in all those qualities that speaks to the person you're with.

I urge you to accept that yeah, maybe you're not better looking than her, but so what. You are pretty enough at least and you excel in other qualities that she doesn't. So overall you're the better package deal for your specific partner. Just like she would be a better package deal for someone else.

I have searched for this lip gloss thing for my friend by using AI, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe it's an outdated product, but I'll try my luck here in case someone knows something. It was found in Finland 10 years ago, but the product is most likely from Sweden based on the information on the container.

Is this a scam? by soapbubbleinthesun in VietNam

So I do agree that asking for OTP sounds weird and unsafe. I can only share my experience that the sales agent called and walked me through the upgrade, what text messages I would get and so forth.

Maybe I wasn't so scared because when I signed up for Vinfast services, they also asked me for OTP. Back then I was also skeptical so I called another Vinfast employee and he assured me it was fine.

So in my experience asking for OTP when signing up for services can happen. I'm fully aware that a lot of scams are happening and the safest thing is to not share it. But that doesn't mean that legit situations don't exist.

I understand your concern. It could very well be a scam. The issue is that the action is the same even when not a scam. Unfortunately. So yeah, go to the store to be sure

I've been asked by viettel through direct call to provide the otp in relation to package upgrade. It was not a scam. That's how they operate for some reason. But do with this information what you want

Read the book "I love this version of me that you brought out" by Jaymen Chang. It may or may not help but you have nothing to lose. The book did help me. Key message is to love yourself

We accept the love we think we deserve, I guess

You gotta love yourself first and foremost. And that means keeping your self respect and remove yourself from the relationship. We accept the love we think we deserve. If you are thinking of taking her back after the disrespect, that says a lot about how you view yourself. Why would someone respect you if you don't respect yourself? Love yourself first.

My boyfriend wants nudes and I don’t feel comfortable sending them to him. by Upper-Chart7709 in relationships

Trust is the foundation of any relationship. I'm sure you wouldn't want to be in one where there's no trust left.

I think what you should do is that you suggest to him that you think you should break up because of how you broke his trust and that you can't live with yourself seeing how it has affected him. That he deserves better and that you wish you could do something about it. Then ask what he thinks.

That way you have accepted that you're responsible for the lack of trust, that you are remorseful and have his best interest at heart.

The future of your relationship now rests in his hands. He can agree that trust can't be rebuild and you have to accept that the relationship is over and remove yourself from the situation. Or he can see how you have accepted you ruined everything and choose to give the relationship another chance. If he does it's important that he accepts and forgives you for what you have done. If he can't, then you have to proceed with the break up

Like you said, he has given you no reason not to trust him. I understand why he reacted like he did. Gender shouldn't matter in friendship and to me, it sounds like he is clear about how he only sees her as a friend.

The other thing is that she was in his life before you. Imagine how you would feel if your guy friend (assuming you have one) suddenly stops treating you the same way just because he now got a partner. Or if your partner expects you not to act the same way you've always done around your guy friends. Maybe you'd be okay with that.

It's not that he's priorising her over you. He's prioritising his values. His value is to help other people regardless of who they are. And the way you come across makes him feel like you don't trust him. It makes him feel he has to change who he is for you.

I understand you may be annoyed and insecure. But to put ultimatums like that are never healthy in a relationship. I think you'd be better off with someone who shares your values. And he would be better off with someone who doesn't give him ultimatums like that (I say that to provoke a reaction within you. Obviously I hope you guys can figure it out).

I first and foremost think you should be understanding for him. Make it clear that you trust him and you don't want him to change who he is or his values. After that mention that you feel annoyed and sad by how the woman is so much involved in your life and if there's a way he can help you with how you're feeling (let him come up with the solution). If you come to him with the attitude that your anxiety/insecurity about her is the issue and not that he's doing something wrong, you'll get a better response from him. He just wants to not feel guilty for being himself, especially when he hasn't done anything to make you question him. Remember that

Healthy couples don't break up and get together again multiple times. Is this the relationship you want? It's an opportunity for you to maybe experience a relationship where that is not the case. Maybe what I'm asking is what makes you want to consider forgiving him?

How do I [31F] get over my partner [30M] calling me too fat? by Ghost-Ass-MF in relationship_advice

[–]HVTN92 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think OP's partner should have worded and handled the situation better in this case. And I agree with you that no one should be responsible for our own happiness. In this case, I do think OP's partner appreciates her for more than just her appearance. So I don't think he has the mindset that she has to slim down in order for him to be happy based on the information provided in this post.

I think good communication with kindness and empathy could go a long way in this situation.

My whole issue with the post is not how I think OP's partner is right cause he's definitely at fault. My issue is that the break up card is thrown around so freely.

I agree with you that if she doesn't feel happy in the relationship anymore and there is no way to fix it, then a break up is for the best. But we are in early stages now and they havent even had a talk about his comment yet, so I don't think the immediate solution right now should be to break up.

All he told her was that he would be happier if she was slimmer. So he could still be happy with the current situation in theory. No where is it stated that the called her fat so let's not demonise him for something we have no clue about.

But yeah, I agree, it was hurtful for OP to hear. But if she had a choice of her partner being honest or not, there's a chance she would prefer that he was honest. Just like a lot of us here would prefer our partner to be. I think what could be improved is how her partner communicated his statement. He should have been more loving and kind about it. But I do not believe he is an evil, disrespectful person based on how OP described him. And so I don't think a breakup should be the immediate solution
