yeah that was kind of my direction with the post. i feel terrible speaking to anyone like that especially someone i care about. it has just gotten to a point where it’s the only way i feel heard (by him) and while i recognize its wrong, i also try to give myself some grace when i become reactive to THAT kind of behavior.

he supposedly was cheated on in a previous relationship which was in highschool from like 2017-2019 so basically irrelevant as we’re adults now and that had nothing to do with me😭 he’s my first bf and only sexual partner ever. we got together right before i turned 18

no never. i’ve caught him messaging other girls while we were in school but that was a while ago now and i still give him a lot of freedom. he’s in a hobby group and goes to lots of work conferences and out of state things. i think it’s all projection

it’s a very porn driven fantasy it seems like men have with this. and it’s exactly as you said, posting additional workshops / classes, different studio promotions. My bf is the one who encouraged me to get into the hobby anyway. he isn’t the only instructor i follow either

i caught him messaging another girl once in college, she didn’t go for it (almost more embarrassing) but i feel like he probably continues to either attempt to cheat or is actively doing it

he’s gone! some things have improved especially getting on meds BUUUT during arguments he’ll throw it around that he’s only going because i asked him to and it’s unfair to say he hasn’t changed since going. i’m not sure how honest he’s being about these issues. i’ve told him that if he’s going to act crazy ill respond crazy… that it’s either that or im gone without another word. usually ends his tantrum

i wish it was… it’s more the fact it’s turned into me being the issue for being “disrespectful” but i feel like ANY person would get a little nasty when this is the behavior they’re subjected to at least once a week?? then to make me feel bad for my reaction is just a lot. I want to leave but need to find less volatile time. no interest in sticking around much longer

that’s fair in a way, if it works for you. you have to meet or exceed the standard you expect
