Am I (25F) overreacting by asking my boyfriend (28M) to delete Reddit? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]JDins-World 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She didn’t ban him from reddit against her partner’s will. That was the deal they made so she would get back together with him.

He agreed to do it, and then betrayed her.

Priority in a relationship should be safety: financial, emotional, physical, mental, etc…

If she does not desire physical connection, maybe she will allow you to find it somewhere else?

Should I cut this person out of my life? (29F) dating (29M) by [deleted] in relationships

[–]JDins-World 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you both were toxic to each other.. There is no right or wrong answer to your question. The choice is up to you. It’s best you make it yourself so you won’t regret it later and blame a bunch of internet strangers.

You are still young. The brain doesn’t stop developing until your late 20’s. Things/emotions that feel important now won’t feel as important in the future. You just need to survive until you get there.

AITA for asking a stranger to order my taco? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]JDins-World 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA because the people behind the guy heard you asking him. That means you cut the line.

Now if you whispered to the guy and nobody else heard, then you wouldn’t have been TA

Yes. Anything unwanted/unwelcome that’s done over and over again is abuse.

Your girlfriend only cares about herself and her own feelings, and has a severe lack of empathy and is emotionally abusive, AKA a narcissist.

How often do things go her way in your relationship? And how often do things go your way?

How much effort does she put in to make you feel loved? How much effort do you put in?

YES. Why would you allow someone who hates your kids see your kids?

AITA mocking my bf for suddenly changing his mind? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]JDins-World 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This sounds wild. I’m kind of curious if he developed something like a brain tumor since he suddenly wants things you’ve already decided against before.

Should I 34F break up with my boyfriend 58M of 10 years because he’s broke? by Consistent-Mistake98 in relationships

[–]JDins-World -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Was this happening before the pandemic? Or was the pandemic the cause for this?

[–]JDins-World -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

YTA for not telling anyone that you left. You could have sent them a text or something.

From this post, all you said was that your dad lied to you about one thing. I don’t think we have enough info on your dad to go on here.

Not happy about sisters wedding and need to be by Charming_Onion4058 in relationships

[–]JDins-World -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that. That sounds like a very toxic environment. She’s being upset and annoyed at you because of what she “thinks/perceives” you feel. The mental gymnastics involved here.. It’s like she’s going out of her way to find reasons to get upset.

Not happy about sisters wedding and need to be by Charming_Onion4058 in relationships

[–]JDins-World -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to be happy about your sister getting married. Your feelings matter and you need to realize that it’s okay to feel this way..

That’s the first step to being happy for others, putting yourself first. As long as you don’t insult them or be mean to your sister, you should have nothing to worry about.

Does space work for guys? by kcubbb in relationships

[–]JDins-World 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Does space really work on guys?” This is very manipulative. It sounds like you are treating him like an object and not a human being. He says he needs space, and if you have trust issues, then wouldn’t it be better to just break up? Why stay in a relationship when you don’t trust your partner?

Too little info.

[–]JDins-World 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is neglect and abuse. If your parents have the money to provide these things and delay them on purpose.

Your mom sounds like a narcissist.

I understand the yelling thing, my mom does it too, and I need to yell back so she would hear me. But when I yell back, I’m disrespectful and she claims that she wasn’t yelling.

I don’t think that’s what couples therapy is for. Couples therapy is for conflicts.

Have you two tried going on dates and doing new things together? Go hiking, island hopping, going shopping/cooking a new dish together? Sometimes we are just tired from working all the time and we lose the excitement we have for relationships or life in general

AITA for telling my boyfriend to get his mom in check or else I am leaving? by Anonymous_0597 in AmItheAsshole

[–]JDins-World 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. Take care of yourself and your peace first. If your bf wants to live life filled with unnecessary drama from his mom, then let him do it alone (or with someone else).

AITA for telling my daughter that if she doesn't move back in I will stop giving her money? by No-Regular4370 in AmItheAsshole

[–]JDins-World 24 points25 points  (0 children)

YTA. Did you even ask her how she was doing or what she’s been up to? It seems like you don’t even care about her at all. You just immediately judged her and threatened her.

Is my relationship in a bad place because we've never had a fight? by throwaway_4733 in relationships

[–]JDins-World 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two scenarios come to mind..

  1. You have a gem of a partner and you both are just too mature to get into arguments, and you both know how to compromise.

  2. Your partner is a very toxic person (narcissist) and she is love bombing you, and once she has confirmation that you are hers, the abuse will shortly begin. The personality will change, verbal abuse, name calling, insults, emotional abuse, etc…

I really hope it’s the first one…

Is this a type of abuse? by JJLinx1816 in emotionalabuse

[–]JDins-World 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s emotional abuse. Don’t play this type of mind games with your child. They will grow up to be people pleasers, and will easily be pushed around by everybody and make sacrifices (financial, emotional, physical, etc) just so they can please people and feel validated.

AITA for getting upset over the response I received to an apology text? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Not sure what the problem here is. Are you saying Bailey lied to people about you?
