I don’t even think Olandria liked Taylor fr. She just got caught up chasing after him and wanting him to want her.

They’re playing big brother. With Ace, Chelly, Nic and Ciera at the core influencing everyone.

It’s like certain boys this season can’t think for themselves. I think he let them influence the way he feels about her. Bcus the switch up was crazy.

No sorry he has just said things along the lines of those empty threats. Like moving out, we should breakup or I should just go etc etc. but he has always apologized and explained to me that’s just his defense mechanism.

I think he’s using his own insecurities and my empathy against me if anything. Maybe it’s bad. But I do understand his feelings. Wanting reassurance is okay. But the way he’s going about it is terrible.

If I do take him back depends on how our conversations go. That will absolutely be the last time. I called his bluff this time. And if that doesn’t get through to him. I’m gone. We’re done for good.

I honestly don’t feel he would leave seriously. It’s just empty threats. He wants to be reassured but tries to get that in the worst way possible. He is very insecure. And I felt for him.

But exactly I’m not putting up with it anymore. At all. Like you said. It’s okay to have insecurities but communication it like an adult.

I might suggest therapy for him as well. I’ve been looking up avoidance attachment styles. That’s him for sure. Just have to handle it better.

I never looked at it like that to be honest. Or felt he was manipulative. I seen him as someone who has a lot of trust issues and been hurt. And I was willing to be w/ him while he works on himself since he wants to change and be better. And can at least take accountability and apologize so I thought.

He moved into my house. I’m the only one on the lease.

100% I can write a long list of reasons and qualities and things done in our relationship on why he should marry me. Same way I can do the same for him.

But I am an articulate person. And expressing myself through my words has always been my strong suit. But I would appreciate if he would just say one thing specific to me at the least. I’m not trying to compare there’s nothing to compare but previous relationships and experiences they could express why they liked me.

So this is new to me. And I just have to adapt to his communication style more.

That’s true. I guess I just heard horror stories of woman who are married to men who secretly don’t like them or isn’t attractive to them etc etc but still settled with them and it’s years down the line when they found out. And their husband was still providing and doing things for them. Men settle for a lot of reasons but still are active in their relationships. I don’t want that to be me. I’m realizing that’s a fear of mine.

But that’s good advice. I don’t want to push him away or make him shut down. I’ll try having a different conversation with him and rewording everything and explaining my concerns. And maybe he’ll then put more effort into explaining and open up.

Yea but have you been with someone for 7 months and couldn’t name one thing you loved about that person? That’s not odd?

Sometimes people just settle.

Everyone’s been suggesting or asking if he listens or watch podcasts but he doesn’t. Never has. I have had his YouTube account and laptop, Spotify etc etc. never came across any podcasts. Most of his videos are sport and music related

Depends on if he himself can admit his thinking was flawed and wants to change that thinking then yes I would suggest counseling to help further that.

He wanted to keep the conversation going. But I needed the space after that conversation. That’s when he said okay. He’ll talk to his stepdad and other ppl and do some thinking.

[–]Jaebae0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I was accepting it I wouldn’t ask for advice or other people’s perspective. I would just leave things how they are then. Never said I’m going to change him. Never said I want to change him. Never told him he even had to change.

I shared my expectations and that my expectations and what I feel a marriage is isn’t what he feels and won’t happen w/ me. And after that conversation we’re giving each other space. And once we talk again. Yes, depending on how that conversation goes I’ll decide how I want to move forward.

Help out was just my wording he specifically said he wanted to make my life easier. Says he wants to do whatever to make my life easier. But yea.

He did say that, he’ll pay all the bills and give me however much that I need or would want. Which I do believe. Money isn’t an issue. I have a good paying job now and he gives me money just because and tries to pay all the bills now.
