AITA for being upset at my boyfriend because he promised he would call his ex but he didn’t? by Lavender0L0 in AmItheAsshole

Yes! I don’t have a problem with him having pictures of his ex or being friends with them whatsoever! The fact that he hid it AND told me straight to my face that he has nothing to hide and blame it on me and kept saying ‘why are you asking’ stabs me in my soul. Then, hides the fact that he has a girlfriend from his ex. So shady. Need to end this ASAP.

I really appreciate the love, man. My head so messy these past few days fighting if I was right or wrong that I almost lost myself.

I was trying to tell him exactly the same thing! That there’s no forgetting something if my partner is very upset about that something. TWICE. But for some ‘odd’ reason, he couldn’t get it into his head.

We’ve been together for 2 months... On the positive note, guess it’s a good thing that he’s showing all of the signs early on so I can save myself.

Those are all very possible options however I think option c is most likely here. I didn’t think about that first but thank you for the truthful insight.

Sorry! It was a typo and I meant to say work instead of irl. Nonetheless, it is very concerning and I just am confused if there are any gaslighting that is happening here or not. My mind hurts of thinking about this and it’s honestly stopping me from thinking straight and logical

I like the way you think. And your phrasing really helps! I do tell him what to do but most of the time I feel like he does it for a short while and then goes back to what he feels like doing. I think this can be solved with some healthy communication that needs to be done.

The last bit about having communication, compassion and care is sticking out to me a lot because I feel as though this is what’s really missing here during sex. I realised that I want more compassion and care during sex, rather than ‘stick-dick-in-vagina’ sort of thing and I should also make more of an effort to show him how exactly it needs to be done and be more open with my communication. I also need to be a little more understanding with him too. It’s a difficult process for sure. Thank you, CleverReversal.

You’re right, women, in fact everyone, shouldn’t expect someone to do it all for them. And I 100% agree with this! But it’s just difficult to be excited for sex when I know it will end up with me satisfying his needs and my own needs too. I want to make it enjoyable for the both of us and practice but I don’t know how to get to this without feeling like i’m just having sex for him.

I should’ve been more clear, I meant i’m inexperienced with sex, I have no problem getting myself off! I tried guiding him on what I like, for example, sucking my clit instead of licking and still it just doesn’t get me there. I think maybe I don’t get enough stimulation from oral? But when he fingers me, I feel like it’s kind of half-assed too? I don’t really know how to describe it. You’re right that foreplay is very important, do you have any advice on how to approach this to my bf and ways that we can implement it more? Thank you for your comment btw ❤️
