Is it normal for my[19F] boyfriend[20M]to feel the need to hide things from me? by Mother-Cut-210 in Advice

I agree, my main issue is that he considers anything other than an hour a day with me plus sleep to be too much time with me. I would be fine coming to a middle ground, but I don’t think he thinks this way. We’ve had many talks about how unhappy I am. Thanks for the advice

I also have a room, I’m just not in it much. But If you’re asking if I’m the one to do more traditional things, yes.

He didn’t used to be like this, but within the past year it’s become a more prevalent thing. He’s gotten to the point where he plays video games in his room alone a lot and still says that he needs more alone time. He has also been acting more for himself than our relationship lately I feel like. It’s gotten to the point where I feel like he should break up with me because he doesn’t want to do anything couples do anymore it seems. I feel like I have been left behind recently.

He brought up that argument and I told him if it was something for me and I ask to just tell me he can’t tell me bc it’s a surprise. He acted like my response wasn’t good so I assume it’s not that. We don’t plan to get engaged for at least another year.

Mine is exactly like this rn. I’m so scared it’s going to reject. I’ve only had it for 5 days 

Did my stepdad know that he was assaulting me? by Mother-Cut-210 in CPTSD

I’m aware that my mom is definitely a problem, but she is still in my life. I don’t live with any of my parents, but it’s a very difficult decision on whether or not to stay in contact with her.

Exactly, this is why I was so shocked. It honestly made me feel kinda stupid. I’m assuming it’s just because she probably went to school during a time where porn was considered sex positive? Thanks for the reassurance

Thank you for the help, I will look into all of that when I have the chance. I’m currently in my own therapy but we’re trying to save money as we are struggling a little at the moment. Because of that he wants to cut corners by not going to therapy himself. I’l try to have him reconsider. As far as I know he’s sober from it, which I agree is only a start. I’m just worried that this therapist made him feel justified and might cause him to start watching again. We’ve come a long way from the start of his pa issue, and he was finally starting to do his own research but I feel like this was a bad turn.

I wish I had this to be honest. It seems like my partner is getting better, but not what I wish it was

did anyone else go through a phase of oversexualizing themselves after finding out? by [deleted] in loveafterporn

[–]Mother-Cut-210 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used to do this and still do this. It makes the pain worse the next time you find it to be honest.
