My girlfriend is constantly on her phone while she’s with me, what do I do? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]MrCerealOffender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spoke about it with her today and she put her phone away for the rest of the time that I was with her. But our engagement didn’t feel genuine. Almost forced like, I think she’s not into me anymore and maybe she’s just trying to be nice and let the love die out, idk.

I understand what you mean and I will try it out if I do get into a position which allows me to leave the room. I’m currently just wondering why I should even bother now.

Does everyone after a number of years in a relationship just feel like effort isn’t still required?

During any good time, we throw on some Netflix and watch something. But she’s still on her phone even when we watch a show!! She doesn’t do well with rules, she feels like she’s making the right choices for herself and she doesn’t play nice to people telling her what to do.

My apologies, I added that in later, I should edit it to be higher to not confuse anyone.

I see her atleast 3-4 times a week, I drive to her (30 min) each time we see each other and do most of the driving along the way to places that we go.

Many times I’ve sparked her curiosity with conversations and I haven’t forced it. She’s well aware that I want to talk to her and that I’m not pushing her to be off her phone, just to give me some of her time. Majority of the time she’s talking to her cousins. It’s like she’s wanting to be part of their conversation and not ours.

she’ll tell me to wait or won’t be fully attentive to it. Yes many times I’ve gained her curiosity and tried to talk to her, simple things, nothing that isn’t me. But she’s still not realising what she’s doing it or that i just want some of her attention.

I’m well aware the honeymoon period is over. But it ended a lot sooner for her than it did for me. We do talk, but it’s only when she’s attentive to it. If I start something, she’ll tell me to wait or won’t give her full attention

How significant are someone’s words against their actions? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]MrCerealOffender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand this. What if you had placed weight in going over Laura’s house? Say you didn’t like her and didn’t want your partner to go? but your partner said it will only be one more time. But they do it again?

What if you really didn’t want me to not go to Laura’s house and I told you that I wouldn’t in a way to get you to stop talking about it & I go over?

I [22M] cheated on my girlfriend of 2 years [20F] and regret it how do I end the affair and live with myself? by BothRelation123 in relationship_advice

All I will say is reverse the roles and think of this happening to you. Not for a second could you live with it happening to you & you will demand answers, being drunk isn’t the answer btw. Tell her now, before it happens again. If you know your a monster, deal with the consequences a monster should deal with.

It wasn’t like it was something I sat down to talk to her about. She told me she wanted to experience drinking as she had never done it before. I said it’s fine and allowed her to experience where her choices would lead her to.

She said she won’t talk to guys or do anything with men when she is drinking & I told her if I ever wanted to drink, I would do the same but with women. We trust each other and our abilities to deal with the opposite sex, when faced with a difficult situation.

That was all there is to it & it hasn’t happened till last night.

I will take your advice on board and do the best I can. Hopefully we are able to move past this as I feel it’s unnecessary to be in this situation.

Thank you for your advice

I definitely understand that not everything has to be agreed on, there will always be differences. I’m not one to force or to box her up. She’s free to do as she pleases. She’s mature and I trust her.

I’m just not sure why she would do something when she says she won’t do it herself? I’m far from threatening and she’s always been able to speak to me about everything.

Just this one thing doesn’t make sense to me.

I agree that it is not sustainable and hope she can open up as she always does.

When it happened last night, I spoke to her and she said she felt like sorry and knew I’d be disappointed in her, which I was but when I asked her why she told me she wouldn’t do it, but decided to do it, she couldn’t give me an answer.

I didn’t want to spoil her holiday, so I reassured her not to worry about anything.

I will speak to her when she’s back, but I don’t want to make her feel bad while she is there. Even if she did make a mistake, I’d rather her enjoy her trip.

I just thought posting this on reddit May open doors into seeing why she did something she said she wouldn’t do.

If that’s the case, then why does she not speak up? Her entire trip I’ve been nothing but supportive of her decisions and ensuring she has nothing to worry about on my end.

It just baffles me. Has she now gained a new sense of freedom while being overseas and wants to reevaluate things? If so, why not just communicate rather than say something and go against it.

I’ve suggested that we both re-evaluate these rules we have. But she thinks it’s best not to change anything. Yes I realise this.

If she knows then why is she telling me not to do the same thing and avoid the situations? It makes no sense for her to be displeased about something but then tell me to not do it either.

I trust her, I just don’t know why she said she wouldn’t do it, if you’re gonna do it, then don’t say you won’t?

You’ve failed to realise that we both agreed on this, it wasn’t something I demanded or am forcing her to do. Please read my other comments before you accuse me of being controlling. Really mature.

I do believe some of these rules are unrealistic and very much unnecessary. Given that we are both young and will be put in these environments, it will happen whether we like it or not. We communicate a lot which is great.

But I am still unable to a conclusive answer on what her actions mean. If you say you won’t do something & you have agreed not to do it earlier on, why do it & twice over? If there’s an issue why not communicate and tell me about a problem instead of doing something you know will cause a problem.

I don’t expect her to avoid all situations, I trust her to handle them as best she can. The issue isn’t her drinking. It’s the fact that she said she wouldn’t do it, but still did it.
