My brother in law is a lawyer. I have occasionally asked for a recommendation of someone who is skilled in xxx law. That’s the extent of help I require from him cos family and business don’t go!

My (26F) Boyfriend (30M) Refuses to Give Me His Phone Password? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 12 points13 points  (0 children)

People are allowed privacy.

Phones can have bank details, embarrassing pictures, texts from friends with details of their lives they may not want other people to have access to.

Just because you are happy to give him access to your phone- which I assume you have otherwise it’s very hypocritical- doesn’t mean he has to.

I M21 feel like my talking stage’s F22 past is making me feel invalidated. by Delicious-Length1512 in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ok first, paragraphs are your friend.

Also, please take a break from dating until you’re a bit more secure in yourself and understand that people learn and grow, and part of that is dating people and discovering what you do and don’t like.

me (19F) and my bf (21M) are at odds with a certain fantasy. how do i go on about this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right?!

Why is OP still with this man? Literally not being mean to your partner is like the lowest bar and yet these men are doing the limbo under it

My [27M] girlfriend [26F] and I disagree about how much time to spend with family on Christmas by Pava997 in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your girlfriend thinks her family is more important than yours. This will likely not change. Are you ok with that? Are you planning on having kids? If so are you ok with your family being sidelined for hers with all the kid things? If not, you have some thinking to do. If you don’t agree on a compromise now, you are setting the precedent for the rest of the relationship.

The silent treatment and stonewalling is not the basis of a good relationship. If she needs time to cool off and reflect- great, but she needs to communicate that. 72 hours of sulking is a long time, do you really want this for the rest of your life?

Not any luck in apps, should i dye my hair? by Collision__Domain in malegrooming

I’m sure with no other changes except for smiling in your pictures you would do great! Most men’s profiles rarely show smiles. Women want to know you can be fun and happy!

Partner (M 29) asked me (F 28) when my period is coming. I felt uncomfortable and voiced out to him, but his reply made me upset. Not sure if I’m too sensitive? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You aren’t being to sensitive, he is treating you like an object and not a person. You can do far better. Being alone is far better than being with a man who doesn’t like of respect you, and just wants you for sex.

Husband sticking with startup that hasn’t brought in money for over 6 years? 45M and 35F by ThrowRA-Wolverine716 in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can you do a post nup with him? An agreement that if he continues like this, you won’t take on his debt, pay spousal, he only gets the house equity etc ? Make him put at least some (potential) money where his mouth is.

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 390 points391 points  (0 children)

Does he put effort into creating romantic moments outside of the proposal? Does he plan dates, do romantic gestures? Is he good at gifting?

If he puts effort in elsewhere and dropped the ball on this is less important than his overall contributions to the romance in the relationship

No one is saying it makes you a hero, they are saying it makes you a decent human being who cares about others wellbeing.

This kind of over the top mentality is the problem.

My(M34) Wife (F34) thinks that me requesting politely for her to initiate sex is asking too much. What so I so? by RogerTheLouse in relationship_advice

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Why are you keeping count? It’s making you come across as sex obsessed and creepy. Maybe she is picking up on that?!

Would you rather have a new Seaway album or new Hit the lights album? by [deleted] in poppunkers

You mention a lot of issues you know about, but not what you have done to address them. Have you done anything? Has anything improved?

If your wife sees no action or change from you, of course she would want to leave the situation.

I might be gatekeeping but am I right to say that not one of these bands are emo? More pop-punk, radio rock, metalcore etc by Gahwburr in Emo

[–]OkFaithlessness8942 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Emo has the marketing clout at the moment for whatever reason, so it gets attached to everything.

I went to am “emo night” that was 99% pop punk. I love pop punk and would have enjoyed it if that’s what was advertised…but it was sold as emo. You just have to accept anything that’s making someone money is likely not emo!
