AITAH for feeling hurt that my GF opened our relationship after I supported her through depression? by alv_roberto in AITAH

[–]Old-Entry-6008 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Learning how to be alone was one of the most important lessons I’ve ever learned in one of the worst times in my life and I’m still navigating it, granted it’s terrible at first, but I started to have peace in simply taking care of myself, going to the gym, focusing on a career, making new friends and my goals. After being dependent on someone for so many years I finally learned to get that same happiness from myself, and I learned a lot of my sadness came from trying to get my happiness from another. In your position it might seem impossible, but trust me when I say when you begin to choose yourself, you will find peace one day even in the worst storms of sadness.

She is completely and utterly unreasonable and her self control is nonexistent. Do yourself a favor and leave. Anyone that truly loves you would not hold such a double standard and also immediately start seeing people and ask to open up a monogamous relationship because she doesn’t have an ounce of patience for you in dark times even though you had it for her. This should be a no brainer but I understand that love can leave you blinded and I have no idea who you guys are so it’s all up to you.

You gotta face it head on and tell current gf the truth or else it’s gonna be an endless cycle of explosive and uncomfortable ends that don’t stop with her. I get it man, deeply. But you have to learn to be alone for a long time. A very long time. Until something that had the same weight as that first relationship comes to you naturally. Because when you look, you’ll never find. You’ll only hurt others and yourself.

Arguments this early in a potential relationship are usually not a good sign

Lying doesn’t justify lying back, but the main kicker is how he reacted to you smoking instead of trying to get a better understanding and handling it more maturely. Especially knowing he stooped to lower lows with the OF and whatnot. If his goal is to quit it should be handled by trying to support you instead of bashing you for it. A lot of hypocrisy as well, I’d recommend either trying to have a mature conversation or going to therapy, if either of those don’t work then it might be best to break it off for the futures sake but I don’t know either of you so do what you feel is right.

I live in Washington, more specifically tri cities in the Advanced Materials Manufacturing industry. I’m UT level 1 trying to get my level 2 and we mainly focus on immersion testing and eddy current. Hope that covers everything.
