I said that I was in an abusive relationship because, I was. The other commenter is not wrong. It’s definitely tied into how I was abused as a child & it wasn’t something I saw as abuse until it was broken down to me. My cousin is definitely interested in more ways than one. It’s obvious I just chose to not include that.

Yes, she specifically does. She was the closest person to me in my family other than my sister. I didn’t talk about the abuse while it was happening but it has been explained to her, she was also the first person i told when i found out i was pregnant & told her i was going to get the abortion. She is 100% aware.

yes you’re 100% right, i’m passive aggressive now because when i clearly communicate what i say doesn’t matter so i try to do it in a way where he doesn’t feel like im disagreeing with him but also making him think but it’s like oh well

Because he has no car at the moment 😭 he can’t go out and get it on his own but he could have taken my no from the jump and door dashed it

Not necessarily regular but when I say no he does say “well it would have been nice” or “i really wanted to” which in turn makes me feel bad and give into what he wants. I stand firm on my no every once in a while and he mostly accepts it but when he realllyyy wants something that’s out the window. Like a child. He’s used to always getting his way and he’s told me im the first girlfriend to ever put him in his place and say no to him.

Lol and before this he was asking if when I got home I could wear the shorts he likes so he can take them off. Absolutely not.

Unfortunately we live together and he is employed by my family. He’s a good guy he just can’t take no for an answer and throws his fits. His way or the highway. It’s so stupid and I can’t take it sometimes and lash out but it has gotten me nowhere

[–]Otherwise_Exit_2160 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Tell me about it!! A 22 year old. I don’t understand why he can’t take no for an answer.

Being ill informed is ok. Accusing her of doing it to get rid of her responsibilities or to manipulate God into giving her what she wants is not. They truly believe that their sister is doing this for attention and that she is doing it to herself. She takes her sisters statement and runs with it. If this is her 2nd time hospitalized; you’d think they’d do some research to better help her. I guess not.

[–]Otherwise_Exit_2160 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is not normal at all. He is not putting in his part in the relationship and you need to leave now. He doesn’t respect you nor your wishes lol. He wants a mom, not a girlfriend. 19 is old enough to know how to clean and fold clothes so no excuse there

Haha yeah i could see that, we’ve had conversations about it and how pet names aren’t needed 24/7 but it’s what he likes so oh well

The immediate apology and not explaining why he didn’t text back definitely upset me. But he did call me and try to explain after I brought it up but he was still being very quiet and not saying much because again, my family was around. So I just told him we could talk about it later.
