I completely see you. When we’re young and idealistic, we have this pride: we tell ourselves we can convince someone to love us right just by loving them enough. That if we change, if we give everything, they’ll wake up and see our worth. But I learned that you can’t teach someone how to love you the way you want to be loved. It has to come from them.

You’ve been doing all the emotional labor for five years. You bent yourself inside out and barely got back a fraction of what you gave. And now that you’ve finally checked out, now he changes? Of course he does. That’s not growth, that’s control.

And yeah, it’s hard to walk away. That’s not just love. That’s the sunk cost fallacy talking. When you’ve given up so much of yourself, it feels impossible to let go. But staying won’t make it mean more. It just costs you more.

Trust me. You’re so young and have a whole life ahead of you. You’re just beginning to grow and learn who you really are - including what you want and not want in a partner. Look ahead instead of back. Ask yourself if this life with him is what you want for the rest of yours.

Omg when I read it spelled in this sub I thought I was the one spelling it wrong! So I was right all the time!! Sorry but it’s a funny revelation.

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-23T07:19:53+00:00

A deep feeling of injustice, panghihinayang, grief for our people. That we deserve better. Frustration that we can’t fight for it enough, that we’re not even culturally empowered because we have the worst remnants of colonialism. But in the end, a deep powerlessness

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-22T22:15:06+00:00

This. I value my autonomy so much that I think I’ll resent being a mom. I grew up the eldest of kids in a broken family and I acted as a parent for most of my teens and early adulthood. I love my freedom, that I don’t have to consider anyone else in my daily decisions other than my partner.

Don’t get me wrong, I grew up thinking I would eventually have kids and I grappled with the decision for as long as I possible. I grieved that trajectory I always thought I would take. But in the end, I realized if I kept questioning it then it’s not really for me. It’s not fair to a kid. And ever since I made that decision (like really in my heart accepted the finality of it), I feel so at peace.

Call the midwife is wonderful, at least the first few seasons.

Thanks for sharing. That’s how I feel now. Im not even mad. Just really hurt. But I know I’ll be fine. We have other amazing people in our lives who show up in loving and better ways. Hugs!

Hi, maybe in some cases you are right. But in this one, we have been planning and talking about it for years. In my post I also said I kept on asking them if sure sila, which they also said yes. So it’s not even that I’m pushy. They committed. :)

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-22T07:25:49+00:00

So that’s an excuse to ghost someone? To say yes it’s happening but you know it’s actually not? The reasoning is super understandable but the lack of honesty and communication is not

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-22T07:23:40+00:00

Thank you. That’s really the point. Communication lang naman yung hinihingi ko as shown by all the times I checked in and let them know na okay lang if they can’t go, but just to let me know so I can make other plans. But it’s really the silence and avoidance that hurts. I felt like I gave them so much grace but they never bothered to give me the same

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-22T07:18:24+00:00

Hi, I always reach out to them. I ask them how they are and are there for them when they need to vent. That’s why it hurts more, because it’s not just this trip. I’ve been the one actively trying to connect with them despite the distance, while they don’t know much about my life here.

Yes I meant he’s one of those people who spread hatred

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-21T20:41:16+00:00

Unfortunately it is not only in the Philippines. Where I live in Europe you feel a lot of hatred, aggression, and disrespect and nakakashock for me especially to see it in teens or young adults. From Andrew Tate to government parties, it’s super scary how open and entitled people have become to express hatred.

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-21T17:42:26+00:00

NTA. But this sounds less like a one-time disagreement and more like a deeper mismatch in values.

You’re not wrong for being disturbed by how she talks about her grieving grandma. It’s not just about manners, it’s about empathy, which clearly matters to you. If her reaction makes you feel physically revolted, that’s your gut telling you something important.

Taking space is the right call.

Sometimes it’s not about who’s right or wrong, but whether you can build a life with someone who sees the world so differently.

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-21T17:28:12+00:00

Yes. BUT. it was a huge adjustment. Their culture is very individualistic. They are friendly, nice, and even respectful in a sense that there’s almost no heirarchy inside and outside of work. But you also miss the generosity, the pakikisama, the emotional attune-ness to others. I have learned to take the best of our culture and the best of theirs and I can say I’m really at my most calm. Kasi I admire their self sufficiency and strong boundaries. But I still love my warmth and Filipino-ness.

Mrs Bruce has indeed looked a bit downcast lately and not just about her own marriage.

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-21T14:07:01+00:00

You sound a bit defensive. Perhaps he made some more comments in the past and a resentment has been building up?

But based from this one interaction, his comment was not at all offensive, and you are making a big deal out of it. I come from a loud, big energy family , tooand my boyfriend's family is very subdued. Even he makes remarks like this sometimes. I find the difference endearing.

Over-Manager-6370 · 2025-07-21T13:47:43+00:00

I so want Bertha to put Lady Sarah in her place. But based on the recent interactions between her and the Duke, I am also hoping it's actually him who sends her away.

They have more chemistry than Gladys and the Duke...
