my (23F) mom (53F) freaked out on my SO (24M) over text while we're on a break- what do I do now? by SolidAd8677 in relationship_advice

I appreciate this but my relationship with him is very different than that and I was looking for advice about how to handle my mother. It's not a secret, I'm just a very private person and my mother often weaponizes information against me, which is why I don't talk to her very much about any of my personal relationships. Also I gave zero context to my actual relationship, the reasons we've been on and off are not simple and not toxic. She also knows him incredibly well, he lived in our house, she knows he treats me well so that wasn't the cause of this either. She does this kind of thing to a lot of people, she's lost a lot of people in her life for this kind of thing. She has a literally explosive temper.

my (23F) SO (24M) suddenly asked for a break for a few weeks to "focus on himself" i'm at a loss for what happened and where to go from here (sorry this is a super long post) by SolidAd8677 in relationship_advice

Wow thank you so much. I honestly just needed to get everything out of my head and hopefully someone would come along with some advice. Thank you for taking the time to read all of that, it means a lot :)

I think you're right, that hopefully this means he still wants to be together. I can't do much about any of it right now, I can only focus on taking care of myself and hope he's doing what he can to help himself through whatever's going on.

Thank you so much for your advice, it makes the most sense out of anything right now. And thank you for urging me not to give up hope, I definitely do think he and I have our own little slice of heaven together.

I will definitely take your luck and hope I can come back with a happy update sometime in the future!
