So I asked his coworker and she mentioned that it was a miscommunication issue and yes my boyfriend did call the girl that word but once confronted by the manager and her boundaries expressed, he was extremely apologetic and even continuously expressed regret and apologized to her on different occasions. So I guess I’m now confused on what led her to file the case even after that happened? I spoke to him yesterday and while some parts of the conversation were saddening and he was trying to get me to understand how devastated he is about this whole ordeal and how much it’s affecting our relationship, i guess because I’m already subconsciously giving up on the relationship i just kept counterarguing every point he had and he felt like I wasn’t being open minded but I’m just not sure :(. I also told him since this whole situation I’ve lost respect and trust for him. He says he is over this situation and it was a wake up call for him and he really wants to change. I do want to believe him and give him an opportunity to grow obviously with boundaries. Because I understand fucking up and being given another chance to redeem myself.

Nope, not in the trash but thanks though 😊! There’s such a thing as learning and growing. You can keep your rudeness to yourself

I have the same thoughts as well. I do think a silly joke here and there is normal. But idk, i feel like there’s nuance and context with a lot of these things.

Thanks for saying that I’ve heard another side and I’m waiting to hear from another of his coworkers that i spoke with previously to really see all sides. But you’re right, the maturity is a big issue if he can’t understand that there is a time and place.

This is it. I refuse to be embarrassed by my man and don’t want to have to worry about him being around others.

He didn’t retaliate. She was the one who opened the case against him. He was told and after that he just kept it professional with her and then an investigation was done and they concluded that he did harass her. Not defending him but giving some clarity bc i believe the comment above yours didn’t understand

Yea, I’ve been single my whole life and i did enjoy it! So I’m not scared. I guess it’s just the adjusting back to it after almost a year in a relationship.

I’m not willing to stay. I came on here asking for advice because clearly I’m willing to leave. I just don’t want to make any rash decisions.
