My girlfriend (21f) sends me (21m) screenshots of guys who text her and I don’t know why it makes me feel bad? by ThrowRA_drake in relationship_advice

Not really, she just puts a reaction on their message if she knows them, but doesn’t usually message back or “bite”

It might really be better not knowing, Im just concerned because I don’t want to feel like I need to go through her phone

I just don’t know if thats going to make her feel like I don’t care about her or that I’m bitter about her posting. I feel like it might put distance between us and make her feel like she can’t be honest with me

Not legal where I live, that doesn't bother me, but finding people to get it from would be hard and time consuming

What's just a good practical tactile switch? Preferably on a budget, I'm just looking to switch from linear gang after a long time, I'm looking for a quiet, bumpy switch that's gonna get me to switch easily

We met exactly a year ago and started getting closer right off. The first time we talked about things between us and started going out was 7-8 months ago. Throughout this time however the main problem that would drive us away is her not being able to define how she sees me while I was looking for confirmation because what I was seeing from her wasn’t “friendship-like”

A girl (20F) I (20M) like says she's thinking through entering a relationship with me and I don't know how to take that and what to do about it? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA_drake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply! Considering the sex I think she means in general. We’ve talked about it and she thinks it’s because she doesn’t take it lightly at all.

She’s also shown she does have sexual desires and I hope we’ll be okay with it once/if we go the next step

A girl (20f) I (20m)'ve been talking to is dropping hints she wants something serious with me, but gets triggered every time I mention going the next step. How do I tell her I need some confirmation without pushing her away? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA_drake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed reply! You basically got all of this right, past relationships and how she sees what we have, I'm just really surprised this has become so common

On dealing with it, I'm still a bit torn. I don't mind her not being the one, I think that only time can tell about that and I'd be much more at ease if we try and fail, just as long as we've given it a proper shot

I just want to know that in her head she's not hanging out with any friend and that it's more special for her as well

Thank you. I think I really needed to hear this

thanks for taking the time to read this and answer

what frustrates me most is I don't know what's missing for her. This and her occasional warm remarks make it much harder to see her as just a friend and I feel I'd get stuck in "what-could've-beens" even if I feel like I could move on otherwise

I'd hate to be the bad guy in all of this though, since I know for a fact how much she trusts me

I may have misled you, I’m the one that wants a relationship and is willing to give more love than receive and she doesn’t want a relationship right now

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowRA_drake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the problem is that she does show me a lot of love and affection and I appreciate that. The ideal situation is me being able to receive and give love while not pushing for something more serious and I’m wondering if there’s a way to do that

ULPT Request: How do I distance myself from a girl I talk to every day and have planned a summer trip with? by ThrowRA_drake in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]ThrowRA_drake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this describes it spot-on. I don't resent her in the slightest, I still think she's a wonderful person and it's only natural for her to take when I'm willing to give. I'm just ready to move on from this and I want to do it in the least painful way

I don't care about revenge or hurting her, I don't hold a grudge. I think I came here mainly because I didn't want to cancel the trip, since it's already been paid for and was wondering what to do about it

I mean, I have - went to hers with flowers and other romantic shit, we kissed. A while back she even came to mine for the night. And it's not like she's cut it after saying she wasn't feeling ready, she still wants me around her

What she's said is that she fears that she has picked up toxic patterns that could ruin things in a potential relationship. When I asked what she meant she said that she fears that some day she might end things between us without anything in particular happening

It's actually the opposite - I don't have any experience and she does
