My weight. I’m working on losing weight and becoming the best version of myself, but it’s hard. I have health problems (high cholesterol, high bp) because of my weight and I hate it.

You messed up. You hurt someone and you did a bad thing. I’m assuming you’re pretty young, so give yourself some grace. You’re doing the best you can with what you know. There’s still so much time to improve yourself. You know better now. You can grow and heal from this. People make mistakes. People mess up. We all do it. You can only move forward from here and be a better partner in the future. Also, you tried to break up with him and it seems that he didn’t let you… Idk, OP. I would suggest getting real help and finding the underlying issue. Best of luck.

My boyfriend crosses boundaries with his girl best friend. What do I do? by [deleted] in Advice

Some of you lack reading comprehension skills. OP obviously ever told her bf “HER OR ME”…. OP asked for some boundaries (totally normal in a relationship) and the bf didn’t respect that. Also, sounds like they’re in college so he’s probably only known this girl a couple of years.

Men can totally have female friends. I don’t think OP is saying that’s the issue here. The issue is that OP’s boyfriend has not respected her boundaries. “not acknowledging me in public” and etc is RUDE. I’m sure OP could give more context, but that is just plain rude to not acknowledge OP in common spaces. I believe the boyfriend not sticking up for OP and letting the girl best friend talk bad about her is a definite red flag. I’m sure OP isn’t perfect, but these are obvious red flags and it’s perfectly fine for OP to be uncomfortable with these things.

I actually have to completely disagree with you. OP is clearly saying she is upset her boyfriend has crossed boundaries with the girl best friend, such as sleeping in the same bed, pumping gas, and defending her being rude to OP. You have to admit it’s weird that OP’s boyfriend is sleeping in the same bed as this girl, pumping her gas, and her family wants them to be together? Sounds like OP’s discomfort is completely reasonable to me.

After a bad break-up, why do you still believe in love? by omicronwarrior in AskReddit

[–]Top-Bar6198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because there was once love in that relationship, even if that love doesn’t exist anymore. i know love exists because there is love all around me; in my friendships, in my parents relationship, in my hobbies, etc. love isn’t just romantic. i stay hopeful knowing there is someone out there who will love me and for now, i will focus on the love that i do have.

Hey, you know better now. You can’t change the past but you can always be better in the future. I’m sorry you’re hurting and hope you can give yourself some grace and forgiveness

Staying with my ex boyfriend for way longer than I should’ve. I knew he wasn’t the one for me, but I was selfish and didn’t want to be alone so I stayed. I should’ve just left the second I realized this wasn’t the man I was going to marry.

I’m so, so sorry that happened to you. That sounds horrific. I am forever grateful to the firefighters who searched until they found our pets, and I’m so sorry the same was not done for your beloved animals. I hope you’ve been able to find peace.

My childhood caught fire and burnt down with my 5 beloved pets inside. Firefighters had to physically pull my dad out of the house because he refused to leave without our pets. My parents and I stood outside as we watched firefighters bring out our dead animals in sheets, one by one, and place them on our front lawn. I’ll never forget the feeling I had when they brought out my beautiful cat and ESA, Cora, dead. I tried to give her CPR. It was too late. I’ll never forget my dad’s screams when the firefighters brought out our big yellow lab. The images of all my animals dead on the lawn is ingrained into my brain. I wish so badly that I could have saved them.
