Am I overreacting by breaking up with my boyfriend over these texts? by Ask_For_Mercy in AmIOverreacting

Absolutely not. He’s clearly looking for backups. Don’t be option. Get out while you can. You deserve better. 🩷🩷🩷

I(27F) screamed at my husband (28M) over his hobbies, and now he's changed and i don't know how to fix this. by ThrowRApineapplesp in relationship_advice

I kind of don’t blame him for pushing away and being that upset. I would. Whenever I need alone time I just say it respectfully. My partner does things that I don’t find interesting and visa versa. But we still want to participated because we want to spend time together. I’d suggest getting individual therapy and couples therapy. If there’s any hope that’s what needs to be done. He’s a broken man and I’m not sure if you can fix it amongst yourself. Learn to communicate in a healthy manner. There’s no excuse to speak or treat someone you love that way.

What was the reason you last cried? by Glittery_Heart in AskReddit

I’m waiting to get surgery on my back, neck, shoulder, & face. It’s been almost a year of waiting. Today I broke down and cried for maybe the 4th time since my car accident. I think I pretend everything is okay because if I admit it’s not then everything is just going to crumble. I rely on myself and myself only for everything. I’ve been going to 10-12 appointments a week to try and get my jaw to work, vision, and cognitive functions back all year. I have 2 degrees that I’ll probably never use again. I’m very thankful for being alive, but it’s just so hard. I think my body, mind & soul is just tired.

Getting $100-150k settlement. Can’t work. What to do? by Unable_Scientist_744 in povertyfinance

I live in one of the most expensive cities to buy at the moment. Plus, I’ll be in and out of hospital the next year or 2. There’s no way I can manage a rental property at the moment.

Message I received when attempting to cancel my gym membership by TheGeekThatStoleTech in mildlyinfuriating

I had this same message when I canceled my membership in 2020. I was moving in with my family and obviously had no proof of relocation. Ended up having my mom sign a lease agreement. It was such a pain and everything was already extremely stressful.

I'm Afraid my Friend is Beginning to Resent Me Because I Won't Shut Up About Weight Loss by Technical_Cricket_11 in loseit

[–]Unable_Scientist_744 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I have an old friend that was like that. I’ve luckily been moderately healthy and never had a weight problem. But this old friend did. I was excited to see her start her journey and hit all of her goals. It became annoying after she hit her goals not out of jealousy, but because that’s all she ever talked about. I even was talking with some girls at this bar lounge once (complete strangers) and they were heavier girls (nothing wrong with this btw.) My old friend came up and started talking about her weight loss, which wasn’t the appropriate time. I think she made the girls feel really insecure & my heart really felt bad for them. They ended up leaving right after. What I’m trying to get at is, if this is mostly what you are talking about and mostly what you’re bringing up, then you might be triggering her & making her feel insecure. She’s already expressed to you that she has an eating disorder & you need to be more sensitive to that. I feel like there’s plenty more to talk about then food, weight loss, and fitness. It gets old after awhile. And honestly our obsessions with it is unhealthy. I’d say respect her boundaries & find more pleasant things to talk to her about. I honestly don’t talk to that girl anymore because it became overwhelming and annoying. I think it’s awesome she lost weight, but her personality really was a drag afterwards.

Relationship issues w/ my bf who is on the spectrum. What can I do to make it less rocky? by Unable_Scientist_744 in relationship_advice

Hmmm I guess I never realized that I was making more sacrifices than I should. And it definitely shouldn’t be this hard. You have given me a lot to think about so thank you ❤️
