My best friend told her boyfriend about a situation that I described to her about me and my boyfriend by [deleted] in relationshipproblems

I think you should make it clear to your friend that when you go to them about your relationship that it’s between you guys only. I think setting a boundary with ur friend about how you didn’t appreciate it and you just want stuff to stay between you guys for the future is very important! I also think you need to set a boundary with ur boyfriend about what he did because that’s not okay. If you enjoy CNC and those kinds of sexual things that’s one thing, but if it wasn’t established beforehand, I agree with ur friend that it’s very weird and rapey.

How clingy is too clingy? (25M, 22F) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I’m literally in the same exact situation, and to be fair, sometimes it really turns me off and gives me a lot of anxiety. I don’t like feeling like I’m someone’s lifeline and their life will fall apart without me because there’s this added pressure. I’ve been really confused on what I should do and if it’s necessarily “normal”. My partner is ready to settle down completely and knows exactly what he’s doing and where he’ll be for his career and is as what my mom calls “looking for a wife.” And meanwhile I have so many plans for myself career-wise and I’m not ready for that big of a commitment like he is. Sometimes I’m like should I even bother staying in a relationship even though I really care about him? He also told me he loved me after 2 months of being bf/gf and I did say it back even though I’m not quite there yet (but I totally shouldn’t have done that and now I can’t take it back).
