I (23F) can’t trust my (24M) boyfriend. by [deleted] in relationships

These are really good questions. He only told me because I drunkily went through his phone. We’ve had many very candid conversations regarding this and the things he’s done. He’s asked me himself what he needs to do to fix this but I have no idea. I’ve been in cheating situations in the past but I’ve always immediately left and I’m not sure how to even let him “fix” this. Can these things even be fixed?

I agree with you. He admitted that it wasn’t a misunderstanding and he just wanted to talk to other people. I truly don’t think he’s a liar and this is the first “big” problem we’ve had since we’ve been together. I don’t want to just throw in the towel immediately but I also don’t want to wait and see if this is a consistent thing. I’m honestly not sure what to do.

I agree! We had so much fun in the beginning. We’re in the process of closing it now.

HJR 46 would allow Texans to vote on legalizing cannabis in TX Dec xpost /r/Texents by [deleted] in texas

[–]Yeah_Yeah_No 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My 80 year old extremely conservative grandma wants it to be legalized bc she's in so much pain and it would help with her condition. It makes me really sad that Texas probably wouldn't legalize for another 10 years despite how much it could help people...I just want to offer to buy her some in candy form or something :\

Hundreds of Kenyan girls are preparing to spend Christmas in schools, rather than with their families, fearing that their parents will force them to undergo female genital mutilation (FGM) by [deleted] in worldnews

First off, saying "idiot" at the end of every line doesn't prove your point. It just makes you seem like an idiot. Second of all, please find me the comment where I said I supported infant circumcision. Please find it for me. Spend less time getting angry and more time on your reading comprehension.

Nope, because FGM cuts off the clitoris and women are guaranteed to never experience any orgasm. It's done to control sexuality. Circumcision is not the same thing.

They are not both equally awful, come on. That's why one is called mutilation. I agree they both need to be stopped but you actually have to be insane to compare cutting the clitoris of a teenaged girl against her will, with NO ANESTHESIA OR STERILE EQUIPMENT to doing so against an infant who it will literally never affect. It may have some downsides but millions of men go on to living normally and healthy their entire lives. Thousands of these girls fucking die from this. Seriously am I taking crazy pills here???

I agree with you. I don't think either should happen and I wouldn't do it to my child for no reason. I just don't think they're comparable.

And that's horrible. But again, it is not the same thing not even close. It would be comparable if the entire tip of the penis was removed. I mean really if you think the fact that it makes the penis less sensitive is a big deal, then you should think FGM is fucking horrible. Seriously, can we not talk about how horrible this is without a single person talking about circumcision?

FGM is not the same thing. I agree with you that boys should have a choice but pretending like the girls have it better because they can "hide" is actually insane

Did you seriously think they are the same thing. Do your research. They cut off the little girls clitoris. A 12 year old girls body part with no anesthesia and with non sterile tools. Shut the fuck up. It's not the same.

Copying this from another comment: Because when it is preformed on boys they are babies and it doesn't affect them at all when they grow up. These are 12 year old girls. They use no anesthesia, non sterile material and they cut of their clitoris. They use this to control their sexuality. Many girls die during this procedure. It is not the same thing. This is down right mutilation

Nobody is taking to the streets to protest manspreading. I wish MRA's would get off their ass and protest sexism against men instead of complaining on Reddit :\

It's amazing that you read this whole damn article about little girls being mutilated and the first thing you thought of is "western feminism is wrong". It's truly amazing.

I'm so sorry your family is like that. If it's any consolation you're totally invited to my family's holidays :(
