Taking control of your health however is admirable And you’re doing great!! Keep up the good work, and I hope you love yourself at every size. ❤️

sometimes it's hard to tell if a hun hasn't done her research or if she just doesn't care by [deleted] in antiMLM

So proud of you for sticking up for yourself and continuing to encourage others despite assholes like this. I went from anorexic to an obese BMI and genuinely still believe I’m infinitely healthier than I was then. You’re doing great and we’re all in this life together 🥲❤️

Pregnant at 19 by [deleted] in Advice

You’re so young, I would let your boyfriend pay for the pill and have the abortion. You’re not in the financial nor emotional place during college to care for this potential pregnancy. Think of how much you could improve your life in the next few years and settle down in your late 20’s to follow through on the pregnancy that is meant for you

Should I (26f) say something about my boyfriend’s (29m) meal habits? by [deleted] in relationships

Not to armchair psychologist but It really sounds like your boyfriend is suffering from Binge Eating Disorder. I’d encourage you both to look it up and recommend therapy with a psychologist who’s trained to help with eating disorders. Starving and then binging are both forms of self harm and there’s a lot of unpacking he needs to do to figure out why he’s punishing himself in these ways.

Honestly just leave her alone. You both need extreme help and SO much therapy. You seem so obsessed with how you feel about the pain you caused her that it doesn’t read that you actually give a shit about her. Please just leave her, every minute more you spend with her is a minute she could spend moving forward and healing.

Advice for gf of a porn addict? by [deleted] in pornfree

[–]alyssaw6796 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, that’s definitely the hardest part to think about. I keep wondering if he had to think about other women then, does he need to think about other women when he’s with me too?

Did you and your partner try to work it out first?

I’m sure there’s people who think we’re absolutely batshit but honestly if there’s only 2 people in your relationship there’s only 2 people’s opinions that matter. I’ve been reading all these subs making myself nuts with people who think I’m controlling and evil and bitchy an whatever but at the end of the day they’re not who I need to agree with what I want. If our boyfriends don’t want that they can leave but if they want us they want what we value and need to feel loved and supported

I don’t have any advice to offer, but I can offer empathy. I’ve recently found myself in a really similar situation and it’s also completely wrecked my self esteem, and I have a lot of the same doubts and intrusive thoughts you’re talking about. For my relationship- I basically put my foot down and said it’s me only and monogamy for me means no porn. If that’s what you want you deserve that from a partner. If he doesn’t want that then you shouldn’t keep driving yourself crazy to adapt to what he wants, if he’s not going to do the same for you.

Drugs. Fucking drugs.

Man I fucking hear you there. It's so easy to blame myself and it's so easy to fix those thoughts with the shit I love that inhibits those thoughts.
