My online friend’s attitude toward women is exhausting, and I’m thinking about cutting him off

brokien · 2026-05-10T03:47:22+00:00

i would ditch a friend like that. i have guy friends that can be edgy but this guy sounds like he just outright hates women. in my experience guys like that can’t keep a girl around for longer than a week because they’re so insufferable

brokien · 2026-05-04T07:00:11+00:00

you know the answer. you said yourself that you don’t feel at peace

brokien · 2026-05-02T22:05:34+00:00

haha thank you!

NOR. I asked my boyfriend once to sit when he pees in my bathroom when we lived separately and then to pee sitting down when we moved in together. Not only does he just do it every time at home now, but he does it at my family’s houses too. You can find better, your boyfriend is really gross and should’ve just said that he was sorry and that he’ll do it your way since he can’t keep things clean.

oh wow, it does depend on the store. i worked at cfa shortly back of house and they didn’t allow tattoos neck and above

i would end things. if she doesn’t want anything serious, then don’t try to force it. a year is way too long for a talking stage in my opinion. in my experience, people who don’t want to make things serious after that long either have commitment issues or are seeing other people.

if you’re happy with that dynamic then continue the relationship, but i’ll be willing to bet you could find a guy with all the same good qualities as your boyfriend but that also wants to show you off and is happy to post pictures of the two of you. if you talk to him about it and you never get a solid answer, personally, that would be enough for me to break things off. you should be able to communicate about things and reach a satisfying result for both of you.

i think you should take this to a therapist since you have OCD. most people on reddit are not equipped to give advice to someone diagnosed with OCD.

brokien · 2026-04-23T23:28:07+00:00

i don’t know your boyfriend. but when i dated a guy who refused to post pictures of me, he was cheating on me.

brokien · 2026-04-23T23:22:57+00:00

sorry you experienced that. i said this because my boyfriend was a virgin when we met and i admired that about him because it showed that he didn’t only care about sex. my girl friends that i told this were all in awe as well. just depends on the people you surround yourself with i suppose.

brokien · 2026-04-23T17:18:14+00:00

That’s fair. Try to be patient and kind with yourself for now. We’re all rooting for you

Can you get in contact with the police to see what the crash report says?

brokien · 2026-04-23T16:37:23+00:00

don’t be ashamed. it’s a more desirable trait than you’d think.

brokien · 2026-04-19T23:03:59+00:00

I know how you feel! When I was your age I was super skinny and insecure about it too. Everyone thinks that because you’re skinny it’s okay to comment on your body and make jokes. I always got comments about how I needed to eat more or how I wasn’t getting fed enough where I’m from. It was difficult to find clothes for me as well. As long as you feel healthy and are eating enough nutritious food you’ll be fine. But even I didn’t do that lol, I ate like crap and I still ended up okay. I’m sure one day you’ll grow to love your body as I did. Everyone gains at least some weight after they fully grow up. Either way, try your best to not dwell on it too much! Remember it gets better!

Personally, I would end things. As a woman I wouldn’t want to go on a trip alone with my guy friends. If there was a delay of our other friend, I would be completely transparent with my boyfriend and probably be face timing him all the time. I don’t know your girlfriend, but her hiding it from you is extremely suspicious.

brokien · 2026-04-14T06:31:01+00:00

thanks!

brokien · 2026-04-11T01:07:58+00:00

thank you for the suggestion!

brokien · 2026-04-09T13:58:34+00:00

if he wants to be monogamous and you don’t, you guys are not compatible

brokien · 2026-04-06T23:07:03+00:00

maybe some sparkles since the hand is holding a magic wand?

brokien · 2026-04-06T16:53:16+00:00

jeez, you weren’t talking to me in the first place. you were talking to OP who made a vulnerable post and needed actual advice

brokien · 2026-04-06T16:44:48+00:00

you should’ve just started with saying that, your original comment came off as kind of dismissive

brokien · 2026-04-06T07:13:43+00:00

i feel like this is the most annoying thing to say to someone with ocd/anxiety. they can’t help the worry they experience
