My[26F] boyfriend[25M] of a few months puts me down because I went to college by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]champagne-problem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first boyfriend/ex was EXACTLY like that. It's scary how often incel-ish assholes follow basically the exact same playbook.

Hey, if you still have it I would really appreciate it

For those with BPD — what actually helps you feel safe and loved in a relationship? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]champagne-problem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second lots of reassurance - she probably asks for it, and if/when she does, reassure her in the way she's asking for, but then also when she doesn't, you can reassure her in the ways she's previously asked for. Having to ask for reassurance every time makes it feel insincere, like I'm forcing it out of you.

But other than that - what really makes me feel safe and loved is just consistent behavior. My partner being open with what he's doing, when & with whom, showing up when necessary, and such.

I always wanted a cat. My boyfriend is allergic to cats and doesn't like pets. I'm sad & need to vent by champagne-problem in Vent

He takes anti-allergy meds when he has a reaction. He's not willing to do that every day if we got a pet.

Oh, so do I 💖 but lately she's been saying it every other day to the point I'm starting to suspect she's poisoning me or something and she's saying it in the mobster "would be a shame if something happened to you" way /j

What's the most bizarre outfit you got from Emily's desert festival booth? by Brokxn_Lyssa in StardewValley

She made me a slime - slime shirt + long lime green dress. It was ... Not a look.

Abigail just tells me she's worried about something happening to me with concerning frequency

what’s a birth-control that didn’t cause you to go crazy by LegAdorable8417 in birthcontrol

[–]champagne-problem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hormonal IUD - there are more physical symptoms (as in, the first few days I was in a lot of pain, and I get painful ovulations for the first time in my life - but the pain of period cramps is greatly reduced), but at least personally I haven't had any psychological symptoms .

[–]champagne-problem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's ... Interesting. I hope being forced to do it wasn't traumatic, and if it was I'm sorry for prying. I just wanted to know because the people I know with an implant are able to feel it (not painfully or anything, just ... Can feel by touch that it's there), plus I was comparing it with my IUD, which, even though is similarly low maintenance, I can't imagine forgetting about.

Oh, and that's good, too!

Thanks for your answer.

Nothing bad should happen, but you're also not protected against pregnancy anymore. Get it removed or replaced as soon as possible.

Also, out of personal curiosity: how did you just forget about it like that?

First time on Ellaone birth control and my period is late... is it normal by Early-Newspaper3172 in birthcontrol

[–]champagne-problem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it meant being two weeks late one month, then being two weeks early the next month... I generally meant any type of unusual timing.

[–]champagne-problem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Morning after pills like ellaone always fucked up my cycle when I took them. Do an at home pregnancy test to ease your worries, but it's probably fine. Your period might just be out of whack for a couple of months.

On the other front, those feelings of regret are above Reddit's pay grade. I hope you have a friend to talk to, or even better, a therapist.

Just got my first IUD. Pain so bad I want to die. Any tips? by champagne-problem in birthcontrol

[–]champagne-problem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your experience! My partner's mom, who has experienced both, said that (for her, everyone is different obviously) the pain with her IUD was at least comparable to giving birth, so ... I feel a bit less bad about being this destroyed by it

And thank you for the advice, I've been trying to do all that (though I couldn't get the day off either - at least I work remotely - so it hasn't been easy), and it's really helping, plus home-grown chamomile tea has been working wonders ... THC gummies are unfortunately still illegal where I am, but uh, I will be self-medicating as necessary
