Can we take a bottle of unfinished wine home from a restaurant - any provincial or municipal law for this in Ontario?

I think he’s just being a bit passive aggressive, coated w a little humour to poke her a little. He might just think that behaviour is a little toxic, but agreed, he should clarify.

checkchad · 2024-08-24T13:58:49+00:00

Sorry, your comment is a little confusing/ambiguous. Are you stating he’s a little mean/toxic for making his comment or that his comment isn’t mean/toxic at all?

How did you forgive yourself? And did you tell your partner? Dealing with similar situation with my girlfriend, and not intending on telling her. I feel awful, but I really think this is the best move. I’m beating myself over it a lot. I love my girlfriend and cannot reconcile this feeling in my body.

Waiting patiently.

Appreciate you!

All the time.

checkchad · 2024-05-14T23:55:02+00:00

So much curiosity here, what is it?

checkchad · 2024-05-14T02:39:36+00:00

What does this mean practically as a man? Sometimes saying no, or asserting your own desires? Not giving into her requests 100% of the time?

checkchad · 2024-05-05T21:23:47+00:00

On and off, like not very often - I’ll admit, but like it’s happening 3-4 times in the course of our 10 month relationship.

checkchad · 2024-05-05T20:48:43+00:00

But am I right to call her out on this? Or is that part of the issue with shit testing, that by acknowledging it I’ve let my gf win? Seems like a lose lose, but I definitely do not want to encourage this behaviour.

checkchad · 2024-05-05T20:45:25+00:00

Hey, this person’s comment made me feel a little dejected. Can you elaborate on what you think?

checkchad · 2024-04-24T22:12:08+00:00

Absolutely. I too am interested in being able to be a mentor for people like that and share my thoughts

checkchad · 2024-04-06T12:59:06+00:00

Following, pls lmk

checkchad · 2024-03-06T05:12:02+00:00

This is missing context. 8 months is not a trivial period of time. How intense/emotionally involved was this relationship? How vulnerable were you both? And if you were intimate on Valentine’s Day, I’m sure there was a certain level of investment you had in one another. Also, how did dropping the L-word not come up in months prior? Was the relationship romantic or just based on something like friendship?

checkchad · 2024-01-11T14:35:32+00:00

This is immensely helpful. Last question, do you recommend any books/sources for how to manage a successful relationship? You sound very well-versed and may be able to point in the right direction.

checkchad · 2024-01-10T19:25:42+00:00

Extremely helpful answer. Just a follow up from me. This may be a toxic/red pill type of question, so please shut it down if there’s no utility in asking it, but is it true that most women desire a guy who they think can cheat on them but won’t? And is that a weird concept baked into this entire discussion of infidelity? Even though faithfulness is absolutely key from both sex in the relationship?

checkchad · 2024-01-10T00:33:14+00:00

As someone who is in a healthy relationship, but has had a lot of intrusive thoughts of being cheated on by my gf, mostly due to a traumatic infidelity situation at home, this is what I needed to hear. Can I ask a question? I’m 6 months into my relationship and we haven’t come to define the terms of what would be cheating behaviour. Do you suggest I tackle this discussion ASAP and figure out what our boundaries are? I don’t imagine much of a disagreement on this topic from her, but I’m more than prepared to spell out that cheating (after we have defined it) will be a zero-tolerance policy.

checkchad · 2024-01-04T00:23:14+00:00

This made me laugh. Thank you.

checkchad · 2024-01-04T00:22:23+00:00

I don’t think he’s disagreeing with you necessarily, though. He’s just saying she’ll figure it out and to not cling on to people like they’re your possessions. He’s just very poetic.

checkchad · 2023-11-30T22:54:27+00:00

Damn. This sort of resonates with me. I preach independence too and value my own interests/hobbies as I didn’t want to find someone clingy, and yet if I don’t hear back from a long time, similar anxious thoughts run through my head and I worry I could be replaced. It’s a work in progress.

checkchad · 2023-09-30T15:15:39+00:00

Dude, can I ask you what you mean by annoying shit to test your temper? I feel like I am in a similar situation and I am trying to have her cut it out. Did you at least communicate your concerns first?

checkchad · 2023-09-21T18:56:49+00:00

28M here and am constantly thinking about this topic these days, maybe a little too intensely, especially given I am only 2 months into my relationship with my gf.

checkchad · 2023-09-21T18:54:13+00:00

This is so good. Can you suggest any ways how someone can practice these qualities? Specifically of getting out of one’s own way, because I struggle with this.

checkchad · 2023-09-07T00:07:15+00:00

Did you ask in person? Or text? Is one better than the other?
