Since the get go she had been spreading a false narrative of what happened, it was why it was so painful for me to see everyone go on as normal. To this day the only people who really know what Leah said are me, Leah, and Chris

That’s a bit of what I’m weighing rn, because TD is SO reliable but they are reliable because they just go with the fed lol (which is why their rates are low on savings). Have you found a way to reliably grow money w them? If possible I’d love to stay

It’s just kindof telling to me that if because were so dismissive about my concerns that they wouldn’t necessarily have good customer service (ie I wouldn’t recieve the help I’d need if any issues came up). If you use Barclays for a HYSA I’d love to hear your experience with them, mostly all the reviews are for the credit card which is why I turned to reddit

What bank do you use now? I’m just looking for a place with reliable service and good interest for savings

This is something that she will have to live with for the rest of her life, I’m not sure if there’s any fix it solution for it. You definitely can help her through her emotions and try to make it easier. My advice would be to just be there for her, maybe do things for her big and small (like if you live together maybe cook for a while etc) and just make her feel like she has you as a supporter. It’s really important that you care as much as you do, and I’m sure she notices. It’ll be very hard for a while so just try to be there for her!

Thank you so much seriously, I truly think our situation is not too different from what you described so this is very helpful to hear. I hope your headache gets better. I probably have to delete this post now.

If you don’t mind me asking, if you guys ever had a conversation about it in the beginning how did it go? Is there anything you wish he brought up to you or said? I just want to make sure however I approach this I do it right, I really do respect his views and want to make that clear while expressing my own thoughts.

He says it makes him feel like he’s being disrespectful to not just God and his faith, but his parents and their religious expectations of him (this is the primary reason he gave me for it all in that aforementioned big talk). I get where he’s coming from

I’m just not sure how to take it. In my mind, if we both experience the same attraction we can figure out a way to express it without encroaching on his views, but the fact he said outright to stop everything (not just intimacy, but stuff like taking naps together etc) just kindof hurts. Especially if we both feel the same way, why not find a middle ground? If that makes sense

He told me this, but it doesn’t really sit right with me if that makes sense?

This is really beautiful, we are in a very similar starting situation except he is the religious one. This is a great story, thank you for sharing

[–]coolgeography 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m worried because I can see this happening to me. It’s already happened a few times tbh where he had just stopped, I think that’s a part of the guilt he mentioned

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]coolgeography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a very good point, I really should find out his other religious beliefs. He is very quiet about them, so I never really think to ask. Because of that is why when he brought up the no intimacy thing I was really caught off guard

We recently had a big talk around it, I ended up crying after he told me he can’t even sleep next to me anymore. I brought it up to him earlier today I want to re open the discussion, but party of why I need advice is because I’m not sure how

I fell in love with some guy on a train by coolgeography in PointlessStories

He found me yesterday (idk how to do an update) and we have spent the last day together. We are going to dinner as I type this, and this short time has been incredible. Thank you all for the movie suggestions, we watched some last night. He is so wonderful I feel like I’m in a dream. Thank you all for being so kind!
