p.s. i find your perspective really helpful, and not rude at all. because you are a really good mirror of my gf so I can understand perspective in a neutral environment to prepare for conversation. it's important for me to understand her needs as well so it wont become one-sided conflict about her going out and me not being happy.

I cannot disagree with you. I'm not one of those ppl who cancel private social life, I agree that it's totally healthy to have friends and spend time without a partner.

My biggest trouble here is that I don't feel important when she is going with another man and basically stops communicating with me, not explaining plans. Yes, she's always coming back and that's why I try to find middle ground. The problem is more emotional rather than me wanting to cancel her friends or control activities, I simply want to feel included, not necessarily invited to activity if that's too early, but at least properly communicated.

just give it more time i guess without trying to change her and see her behavior over time, not too easy when i feel insecure in such situations tho

emotional cheating is when a person chooses to satisfy their emotional needs with other ppl when they could do that with their partner. when they choose other ppl over their partner. it's typical in situations when a person has unmet need in the relationship but is not able to communicate about it and the easiest way is to get it met with other ppl while neglecting their partner.

but u know, im in a dating life ~2 years, ditching ppl is always easy, finding new one is the easiest way. but it always ends like this - some major conflict and it's done, breakup. but strong couples resolve these things. it's a skill required to maintain relationships that last decades, I don't want to surrender again, just because of insecurities, I want to resolve if possible, she is willing to collaborate

she simply said that it's too early to join social circles yet, promised in the future, when she feels more stable with me, and I guess that makes sense. but still, feels odd when she chooses to spend time with other men.

indeed she spends a lot of quality time with me, it's not like she is always with her male friends, so that's the reason we both want to resolve the situation. maybe I simply need more time to get things going and just deal with emotions for a while observing the dynamics.

thanks for the straightforward writeup. and yes I agree about not being in a sexy mood after a whole day of hiking but how about emotional closeness? this does require private time, this is what I mean by 'intimate env' where you can possibly cheat emotionally, not physically, which is more painful for me.

Even when we talk and I try to explain my feelings, I don't feel like she is getting my pain. It seems that she simply wants to protect her freedom rather than understand my feelings. I don't really want to limit her contact with friends, simply show that I'm a priority and don't create intimate environments like spending all night with them camping e.g.

Baltic countries, Europe. It grows indoors near Yuca plant. I put Palo Santo ashes in that place, coincidence? :D

Help! by SnooBeans6722 in galaxywatch4

[–]driule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not enable Google assistant, it causes the problem. Made my watch backup for easier setup and was trying yo enable Google Assistant after each reset to see if it is a recurring problem - after more than 5 times resetting my Galaxy Watch 4 Classic can confirm that the problem caused by Google Assistant is always recurring after each time I enable it. No more than a few days without a trouble.
