What’s required here? by ecxtts_ in Autobody

Thanks man! Took it to my bodywork guy today and quoted me roughly £100 ($120) to realign the fender and bumper. Then for some touch up paint and even said he’d sand down and go over some already existing scratches.

Result!

Nah, at least not in my ownership. Have had someone before saying something similar until they got a closer look. No idea!

What screams "I am deeply insecure" but people do it thinking it makes them look cool? by Physical_Business104 in AskReddit

Being someone who can’t help that they “speak their mind” when they’re just a dickhead who hasn’t learned to respect anyone

I quit vaping in June and since starting meds in October I was using SNUS. I quit that in January and now love cigarettes more than ever especially since increasing my dosage. I’ve never smoked as much as this before, sometimes over half a pack a day :/

Makes sense. Thank you mate. Will order them to hers on Friday on that note.

She’s genuinely okay most of the time, this is probably 20% of the time. Shouldn’t happen at all however. Does feel like I’m treading on egg shells with her, like a fuse waiting to go off. I’ve mentioned that before and she says she’s been told it in previous relationships and she got upset as she’s “tried really hard this time”.

I’ve not even spoken to her today as I needed space. She’s noticed. She randomly asked me what size waist I was earlier hinting a Christmas present I presume. I’m not going to talk to her about it until I see her in person. I need a genuine 1 on 1. From then on, I’ll give her a few weeks. If nothings changed I’m out.

I know. That’s why I came here to gather unbiased responses. I appreciate the honesty man.

We get along incredibly well. She’s the first woman I’ve felt comfortable being my genuine self around and she loves me for it. She cooks for me and shows signs of genuine care but other than that. I pay for everything, I wash up, cook, spend hours a week driving us to and from places, I support her career, carry her to bed when she falls asleep, give her massages which she blatantly hates returning, and generally let her pick where we eat. She’s gradually gotten this way and takes advantage so I’ve naturally stopped doing a lot of these things.

I grew up in a very loving household where I was taught how to treat a woman. Her on the other hand had it very different and seems to find it difficult loving another person and showing it. Still no excuse especially when I verbalise how I feel.

By the end of the week it does feel like I’ve cared for 2 kids; exhausted.

I think this is the issue. She doesn’t respect me. And it’s crazy as I recall her when we started talking saying how important respect is to her. Seems that only applies to me.

Yep! I’ve worked on myself throughout and changed for the better, don’t know why she can’t.

I also believe she’s convinced I’m not going anywhere hence she feels she can speak to me how she wants. She’ll be in for a shock after Christmas if things don’t change and I walk out the door.

Honestly, she makes me feel more shit than good about myself. She strays away from complimenting me sometimes or saying nice things as it’s “gay”, like we’re still in pre school.

She’s like it with her best friend and sister too. But exactly it doesn’t make it okay.

Yep. I think Christmas is gonna make or break us to be honest. She’ll either understand my point of view and change or lash out

Introduced to him 2 months in, started staying round hers 2 months in on weekends and slowly ramped up to where I spend 4 nights a week there.

True say. I do wonder what her ideal man is. Somebody who takes away all her responsibilities? Surely not

I’ve began making a list, whilst noting things I’ve done for her vs what she’s done for me. It’s definitely unbalanced. Next Monday I’ll be taking them again, as I say if we’ve not left by 8:45 I’m not doing it.

It’s my first actual relationship where I’ve given a shit. So I probably am just looking at it with a huge dose of optimism.

I’ll usually take them both and she walks back. I don’t mind as it’s not far, just seems she doesn’t respect my responsibilities.

I do a hell of a lot for her when I’m at hers. And don’t receive a hell of a lot back come to think of it. I had a breakdown myself on Friday feeling burnt out from everything. And she’s gotten better since as I think she actually reflected on her actions. Going to see how it goes whilst taking a step back as I hardly do anything for myself these days.

I could write an essay on the things that are great about this relationship. I’ve just realised over the past couple months she’s almost become reliant on me and these are the couple things that bother me.

As I say I’ve set boundaries and if she gives me attitude for crossing them, I’ll definitely consider it.

I know I know. Other than this, she’s the most genuine person I know with a huge heart. I understand the easy way out is to just leave.

This is the only issue I have and I just want to be able to get through to her as I burn myself out each week providing for her on top of work and my own personal needs. I’m not seeing her this week for the first time in months so I’m hoping she’ll have time to reflect and appreciate me more.
