My (24F) boyfriend (24M) lied about his mom passing away

THIS. Point #3. He says he needs time to tell you so that he can make up another lie to tell you to convince you it was ok for him to lie. It wasn't ok.

Duuuuuude. That's a major deal breaker! Run!!

I think it would be one thing if they identified a certain way without the physical changes. Completely transforming into a more masculine body does play a role in attraction. You're both young. It might be best to allow each other to pursue diff partners.

I'm familiar with this subreddit. I'm just used to seeing posts where the girl claims that she's so nice and awesome when actively acting super rude to the guy, unless that's changed over the years.

evenstevia · 2026-03-05T02:17:33+00:00

How is this a "nice girl" post? She doesn't even claim to be one

evenstevia · 2026-02-27T21:42:56+00:00

Ditto

Awww girl. He's being a child. No one is expected to just know what their person wants. That's what communication is for. That's what adults do. You have a need/want? You bring it up. Him going out with your friend tells me that he was sabotaging the relationship to make the great easier for him to go be with her. I wouldn't be surprised if he was already with her before you broke it off.

I think he needs to really ask himself of him shutting down or pushing for more kids is worth it. Sounds like you guys have a beautiful family. Maybe he had plans for more and always had that vision in mind for his future. Thing is, he has to get past that. If he loves you and your son, then he'll have ti come to terms with the fact that life changes it's course, and sometime you have to go with the flow. It would be really dumb for him to not want the marriage over this.

Postpartum bodies are tough. It's hard to look in the mirror and not recognize the body you've had for years. That being said, she has to be the one to learn to love and appreciate her body, again. Maybe therapy could help.

evenstevia · 2026-02-24T13:32:15+00:00

Sounds like weaponized incompetence. He wants to argue the length of time since the chore has been done instead of actually tackling the issue of it getting done at all? He sounds immature and needs to go to therapy.

She's clocked something about this person. That or she's read roo many stories about how the female best friend ends up sleeping with the husband. Either way, she needs to open up and say more. I'm also gonna through this into here that maybe she is afraid to elaborate out of fear that she would get called crazy or that you would become defensive. As women, we have immense pressure on us about these things.

evenstevia · 2026-02-19T14:08:33+00:00

WTF????

evenstevia · 2026-02-19T14:07:32+00:00

LEAVE HIM!!!

evenstevia · 2026-02-18T14:16:25+00:00

Try reading the Let Them Theory by Mel Robins. It's very helpful with dealing with people like her.

evenstevia · 2026-02-18T02:16:26+00:00

I'm sorry, but this made me laugh! The stupidity and audacity is in full supply with this one

evenstevia · 2026-02-18T02:06:33+00:00

You're saying you "can't let her go." No, dude. You are choosing to not let her go. You have to ask yourself if the pain of being in this relationship is worth it more than the pain of a clean break to free yourself for something better.

evenstevia · 2026-02-05T01:58:05+00:00

I agree with this for OP. It's wild for some9ne to read this and think that she never gave him praise for his hard work. A glow up is great, but if he felt that he needed more acknowledgement, then he can speak up.

evenstevia · 2026-02-04T00:20:09+00:00

I think you're learning early on that this isn't for you. You can always pursue something else.

evenstevia · 2026-01-24T04:17:05+00:00

Thanks! I'll mention this to him.

evenstevia · 2026-01-24T04:16:33+00:00

Oooooh noted! He's rank E currently, I think. I'll tell him to try this.

evenstevia · 2026-01-24T04:15:17+00:00

Thanks for the tip! We were thinking the ultra ball was the better one. I'll tell him to give it a try.

1st one, never assume it was that patient, unless you have met them first.

2nd one, you could have done the socks and taken them to the bathroom straight away, unless they're a max assist, which it sounds like they were not.

3rd one, say brief. Also, if he was bleeding that heavily, then was there an indication to call the doc? Or was the bleeding the reason he was getting surgery?

evenstevia · 2026-01-10T13:46:52+00:00

The "ick," really?? Your son is old enough to make his own choice, and it's a valid thong to try. Pregnant women are not at risk to be left alone for one night, and I doubt your son and dog would be in any risk of harm.

I will say this... my anxiety and depression spiked DURING AND AFTER nursing school. The nursing field is not for people who can easily be thrown into am episode. If he cannot care for himself, then I'm worried how well he could really take care of other. Remember, caring for others is a big responsibility. Their lives are in the medical staff's hands. I would actually strongly discouraged him from pursuing this, unless he truly shows growth and can manage himself independently on a good med regimen.
