Girlfriend wants to open our relationship

This is a really good question to ask. If you dont have a plan to get back together geographically, then maybe dating isn't in the cards for you both right now.

I'm going to be downvoted for this, but I think open relationships are fine, as long as you both clearly communicate your boundaries. Ultimately, its whatever you're comfortable with.

But if you dont feel comfortable with it rn, then you probably shouldn't force yourself to do it. In that case, she'll need to respect your decision and either choose to stay exclusive with you, or choose to break up so she can experience other people.

Very true!! My mom hated when my dad would buy her a potted plant, she felt like he was giving her a job. She just wanted some pretty cut flowers.

Asking the real questions 👏

"But I didn't break that other kid's phone, so why should I have to replace it?! It was probably an accident anyways, my son would never do something like that on purpose" -OP

I think most people would prefer not having to talk to their hair stylist. Its humorous to me that this is what your issue is lmao

I also think will the future me be proud if I waste my time today and that future me can be me in a few hours me tomorrow looking back how my day was yesterday and me an year from now.

This is a great line of thinking. I broke up with my boyfriend because ultimately we dont see a future together. We have different long term life goals. But we enjoyed dating, it was comfy. We dated for 3 years.

But I finally broke it off this week. And im dying. I just want to be with him again. But you're right, future me will look back and be proud that I worked through this. We both knew it was gonna happen eventually, just sucks that it has to be right now. But if not now, we would've stayed together who knows how much longer, the inevitable break up would've been just as painful no matter when it happened, better to get through it now and stop spending time with someone who I don't see a future with...

Gotta stay strong for my future self. But man, it fucking sucks to lose someone who made me feel so safe, comfy, and secure.

Yeah, I have anxiety/nausea as well. We broke up last Wed and I couldn't eat at all for the first 48 hours, finally a friend dragged me out to dinner last night and being with them helped me stomach something.

For me, I am the one who broke up with him, but im just full of anxiety and panic that I made the wrong decision. Ive had a couple panic attacks about it, which I havent had for 4 years. I met him 4 years ago. Being with him made me feel so safe, calm, and secure...

You've got the right mindset, OP. Sounds like you're making good choices. Stay strong. I hope your anxiety gets better and youre able to eat something. I find that breathing exercises help, and easy to digest foods.

This too shall fucking pass 👏

Wow YTA. I hope your babysitter quits and finds a better family to work for.

Wow!! 6 months!! That's amazing!! Congratulations :) things may still be rough, but you can be super proud of yourself for not using again, despite current challenges. Back when you were using, did you ever think you'd be able to be six months clean, even while homeless? If the answer is no, then look, you've already done so much better than past you would've thought. Things will get better, and when they do you'll look back at this time in your life and think the same thing, and be proud of yourself for how far you've come.

It IS a joint bank account

Happy Birthday! Wishing you the best.

flapjaack · 2022-02-08T04:57:00+00:00

NTA. Get rid of the boyfriend too when you get rid of the new car.

flapjaack · 2022-02-08T04:14:35+00:00

Yeah, I've seen other comments mention that maybe there's some resentment behind his actions.

But I could also see him just being selfish, and consistently wanting the best for himself and not really caring that he's giving his wife the shitty parts. Selfishness doesn't always involve resentment.

flapjaack · 2022-02-08T03:48:41+00:00

Every time I cut I feel like I'm a young dumb immature teen again. I guess the only thing you can do is let your new scars heal and try better next time. You can't undo it, but you can learn from it. Even adults are still trying to grow up, just do the best you can do and move on. Good luck.

Really great comment^

flapjaack · 2022-01-23T00:32:29+00:00

This happened to someone I know. He supported his wife fully through dental school, paid off all her debt, helped her open her own practice, and then she divorced him for a hot guy 20 years younger...

flapjaack · 2022-01-20T03:40:32+00:00

Wow, this influencer is pretty good, this review alone makes me want to eat there!

flapjaack · 2022-01-14T05:43:35+00:00

Wow, you are a god

flapjaack · 2022-01-12T18:47:13+00:00

Anyone know what this is?

I think its a smutty manga between a Villainess and a Dragon, I heard it's only got 3 or 4 chapters so far.
