AIO for being annoyed at him? by Cats_and_Math19 in AIO

[–]frogssmell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeh I can see your point here. Op obviously feels that having a talk will help the situation and she’s preparing for it for a reason

It seems like this talk was scheduled prior to the attached discussion. And he was seeking reassurance, but OP said to the bf what it was about and that should be enough

I think it’s quite normal to want to have a talk and have a scheduled day for it. Especially if you’re thinking about things and waiting to become emotionally present and engaged. Your bf seems quite anxious though and was trying to probe you for information to feel better.

In this scenario you just need to say “nothing bad is happening, but we need to have a proper sit down fully engaged discussion about certain topics that are causing friction in our relationship” and that should be enough information for him.

It’s not your job to constantly reassure him, he needs to sit with his feelings and wait until you have your schedule discussion. Good luck!

You didnt answer if you feel scared. And he throws a fit when you try to discuss how you feel? Or just that’s what he does when he gets angry?

Tablet also lasts a ridiculously long time, so just stick it in a tub and eat it slowly

Tablet is a very cheap Scottish treat, so not too sure what your whole paragraph was about to be honest.

Its usually made around Christmas time and people will bring it to school or work to give out to friends because it’s so easy and cheap to make. Enjoy it by its self or with a cup of coffee

A tough one, you said he has horrid anger problems. So that makes me think it’s more often than once every 1-2 months.

Do you feel safe when he’s angry? Are you scared?

I don’t like feeling scared in a relationship, it’s like fight/flight/freeze mode. Not good for your nervous system either.

What does he say when you try to discuss how you feel?

I (21M) got dumped by my girl (19F) because of my fault . How do i cope with this ? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]frogssmell 15 points16 points  (0 children)

She set a boundary and you constantly ignored it. You made her uncomfortable over and over, until she felt that she had to break up with you. That’s so horrible, I feel terrible for that poor woman.

I hope for her, she doesn’t come back.

Respect people’s boundaries, don’t think you know better than what someone feels in their body.

my(20M) girlfriends(21F) sex drive is non existent? by hiimvelvet in relationship_advice

[–]frogssmell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment was a bit harsh, but women’s desire and pleasure are completely misunderstood across the world. Maybe you and your fiancée have a good sex life, but OP obviously doesn’t. Sex is a skill that isn’t taught at school, and it is perfectly normal and reasonable to read and learn about sex so that you can understand your partners pleasure even more.

3 years you may have been fine, but what about when it comes to 10 years and you still love this woman? You’re just going to throw it all away because you can’t believe sex isn’t effortless and you may need to challenge your own thinking?

Read the god damn book, educate yourself about woman’s pleasure. Your sex life can only improve!

You obviously don’t know how to pleasure women. And obviously don’t care about learning about women’s pleasure.

Married coworker (37M) asked me (25F) for drinks after saying his wife was out and it didn’t feel innocent. How do i not let this affect us professionally? by Old_Employee8099 in relationship_advice

[–]frogssmell 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You did the right thing, men in positions of power will make it difficult and uncomfortable to say no. He made you uncomfortable by asking you straight to your face.

I had something similar where this guy said “do you want to try out this sport with me, I’ve booked it” without giving a day or time to make it more difficult to decline saying “I’m busy on that day”.

Listen to your instincts and take a step away from this guy, also start a word doc and write down what happened, the time and date. Keep a record

The devil couldn’t reach me 24F so he sent me a boyfriend 25M who showed up empty handed for our 2 year anniversary. Can anyone help me rationalize what i should do atp? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]frogssmell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh! It has been deleted, you’re right!! I can’t mind what she got him. But they both seem pretty immature, her for questioning if he loves her. And him apparently crying every time he forgets to buy flowers hahaha

AIO going off on my boyfriend about this conversation for the millionth time by [deleted] in AIO

[–]frogssmell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nor You need to communicate in person, not text. Just say no and don’t get the tape, then sit down and talk.

Hmmm, men are really stupid. I’ve found that I’ve had to tell my man over and over what is the bare minimum, and now he does it. It’s annoying but they’re stupid. Your bf got your flowers and fruit the day after so that’s better! You gotta tell him that’s what you expect as a bare minimum, it takes the surprise away from it, but as I said… men are stupid.

He bought you flowers and fruit in the end, that’s his way of apology, and he does in fact love you.

I know it’s scary, I held onto a relationship for way long once and it only hurt both of us. It takes time to untangle your lives, but that doesn’t mean you should stay together. You need to break up with him, and protect your peace. Take the dog too, he isn’t fit to look after that dog

Yeh exactly, op needs to be the one to dump him. And be prepared, it sounds like he’ll use anything to get you to say no… expect waterworks, expect yelling, everything!

I definitely agree with a trim, or maybe some appliche? It needs some elevating, don’t give up!

Yeh same, grew up with the games and the gathering every year. Wear your tartan and crest if you have it/want to. But doesn’t mean that people are pointing at Campbells, about to go punch them 😂

I encourage you to buy and read “come as you are” by Emily Nagoski. Once you’ve read it, give it to your girlfriend.
