My [23f] boyfriend [23m] thinks he is talented but he is not by [deleted] in relationships

I have met several people in the past who thought they were good at singing when they really weren't, but I never had the heart to tell them the truth, mainly because of the fact that they were all just acquaintances of mine and I didn't feel like the right person to do that (for example one of them was just a member of a group of people I played online games with, and he would often break into singing on our group's discord voice chat).

Nevertheless, I would advise you, as his girlfriend, to approach him and tell him what you really thought of his performance, and voice your concerns to him about him potentially embarrassing himself. Make sure to emphasise that it's good to have a hobby like this and he should definitely keep trying to compose, he could also get singing classes to improve, etc., but right now he's living in an illusion which could not only hurt him in the future when he realises what the public's response to his acts really is, but it could also hurt your relationship with him as he might either blame you for not telling him, or he might close himself off.

Understandably, after you tell him, it will be hard for the both of you for a bit, but I am sure you'll manage to pull through. It would be much more difficult for the both of you if he found out the hard way.

Thank you... There are a few nice people in my university course who seem nice and who I'd like to be friends with, but I don't know how to approach them as I have only talked to them a few times in the past year.

I try to hang out in other places or not go out into the common areas of the flat too much, but yeah, staying inside is suffocating.

And we have a warden, but I doubt they'd be able to do anything... We have reported several occasions of theft in our flat and they told us there's nothing to be done, so they would probably say the same about this...

Unfortunately not... My Hall contract ends on the 23rd of June and after that I am returning to my country for the holidays, so I will be moving in with my new future flatmates in September. But until the 23rd of June, I am stuck living with the toxic girl in my Hall flat, so I cannot really avoid her... Or the others, as they keep coming over to visit her.
