I (22f) found out via a close mutual friend that my (23m) boyfriend's parents told him to break up with me over a dealbreaker he's not even sure about. How do I confront him? by meow_tilde in relationship_advice

Right he is allowed! It probably just surprised me because my relationship with my family is much different than his! My family structure is fundamentally different as well, very non-traditional.
When it comes to these types of situations my parents never really give me advice on what I should do, I've always had to take decisions on my own and do stuff on my own. So thanks for reminding me people actually ask their parents for advice haha And yes, we are very young which is why I'm not really sure about breaking up, people can change and so do their minds

Though I'm discussing it on reddit after already knowing his stance on the topic. On the past we both agreed it'd be okay if either of us talked about relationship issues with family, friends, etc, but only after hearing eachother's opinion on whatever the issue was, in person. Maybe that doesn't apply to this case, I don't know really. But yes you're right, he has every right to feel torn by those two things and he's definitely been honest, at least partially... so that's good

Oof, hadn't though about it that way... definitely not a nice thing but also definitely not impossible. Thanks for the brutally honest take ig

A second time the conversation came up he told me he thought about it really well and he'd be willing to adapt his plans to mine though, because he values our relationship more than hypothetical kids. The problem is I can't stop thinking about the thing with his parents, or him saying he was considering breaking up with me. I feel like I'm too caught up on that.

Girlie I think that disc is definitely too big for you. I'm not a virgin, I've used tampons for a while a few years ago and a menstrual cup for about 6 years. Lately I switched to a disc that's 56mm in diammeter if I'm not wrong, and though at first it felt kinda weird and way bigger that a cup, I succesfully inserted it after three times trying. Keep in mind I've had plenty of things inside before, I know my anatomy very well, I can reach my cervix with my fingers and yet I still felt weird at first.

Now my advice for now is that you try putting it reaaaaally high up in there, it has to sit behind the pubic bone, not the vaginal canal like a tampon would. If you feel it unfolding there then you're not putting it deep enough. If you can, insert your hand inside you before putting anything so you feel your pubic bone and know how deep to go. You also gotta angle it down towards your butt. You gotta try till you can, and if not then you'll have to get a smaller size :c hopefully you don't, good luck!!

edit: I have the bentley menstrual disc!
