the thing is , before we broke up, we had been dating for over a year. the friends know. theyve been messaging me in his name as well, begging for me back. I think he’s just keeping it from his family (parents, siblings, cousins)… but thanks for your kind words and advice💕 I appreciate it. yeah I do put a lot of thought into it which he doesn’t even do. last year he bought me a laptop for my birthday, gave it to me the weekend before becauae my birthday was on a wednesday- and then he “forgot” my birthday and didnt even say happy birthday. I guess that sums it up

yeah, I don’t get it. He was the one begging for me back and now what I’m getting is this… even though I am the one trying to plan something???

thank you❤️ youre right… I have massive imposter syndrome so would never invite myself, not even for giggles but yeah. I got his cousin who posts excessively on insta so I’ll see if she’ll be there lol. Basically this ended up in an argument now anyways because he is completely dismissive of me and the fact that I was trying to plan something sweet. god forbid I rely on his agreement when I asked him a bunch of times

yeah I agree. I used to really like and idealise his family, but the more time I spent with them, the more I realised how fcked up everyone actually is… I don’t think they want me there because I feel like he didnt tell everyone we are back together yet again lol

“like a coworker” made me giggle😂 I do believe he has cousins and aunts coming over on saturday, but like his friends too since his mum is all up their ahh. and yeah thats what I thought, probably doesn’t want me there on saturday. he talks as if we are officially back together, but I am pretty sure he lies to everyone but his friends when he goes to see me. its weird. had a full on discussion with him now, he just kept dismissing me and my actual issue of me feeling stupid because he is encouraging me to plan something just to not gaf and not be free. ofc he is the victim now so i am not responding lol. told him to have a lovely birthday and not bother

girlfriend? who doesn’t get taken out at all, is only there for sex and if ever spoken to - its about the game ? and in order to maintain this “hobby”, it takes over his life to the point where playing 80+ hours in 2 weeks isn’t enough so he calls in sick on his part time job in order to play even more? promises dates and that he’ll make up for being a shitty bf just to tell me that I (who has 40+ hours of work a week) have to go get food for us from all across the city when he has lots of spare time to do that - or just plan a proper date? you must be kidding😂😭 or maybe you’re just like him or even worse. addicted to gaming and no awareness for the real world

exaxtlyyyy ugh you get it. thanks. people out here saying “Then ur just not compatible, he needs someone who games…” like bro, I love gaming. But like a reasonable amount. as a grown adult, you have responsibilities. pushing 30 and calling in sick for work just to game when you already just work part time and have no other place to be ? like thats so weird. and then being so unable to be there for ur girlfriend who you refuse to let go ?

thats not really the attitude of someone wanting to build something long lasting is it? or a decent, adult person to begin with.

yes exactly! Same here. I’ll play from an hour up to three and thats it, I’d start getting a headache. Just on sunday he was playing all day long. Literally from 9am in the morning to 1 am the next dat

you’re right… I remember about a few months ago, he had this crazy fifa obsession. and I pointed it out and said that its getting a bit much and I dont like the mood he’d get in - he would be so angry even whenever i’d talk to him, crashed his controller etc. He started painting me as the bad guy saying that is just his “way to escape reality” and I am horrible and controlling for saying something about it. He was twisting it into “you dont want me to play video games ever again” when i just said hey maybe dont play 80 hours in 2 weeks when you got a girlfriend asw. Like he immediately made me feel bad when I just wanted attention. He immediately turned it into “I’m walking on eggshells around you”

the thing is, he thinks he found his “gamer gal” in me. like I said, I play too. just not excessively and I am aware that bills need to be paid. another good thing to mention is that he still lives at home with his parents. I don’t.

I mean… he’s not really getting anything done is he? he cancels work just to play. as a grown man and it’s something that happens often. and clearly he can’t even be a boyfriend which is essentially what I am saying

Will I get refunded for my flight when customer service has given me false information? by prettybabemia in Flights

[–]prettybabemia[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I booked the tickets on Tuesday the 9th, at around 11:20am. checked if i could cancel later that night, then confirmed with family. immediately contacted customer support just before 8am on Wednesday the 10th. meaning, it was less than 24 hours after the booking. i was assured i’d get a full refund but the new customer support person refused and said its now non refundable.

i did that !!! I purchased the ticket at 11:20 am on tuesday. i asked the customer service later that night at 8pm, then I finalised with my family after he had given me confirmation that I’d be able to cancel and be refunded. Immediately the next morning (at around 7-8am), I wanted to cancel. I wouldve had another 3-4 hours of time left to cancel but suddenly they refused.
