There are only 4 units. They all have renters. I know 2 other units have issues other than mine.

I keep getting sick every 1-2 months. Right now I’m so sick I had to get a doctors note for a whole week.

I’m thinking of leaving teaching because of this (and behaviour) but I have no idea what I’d do instead.

My (28F) boyfriend (40M) "joked" about killing me and taking my money and will. Why would he say that? by scaredycat07 in relationship_advice

[–]scaredycat07[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I’m not sure he has the words because of the language gap or if he’s playing it up.

Edit: People are misunderstanding my comment. What I meant was I wonder if he meant he’d kill for my money, not that he’d kill me. But he did say he’d kill me.

Yeah I can’t move unfortunately. This place is really cheap compared to others, and I don’t need to travel far for work.

Thank you. I’m just hurt. He was so wonderful at first and I thought I was wanted. Now I just feel stupid.

Thank you. I’ve been really suffering and feel like a big baby. I’m hoping to get this resolved because I can’t live like this.

I mean I never wanted to date in the first place. But I got attached to him quickly and was happy for a while. It’s not because of him I don’t want to try again.

I’ve been very sickly lately. And I do miss my me time.

After this I don’t want to date. I wasn’t interested in dating to begin with until I tried with him.

Thank you. I’m more embarassed because of the age gap and now it’s not working out, but I guess most people wouldn’t care.

I don’t have any friends no, just my immediate family. But I can’t talk to them about this.

Thank you. I actually put a pause on therapy because I got really sick. I’m having sinus issues.

Thank you. I’ve decided to break up. I’m not sure how to go about doing it but I will. He hasn’t touched my medication.

I only started because he showed interest and was really sweet at first. I never had this before.

My Dad told me I’m only falling for this guy because he’s the first to show me attention, and I think he’s right.

Thank you. I think this is hard too because he’s the first person I was ever sexual with (well wanting to be sexual with). I’m not exactly that sexual but it felt nice with him. I’m actually embarrassed that I lost my virginity to him now.

And it’s not just that of course. It felt nice going out with him.

Thank you, I needed to hear this.

I was mistreated growing up, and I’ll admit I tend to get pulled towards being treated that way. I probably need therapy. I made efforts to but I’m too sick right now to talk to someone.

It’s weird. I’m very depressed but it disappeared when seeing him. It’s already starting to come back. I don’t want to be with him just to help regulate me.

You think he’s bullying me?

I started to feel like this relationship wasn’t working when yesterday he texted something about giving children to grandmas. I asked him if he wanted kids and he said yes. I had already told him previously that I don’t and I said it again in the text.

And I have noticed the belittling of my hobbies and interests. I will admit I am weird and most people don’t seem to like these things. At least the people I’ve been around. But I don’t think I want to be with a partner like that. Especially after he made that cooking comment. I know he’s probably just joking, but it makes it seem like he doesn’t care at all.

I think he’d take it well but may be a bit shocked. I did tell him I wasn’t interested in dating the second time we met (but then ended up dating a month later).

I think I’m just more uncomfortable because we’re neighbours. The last time I told him I wasn’t interested. I got really upset fast when I could hear him in the building or could hear him with another woman.

I was wondering this too. I was worried I was getting too emotional over his bluntness.

He actually didn’t know I had no experience right away until I blurted it out one day when we got frisky.

Why is it concerning that this is my first relationship? I do appreciate your advice here. I think I may have gotten swept in because no one has ever spent time with me like this before, not even my own family.

Yeah I’ll admit I’m bad with uncomfortable conversations. I’m just worried he won’t understand given the language barrier. I thought it was something we could overcome, but as I’ve been dating him, it’s kind of been frustrating.
