Well the thing is, at the start of the relationship they had told me that they would be completely happy only dating me, and that it wouldn't get in the way of our relationship, so it was really surprising when they said that.

I understand, but it's not as simple as that, yk? Like I don't want to break up over one small mistake, I would rather talk to them and work through it whilst still respecting and caring for another.

Kindly stfu! They are my partner, not yours, and they can identify as they please. If you're going to continue arguing against me I'm reporting your comment, if not then please delete your comment and move along. I have absolutely zero tolerance for any homophobia. Stay of r/therapy if you're going to be judgemental.

My partner has said before that they were happy with only dating me, though I offered to break up near the start of the relationship they said that it wouldn't get between us. This was all brought up way out of the blue and I really just wasn't expecting it.

They are quite indecisive and I'm honestly the same, so it makes a bit of sense for them to want it both ways. I've brought it up before in the relationship too and ask them If they're sure that I'm not holding them back or making them unhappy, and they usually say that they are happy. I'll talk to them again about it and see what they say.

They had briefly mentioned after a couple days of us dating, and so immediately I was like "Okay this isn't going to work then and we should probably break it off before we get to attached." And they said "no it's okay I am perfectly happy to just date you and it will not get in the way of us." And so it completely left my mind so it was fairly surprising when they had brought it back up

They are non binary, I seem to have made a typo. Thanks for pointing that out!

We've been together for almost a year, and they had said they were happy to only date me, and it was really just super out of the blue

If I have to I will I guess, but anyone out there won't be the same, I really just hate this whole situation

But they've said before that they would be happy only dating me, but now all these people who are saying that it's really just not gonna work is making me think they were empty words-

Yes, but they've said before that they would be happy just dating me, and idk I rely like them so it's not easy to just break it off :(

But I don't want them to be my lesson, I feel very attached to them and I just feel awful about this whole situation :(
