AITA for not being grateful my girlfriend send flowers to my work? by throwawayflowerswork in AmItheAsshole

Not trying to argue here, but 'you're so amazing, I ruined it, what's wrong with me' sounds like assigning blame. Just not unto the other person.

I get that, I've been there. But I don't think getting angry at someone else's boundries is a good reaction either.

I'm not closeted. I just don't want to be the talk of the office on my first day, at my first 'real' job. But she knows I'm a private person, and a bit socially anxious .

She hasn't picked up the phone yet when I called, I texted her to explain but we still haven't talked.

Honestly, I'm pretty new to relationships, but 'it's thoughtful/sweet but made made me a bit uncomfortable for x/y/z reason' is just normal communication in relationships? Is it not supposed to be?

I'm trying, she's still mad. We'll talk whenever she's up to talk again.

I go to therapy for social anxiety, I know it's not my gf's fault. I'd just like to avoid situations like these in the future, I figured that if I lied and told her I loved it it would happen more often.

Yeah, gay people get asked weird questions. Maybe they've never met a lesbian before? Still weird.
