this is a living creature, if it's not being taken care of properly in such an obvious way then of course people are going to say something. Why would you be opposed to that?

woah, that was scary to read. All I'm going to say is that regardless of the situation you should not be okay with someone you trust calling you names and swearing at you. If this is how he handles arguments I would seriously question the relationship. I'm sorry he's left you feeling so insecure. I know if I suddenly didn't hear from my bf for a few days I would be worried/upset too.

Though in this text conversation he does really make you sound like the bad guy, which is unfair. He's completely ignoring your feelings and the issue you're trying to discuss. Life gets busy and stressful sometimes, it doesn't mean you have to ignore your partner. Busy life is no excuse and if he can't handle juggling both a relationship and school he should end the relationship instead of painting you to be the one in the wrong for wanting a simple update everyday. Geez. You deserve better than this. He's mean.

i just saw them live this past wednesday for the Mylo Xyloto tour, and i was so happy because they played In My Place which was the first song i ever heard by them so it was very special for me. There was also an acoustic version of Warning sign, it was beautiful.

Just reading this made me feel so sad and infuriated for you. You do not deserve to be spoken to you that way. Would you put up with that if a friend was calling you stupid? A coworker? I would hope not, so why take that from your boyfriend? Also, him shutting down when you try to tell him your feelings is so disrespectful. This is very unhealthy behaviour in a relationship and he is emotionally abusing you. I generally don't like to tell people to leave their SO on this subreddit, but really, he sounds like an awful and insecure person. Him calling you dumb or retarded blows my mind. That should be a zero tolerance thing, even if he is "just joking", which is called gaslighting by the way I'd recommend looking it up. Sounds like he's also got some woman hating behaviour going on, why would you want to be with someone that doesn't even respect your gender? Just give it to him straight and if he doesn't realize he's seriously out of line asap, it would be in your best interest to leave for the summer without him. You deserve to be respected, and there are lots of other men out there that will not treat you badly like your bf does.

ahaha yeah...wow, it just keeps getting worse.

Is this really something at the top of our fight for equal rights list? This seems pretty silly to me. Maybe it's just cause i live in a colder climate, but when would that be appropriate? Is this so women can go topless at the beach? Or run outside topless? Cause that seems pretty stupid. Who wants those flopping around when you're trying to exersize? And reading into it further, this whole "movement" is being run by a man named Rael. Isn't that a little weird?

How about we get equal pay first then parade around topless to celebrate.

What do you say to her when she gets upset like this? Because it sounds like she's fishing for compliments and attention, and maybe you need to give less gas to her fire (ie don't give her that attention so she realizes it's not actually the end of the world).

Her behaviour is really self destructive, everyone makes mistakes and no one can be perfect. A 3.8 gpa is freaking amazing and something she should be really proud of. If that upsets her imagine what would happen if she failed something. She should honestly talk to a school councelor, they might be able to help her put it into perspective.

I met my boyfriend in our first year of university. We were both chem majors so we had a lot of classes together. For our computer science class there was also a lab component where we sat next to each other. He would always sit in my seat, which annoyed me haha. One day, I looked over at this computer screen and saw him reading something about sigur ros. I'd never heard of them before but thought it sounded like a cool musical concept, so we had a chat about that. We hung out a few times as the semester progressed and just clicked. He ended up giving me that sigur ros cd as a present when we started dating (it was around christmas), it was so thoughtful. We've been together for over 2 years now and it's the best.

And it is completely understandable to want to withdraw from that kind of situation. It's kind of like getting to a point in a relationship where you can no longer take a partners depression. Supporting someone who confuses/hurts you is really hard to do for a long time. Everyone has a point where they have to draw a line for what they can and cannot tolerate. Seems like you've found or are getting close to yours, and there's nothing wrong with that. Honestly there's not really anything you can do to help her. If anything she should consult her doctor again. I know my symptoms got worse once i went on hormonal birthcontrol, though have gotten better over time. Maybe it's not right for her body.

feltheknightskye · 2 months

i guess that's true, but I more meant it in a way that tantrum sounds very immature, like she's being childish, which i don't think is a fair description. But maybe that's just due to my interpretation of the word.

feltheknightskye · 2 months

thank you. I think it's very obvious when the OP uses the term "tantrums" to describe his gfs behaviour that he is not really understanding the affects of PMDD and i actually find it pretty disrespectful.

Dave_the_Chemist · 2 months

She's with you now, that's all that matters. She loves you, not him. You can not change anything that's already happened, so either move on or let her be with someone else who wont focus on this. You need to stop torturing yourself with mental images from your imagination.

And don't you dare make her regret her past or her first time.

hmm, well I was like your gf for a while in my relationship. Do you find that while you're together you're personally focusing on the saying goodbye part and the places you need to go? I know that the thing that frustrated me was that I just needed more quality time together without my SO focused on the other things he would have to be doing in the near future. I needed him to be in the moment with me, focusing on us even if it was just for a short time. I hope that makes sense haha.

If you're not doing this already, it may help to let her know in advance when you have to be leaving. For example, at the beginning of the conversation say your next class is in 15min or something of the sort. It will make your goodbyes not feel so abrupt to her.

My parents have always been somewhat like yours are, and although it was annoying I'm thankful for that. There was no way in hell they would have let me go on a trip alone with my bf at age 18 who i'd only been dating for 4 months. It's actually helped me to respect myself a lot. I'm also like you, I never break rules or disobey. I think it's great that you asked them and were honest. That's how you gain their trust and respect, and how they can see you're becoming a mature adult.

My bf and I started dating when we were your age, and he was more used to the laid back parenting approach that your bf seems to have. You need to tell your boyfriend to respect you and your parents decisions. It's mean of him to pressure you into doing something you're uncomfortable with (ie disobeying your parents) and he shouldn't put you in the middle. If this relationship is the real deal you guys have plenty of time in the future to spend nights together and go on trips. Waiting sucks, but not as much as getting kicked out of your house.

Plus who knows, your parents might give it the okay! :)

I'm not sure if someone's already mentioned this in another comment, but I'm just curious if you're willing to trying things other than sex, or if you're saving everything sexual for marriage? There's lots of other intimate things you could do with a lady if you weren't comfortable with sex. For me, the physical aspects of a relationship are huge. Not just penis in vagina sex, but touching, kissing, all that jazz. I'm sure if you were comfortable with oral or fingering it would open a lot more doors in the relationship area. I think your values are very admirable, but as many other comments have said most people don't like to wait until marriage because sex is a big part of compatability. As a woman, I know it is a huge step and an amazing thing to be comfortable enough with someone to let them be inside you. It's an emotional thing for me more than just the physical act and I would have a hard time being in a serious relationship without that.

But either way, I'm sure you will be able to find a girl who has the same values as you :) never compromise on your beliefs and values.

so you're saying it's okay to back out of a previous commitment and not tell your SO about your change of plans even though they're expecting you to show up? That seems pretty rude to me.

This isn't about an evening apart, there's nothing wrong with spending time with your own friends. But this is about OP's bf saying he would be there, getting her excited about it, then not showing up or telling her he had decided not to go. That's bad IMO.

WTFeverynameisused · 3 months

i totally agree that it's not the worst thing he could do, but what does that mean? That she should count her blessings and be happy that he's just thoughtless instead of cheating on her? I don't know, it definitly shouldn't turn into a blow up agrument, but it needs to be addressed if it hurt her, and then they can move forward from there.
