Reply to I (M25) have a very privileged life with everything I ever dreamed of, money, girlfriend (f25), travel, and am still mostly unhappy by [deleted]
I hope you can get some good therapy and help heal some of your childhood trauma and depression. Don't feel bad for reaching out for professional help.
Another suggestion would be to get involved in something meaningful to help others. If you have the financial means, you could make a real difference to others and also find a bigger purpose and meaning for yourself. Maybe help some kids who grew up with parents having mental health issues, like you had to, or similar?

Reply to I (24m) have a crazy clingy ex FWB(23f). What's the proper way to get rid of someone like that? I've tried but I always end up feeling guilt by Vofz
>I unblocked her cause I felt guilty
well firstly, take responsibility for your own emotions. You're not helping either of you by being wishy-washy. She's obviously got major problems and using her bc you find her attractive is top notch douche behavior. Since you've got her mom's number, it might be prudent to reach out to her explaining her behavior and that you need to end things with her so be prepared for a meltdown,
After that, tell her in no uncertain terms that its over and to not contact you. If she makes threats, call the appropriate authorities.

Reply to I (27F) broke up with my boyfriend (27M) of 4 years after he said he wasn't ready to live with me. Have I made the right decision? by Ill-Inspector3071
You weren’t throwing away the happy future where you lived together because he didn’t want that, instead you stepped away from more years of things continuing as they were ( Good in person but feeling like mates and with no end in sight as he refused to change things). You did the right thing.

Reply to My boyfriend’s mom only speaks Spanish when I’m around when she can speak English. (I’m 25 f he’s 32 m. Been together almost 3 years) by Idkman4182
If their family usually speaks Spanish in their home, they will continue to do so unless you're specifically in the conversation. That's just how it is.
When I visit my wife's family, it's the same way with everyone speaking Vietnamese even though I only know a small number of words. When they want to include me in the conversation, they switch to English, but they are used to speaking Vietnamese together so they switch back as soon as possible.

How I'm doing that? I already let her know politely many times that I'm not interested in a relationship. What else I can do?

Reply to comment by itsameluigee in My(22F) best friend(22f) won't stand up for me, what do I do? by ahappydementor
It was two people. I thought Tarryn and Cara were aware I didn't like them. I was responding to Cara saying, completely without prompting, that I was an awful person with an awful sense of humor, and made a joke out of it because I was trying to make it less awkward.
It was further than 'not greeting me warmly', it was ignoring me to the point several groups of people noticed, as I actively tried to include them in conversations and they acted as though I didn't exist. I have ALWAYS been civil to them. I expected civility in return. And I expected more out of a friend that I have supported through several incredibly hard situations. If you don't have advice, why are you on an advice forum?

Reply to My (26F) long term partner (27M) avoid one another when I’m going through depressive episodes. by Loyal_to_the_soil
It sounds like you’re aiming at being dependent on him for your emotional quality of life instead of getting a psychologist to help you work through your mental and emotional problems. He’s your life partner, and life partners are not responsible to take care of your mental instabilities, that’s an individual responsibility for you to take care of and handle. Expecting him to stop everything to coddle you is not healthy, in fact it’s quite toxic, and him pulling back emotionally is safe guarding himself from that toxic behavior and preventing your personal problems from becoming his problems. Work on yourself and get the mental health support you need without dragging him into it, because if you don’t he will eventually not see you as a smart investment for the long term future in raising a family with and leave you for someone else that doesn’t have those problems or that is getting the help they need.
He most likely will start listening if you start getting support, but you have to show progress before he’s willing to listen.

Hey, /u/ThrowRAPoloDolo. Unfortunately your submission has been removed:
We do not allow partner's sexual history or "body count"
The replies are always a variation on several comments (telling OP to get over it, "slut shaming" the partner, or insults against OP or the partner)
The posts invite incels and others to post their harmful rhetoric and troll the subreddit, turning the comments into arguments instead of advice for the OP
If you have any questions about this removal, please feel free to send us a modmail.
Please note that removal reason request from anyone else other than OP will not be answered
