hi everyone, i’ve been with my boyfriend for 10 years. everything was great in the beginning and now everything is going down hill. i’ve gained so much weight being with him, we don’t do anything anymore. we used to go out on dates, we used to go on adventures, we used to have fun and now everything, for me anyway, feels like a chore. he hangs out with his friends and beer more than he does me. and when we do hangout, it’s always arguing. arguing because he chooses his friends and beer over me. arguing because i can’t look through his phone but he can look at mine. in the past when i did snoop through it he has screen shot girls pictures on his phone, liked a bunch of girls pictures, and DMed a few telling them they are gorgeous. going through all that made me dim my light, i don’t feel happy anymore, let alone feel pretty at all. he will tell me that i look “gorgeous” but knowing he had easily called other girls “gorgeous” when dating me is disrespectful and disgusting to me. according to him he doesn’t do that anymore, but when i ask him to see his phone it’s a no. i assume he still does but doesn’t want to tell me to start an argument. I don't know, i’m not happy anymore and it makes me so sick that my life has become this. i also had stopped hanging out with my friends so i can spend all my time with him and i hate it. i tried reaching out to my friends and they ignore me. i know a lot of them have kids and their own family to take care of but it still makes me sad. God, please help me.

Calm down and take it step by step. Soon, you'll find joy in the process of becoming a better version of yourself, even surpassing your previous self. Despite uncertainties about the future, it's important to work on improving yourself, starting with small things like developing a healthy mindset and disciplined activities. When approaching your husband with a request ( to see his phone) be strategic rather than direct, avoiding manipulation. Remember that life is like a war, and creativity, not deceit, should guide your actions. Instead of seeing the situation as negative, view it as an opportunity for personal growth. Start small, stay disciplined, and bigger accomplishments will follow. Prioritize self-improvement and then work on your relationship slowly. You have immense potential, and I believe in you. Don't be afraid or apologetic, take action now. You've got this! :)
This is the truth of most women. Women get bored, get insecure and then want to find new attention from other men.
i want his attention. not anyone else’s. i just want to have fun with life and life with him is not fun. he chooses his friends and beer over me. that’s not fun at all
It’s not fun for YOU… but it is for him.
Why do you meed to rely on HIS attention to be happy?
if choosing his friends and beer over his wife is fun for him then why is he with me? i understand friends are important, but let me tell you that he drinks and hangout with his friends everyday. he will call me when he’s drunk and ready to go home when he calls me to hangout.
why is it so hard to go on a date? to go out for a walk in the park across the street from his house? to go to the beach and hangout? to go to a movie? it’s hard for him, he enjoys getting drunk, he enjoys not seeing me happy. we don’t do ANYTHING because he would much rather spend money on beer. he doesn’t drink 1,2,3 beers? he drinks 12 plus A NIGHT.
Why do you believe that he has to dedicate his existence to you or else shouldn’t be with you?
Does he provide? Does he protect? Does he support? He is with you because he loves you, that doesn’t and shouldn’t mean he has to give up his existence.
If he is drinking everyday… that is alcoholism.
It is a different issue.
he says he loves me, but i doubt it. i have a question, why won’t he let me look through his phone but he looks through mine?
Why do you need too?
because he used to save pictures of bikini girls on his phone. i don’t trust him
Seriously… So what you’re saying is you’re controlling and abusive because YOU have low self-esteem
