I met this guy on tinder and we got talk and liked each other, we finally decided to see and for a while he wanted to be around me all the time and he wants to cook for me and all, we went grocery shopping together and he even slept at my place but we were not an item (neither did we get intimate) I told him I want to get to know him and not rush into anything and he agreed too. So there was this day I needed to get shoes and he said he wants to go with me and when we got to the shop I picked the two shoes I wanted and he paid and I asked asked if he was ok cause I notice he was a bit different and then we got back home he was mad about the fact that I made him pay for the shoes. I specifically told him I don’t want you to pay yet you went ahead to pay and now you are blaming me? I got so mad cause he was being manipulative but we settled it that night. It became an issue over and over again, he complained of how expensive the shoes are and how he is now broke, so I I decided to cook and invite him to eat since he is broke, but I got tired of him bringing it up so I told him after a long week or two of bringing it up that he should give me his details and I would send the money, he threw his card on my face (landed on my eyes) that I should send the money, I told took his details and I told him to get out and of my house and he was begging but I had to be calm cause he was being violent before he started begging and I was scared, I faked setting with him so I wouldn’t be beat up and we was all lovey dovey before he left my place and then he called days later to have conversations with me and I told him this can’t work cause he is a bit violent and disrespectful with words and then he said “shut the f**k up you dumb bitch* I ended the call and blocked him everywhere, he reached out not long ago that I should pay for the shoes and less I forget I have him on video saying I shouldn’t pay for the shoes that they are gifts before we had the fight.

I think we fall in love with someone we want to connect with

Feel like I'm losing her! She just stays at home all day doing nothing saying she is protecting her baby!

My other sisters were active social, and hiking till Thier due date and she just got pregnant a few weeks ago!

I've also found myself struggling to reconcile his assurances that I am the best thing and that he's never cheated with certain behaviors that have given me cause for concern. The recent discovery of a text where he communicated with an escort has left me feeling deeply unsettled and uncertain about the foundation of trust in our relationship.

I value the honesty and transparency that are essential for a healthy and fulfilling relationship. His statement that he loves me contrasts with the conflicting signals I've encountered, and it has left me feeling conflicted and unsure about the future of our relationship.

I believe that addressing these concerns openly and honestly can help us gain clarity and determine the best path forward. I care deeply about our relationship and want to work through any challenges together, provided that we can establish mutual trust and understanding. It's important to me that we can have an open and genuine conversation about these matters.

we talked about having a kid together - with his involvement or not

He recently deleted his call logs which he hasn’t done before. In the past he would delete messages with this girl and the only reason I saw the one is because she messaged him back while he was with me and he was driving so he didn’t have the chance to delete it. He has her blocked on everything but I find it suspicious he is deleting his calls and texts unless he has something to hide.

What do y'all think are the best things about having a bestfriend that's the opposite of your gender? like the pros and cons (specifically).
If you don't have one, do you think you'll want one? why
(pls be honest and answer)

I’ve been living with my fiancé and his grandma for about 7 months now. Lately she has been getting even sicker (she’s on oxygen 24/7) so that also contributes to her having some breathing issues as well. It’s been a few days since she’s been back home from the hospital since her last visit not too long ago. Everything has been turned upside down!

No drama but everything is about her. I work full time M-F get home at 6pm so majority of my time is there since he doesn’t work but get $ monthly. She was already dependent on him but now it’s worse! He has to feed her, and walk her to the bathroom, clean up after her and clean the house all the time.

NYE was the first time in days we’ve spent more than 1 hr together.. IN THE SAME DAMN HOUSE!!! I’ve been asking him for months for dates, more than 2hrs of quality time, to get away from the house since his grandma is home ALLL the time!! We have no privacy and no peace and quiet at all cause he’s always chasing after her. Anytime we leave the house together it’s pretty much for her benefit not for a good time.

I don’t want to sound selfish but I’ve been helping him before her health declined but it makes me not want to help since there hasn’t been any balance in our relationship. It’s all about her and did I forget to add we’ve only slept in the same bed 5 times the whole 7 months I’ve been here.
I explain to him I want things to change that I want to go out and do things but I get an okay and nothing changes.

We had plans to spend the night at a hotel for NYE but had to cancel cause she need him on the hour by the hour 🙄. Our sex is always good but I’m checked out because if you can find time to have sex with me you can set aside more than an hour of your time!

We had a pregnancy scare but I’m thankful I’m not pregnant because I’d honestly leave this house. Myself nor my baby will sit there and be on the back burner. Not for no no one!!

!!! please no judgement!!

This question is only for people who DONT consider themselves overweight
