To my knowledge she has not gone to my home when I am not there. Then again, there is no way to prove she hasn't, either. My stepfather works from home so most of the time when I am in class, he is at home. I guess I could try stopping home before or after class on a few random days.
I am chronically ill. I learned long ago I would need work arounds. My husband is the breadwinner. I found a support ground to vent to. I applied for state disability ability, as soon as I could I applied for social security. This was prior to our marriage. We adopted our child, ironically she has a chronic genetic disorder that mirrors your wife’s.
When I went to social security to change some things, they insisted we apply for benefits for our child. She got a 850 dollar stipend a month. We were able to get a wheelchair van for me. I can use a cane to get to the drivers seat. We used part of my disability to get a housekeeper. While the housekeeper was there we napped. When she was 3 we had her in half day basically a play group. In the winter we used the crock pot. Summer the grill. We made it work.
My daughter was a easy baby. Except IBS, she was not diagnosed with her illness till 12. We went to a geneticist and she got officially diagnosed. We also found out that her illness requires both partners to have the gene.
We have a solid relationship, our daughter is struggling with her chronic invisible disability. She just got approved for assistance. Her fiancé is great. My daughter finally accepted a wheelchair wasn’t a shame it gave her more freedom outside the house. Inside she uses other things. We also got her a service dog at 7. He would sleep next to her belly Or on her lap. She realized the heat helped her stomach to pain. Sometimes she eats in the shower it helps her belly pain.
She had to come to peace with her disability, part of that was a pain management psychologist. She has a live support group. She now has a large service dog that helps with her mobility. We watched Harlow the helper dog and realized as an adult she could become more independent with a larger service dog. I ended up getting a standard poodle, we were able have self train.
It's hot to tell – mostly depends on how mature she has become after those experiences or well…whether she's healthy enough to have realised that relationships like that are toxic and not what a normal person should have to deal with.
I'd guess that there are mainly two options – you will be the good guy who treats her right and she geniuely learns that this is how it should be – or she might have an unhealthy uhhh… way of “missing” the abuse which would be pretty sad.
Can't exactly tell you what's gonna happen but if you like her, just treat her right, show her what a healthy loving relationship is supposed to look like etc. and if she happens to be too broken to see that then there is nothing you could have done different – sometimes you do everything you can but still lose – thats life.
I think I’ll unfollow I’d rather not block at the same time she’ll still follow those accounts but I’d then be worried about posting stuff and her seeing it. But at the same time I shouldn’t really do things with her in mind.
I actually feel I am in a unique position to write about this.
Early last year my partner found out she was pregnant. She was on her last semester of college and we were not in a great place in our relationship. I had always wanted a family but for her it was too early. After we had many lengthy discussions she decided she wanted to get rid of the baby. I was in the same position as your boyfriend and told my partner I support whatever decision she makes and love her no matter what. She had the same hesitations you seem to, not being ready, not having stability in her life (career and financial), etc. We ended up going to an OBGYN and had her scheduled for the week after. I was dying inside trying to find a way to express how I felt but I knew how difficult the decision was and I didn't want to sway her one way or the other. I wanted it to be 100% her decision. I ended up writing her a letter letting her know how I felt and that I will stand by whatever decision she made and that I loved her no matter what but felt I was doing our relationship and myself a disservice by not being 100% honest. The letter wasn't meant to change her mind but just so I could process all that I was feeling. We ended up having a conversation well into the night and ended up not 'getting' anywhere but we at least finally fully understood how the other person felt.
Long story short we ended up keeping the baby and he is almost 5 months old.
This is such a big decision and you should trust your judgement and if you have any reservations or concerns they are valid. I think it would be worth mentioning to your boyfriend what you overheard and just communicate and be honest. It's obviously very tough on you because it's your body and everything going on but it's tough for the partners as well.
In our case, all of my partners reservations were spot on. We definitely struggle financially and her career path was put on hold. It is hot and tough some days and an absolute blessing other days. We are lucky that my job provides enough that my partner can stay home with the baby and we have access to family for support but I know not everyone is as lucky or privileged as we are.
Whatever you decide, I hope you both are able to feel heard and loved and supported. Rooting for you guys!
Interesting word choice. Interacting in a non consensual manner.
“a threat or attempt to inflict offensive physical contact or bodily harm on a person (as by lifting a fist in a threatening manner) that puts the person in immediate danger of or in apprehension of such harm or contact”
By that definition I’ve given have you ever assaulted her?
I find it interesting that guys loveeee to do anal but when the role is reversed they are like Uh No. Sooo if it's okay for the woman, why not the man? LOL
Your boyfriend has a bpd best friend. She will suck life out of everything. Get away from him if he can't get away from her obvious emotional manipulation.
I really want you to think about how she feels right now. Your snap judgement about her was that she's just like her mom.
You called her abusive
You've been together for 5 years, but you jump to that conclusion after one sentence she utters. She's devastated. She has no clue when you'll call her abusive again.
You dated a pick me. Probably your type. You can tell her “you’re not like other girls” and she can try to prove it by doing all the things pick mes do. Match made in heaven.
No doubt in my mind they are faking because doing otherwise would create a difficult working environment. I wouldn’t be surprised if, after they break up, people start approaching her and commenting on how she’s better off.
Yeah. But they are dumb kids who probably miss their father who is not involved and they’re angry. OR, the OP has thrown money at the situation but hasn’t been very nice to them .
He's still on it, but he really got started. He completely stands by me now and I can really talk to him now and he can comfort me instead of shutting down whenever I get sad.
This seems to have touched a nerve for YOU, not me. Do you only date people you aren’t attracted to? Are they the only people you can get to date you or something? Man you’re going to bat for this mf
Get a vasectomy. Most if not all hormonal birth control kills libido
I screeched lmao ?

Let her distance herself from your boyfriend. Maybe talk to her and see if she's willing to only interact with you without him around.
She needs the distance to get over this unhealthy crush.
The solution is right in front of you
If you don’t pay it she can’t text you anymore. Done and dusted

Our work arounds reduced the pressure on my Dude.
the gym will allow you to cancel with a fee. Cancel it. Cancel hers, not yours.

Damn she's ruthless
It sounds like it is time for two cards – divorce or therapy. You are allowing your wife to treat you like her slave.

If he's in a relationship he'd have to turn down all the other women at his College trying beat down his door for sex. /s
Op didn't want a real relationship, he thought he'd be drowning in trim while at college. Can't form any relationships, he has to stay AvAiLaBLe.
Dude “learning” his relationship skills from Revenge of the Nerds and porn.
Leave.
Tell her that you deserve better than to be abused, defamed, and cheated on.
Your wife sounds like a real bitch. Sorry dude.
I find it interesting that guys loveeee to do anal but when the role is reversed they are like Uh No. Sooo if it's okay for the woman, why not the man? LOL

It's still a mistake. Whether he chose to say it or not, choosing to say it was a mistake.

Fucking apologize, man.

Should of made it clearer he would be free to do whatever as well lol oops
