But why was she logging into her personal email on OP’s work laptop? Why was she even using that laptop?
Right? I’ve been in IT forever mostly work at home and my wife has never had access to my work computer. My latest work machine has a full-screen message about who is allowed to access it when it starts up.
I think there’s some confusion in how OP took it. Because reading this post, I also read it as him thinking she literally wanted him to die (not that she was going to kill him, just that she “wished death upon him,” in the words of the Potomac housewives). And I would be VERY surprised if that’s what she meant. I think a lot of people trying to clarify in the comments are doing so because they’re not sure if OP is upset about the fact that she said that at all (which is a very fair thing to be upset about! No reason not to be hurt), or if OP is upset because he thinks his gf literally wants him to die. I have to say, I don’t understand which one it is having reread the post twice.
I’ll be blunt: it’s most likely because your lifestyles are completely misaligned outside of music, politics, and partying, and the guys know that even if you don’t. Beyond that, while you don’t want to change the way you present yourself (and you shouldn’t), aesthetics factor heavily into attraction when you’re dealing with members of a subculture. “Sk8er boi” was a nice fantasy track but you’ll notice that the ballerina didn’t get the rockstar in the end — he picked the “sk8er grl.”
Moreover, while you might enjoy dipping your toes in this newfound scene, do you really think a hardcore punk would be comfortable entering your far more rigid social sphere that consists of doctors and similarly situated professionals? I mean, realistically. Do you? And for that matter, do you really want your partner to be an “e-boy” or stoner, or are you just having a bit of a quarter life crisis?
335! Wtf were in a recession

That promise is void when the underlying arrangement is breached by toxic behavior.
Otherwise, why not just pick up the tab for her kids' college, too…
Get your shit together, or this is going to be a trend in your relationships
