How do I know if my spouse is being emotionally abusive and a bully? Everytime they can, for any mistake, they unload on me. I’m about to explode.

I’m a 28 year old male, living with gf. I think I’ve got covid - very feverish, cough, hot and cold sweats, pains etc. When I get sick I turn into a massive baby - definition of “man flu”. Is this a massive problem for women (ie a big turn off)? Luckily I only get sick once every 2-3 years, but this feels awful and I’m being a massive sook and I can’t help it lol…

When do you and your SO start telling each other your income?

I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years. We are not married or living together.

He knows how much I make because I told him after my promotion. He is the entrepreneur type with a passive income gig.

His business has been very slow since covid but he just seem to be chillin at home. He never tells me if he is doing financially okay so when I asked. He got offended and asked me to drop the topic because he is doing okay.

My boyfriend has given soo many red flags over the past year but we’ve been trying to make it work. Heated arguments consistently every other week. We disagree on a lot of “expectations” in a relationship. He can be controlling and quick to get angry, and I just can’t take this emotionally anymore (esp when he blames me for making him angry). Tips on getting through the break up convo when you know it’s the right thing to do but you love them & it hurts like hell to end things?

My husband and I have had problems for years. He used to basically give me next to no affection, our sex life barely existed (incl. his absolute refusal to do foreplay … ever!) and his general dismissal of anything I enjoyed (my hobbies were boring to him). Over the last year I just gave up trying and accepted we may need to divorce. Now he is trying a lot- he puts in a lot of effort. While a few years ago this would have made me happy I feel like it’s too little too late, I just don’t care ..

Can someone please explain why some people bring up past emotional hurts during arguments even if you’ve apologized for them and they haven’t happened again? But they still feel the need to weaponize this moment and throw it in your face. And before anyone asks, no it’s not infidelity… just looking for advice/insight here

Started going out with one girl, we are both in the same position career wise. When we go out I tend to pay for everything. Girls before would always force 50/50 but not this one. Is this normal? If not, whats the best way to bring it up without making an argument?

Do you think it matters if you and your SO’s friends are similar? My boyfriend and my backgrounds are very different and while we are fine with each other’s friends, I would never mesh our friend groups. A part of me always get envious of couples who are able to expand their friend groups and do fun things together

With the new legislation that passed yesterday and the massive support from tech companies seemingly everywhere, does this mean that Christian views and beliefs are looked down upon? Are real Christians now to be discriminated against for believing in the sanctity of marriage between man, woman, and God? Just curious about what folks think. (Not hating on anyone-Love for all mankind is what I believe in).

Anyone married but still have feelings about your ex? Like you love your SO but still have lingering feelings?

My GF has trouble standing up for herself. She's on client travel and one of her co-workers made her really upset (very uncalled for and should have never happened). She called me crying. After consoling her I told her that she needs to go to her manager and possibly HR (yes it's to that level).
She told me she can't and she's not that person (she thinks she'll get the other person fired). She knows that she should and hates that she doesn't stand up for herself. What can I do to help?

Any tips for hard launching partners on social media? For context, I’ve (Indian American female) been dating my white American boyfriend for 3 years and we just got engaged after two years of convincing my parents. They are very happy and excited now, but I’m scared shitless about being ostracized / judged by my extended family and Indian community in the US once I “let the cat out of the bag” on the engagement news. I want to be proud and confident about this but could use some moral support.

I can sacrifice an entire weekend cleaning my house so that wife's friend can spend the week. When I ask for a couple hours to help get the house clean so a house cleaner can effectively clean I'm told that's my prerogative and get no help. Well fuck me for being tired of living in a messy house.

How to get over a girl who’s still always on your mind? Dated for 4 years, broke up beginning of July. One of those situations where you really think it’s “the one”. She has seemingly moved on pretty easily, which just hurts even more. I keep replaying scenarios in my head and wonder if there’s a chance at a future with us together again. 😔
