Parents don't like to be undermined. Especially by the inlaws, even if they are being homophobic towards their child. Speak to your brother about it and go from there.

Can you maintain a relationship with your brother and Nephew without her? If so, I'd take it as a win that you don't have to be around her. She sounds horrible.

It just seems so random since that argument happened in May and I wasn’t even there and allowed her to vent about my parents to me too. The reason I want to reach out is because it makes me feel like I did something wrong! I treated her like a friend, even to the point when I was home for whatever she would go out with me and my friends

I blocked because he is younger and I thought he was just a horny younger guy but he showed me his is very mature and capable of loving me. I like how he makes me feel, and he likes how I respond to how he is with me. It is hard for us to ignore this. I won't be blocking him.

What are you doing with a guy with that weird age gap. You are at an age where you should experience life and not get saddled with a mid 30s man who's having a mid life crisis dating someone 10 years younger. Get out and move on. You have a lot of life and shouldn't be worrying about his mess.

Yes. Whether she’s doing it deliberately or whether it’s some subconscious mechanism - it is manipulative. Another word I would use here is “abusive”.

You need to have a frank discussion with her about this behavior. It is clearly not healthy for you. If you can’t resolve this issue between the two of you in a manner that leads to her not abusing you it would be a good idea to seek professional assistance with a therapist - jointly and individually.

You deserve better.

Why are you with that A hole? He sounds abusive.

⬆️⬆️⬆️ this!!!! And flowers and ur favourite snacks won’t change the fact that he’s cheater.

Interesting point, and that is one thing that which would remind me he is not mature. He did not understand why I wanted boundaries or space from him. He would get pretty upset when I would push him away. Blocking him will make me look awful because he have a lot of mutual friends.

You're still very young and have plenty of time to build a life with someone else. You're not giving us much to go on as to why this relationship is worth trying to salvage--do you feel there is a good division of labor, a good sense of communication, and a good amount of mutual respect?

At the end of the day, only you can decide if the trust is there to have a stable foundation for a relationship, or if his deceit has broken that trust irreparably. My two cents is it's only 7 months and it's better to get out now--why take the risk that he will disappoint you when he's already shown you who he is. And tbh, I don't believe him when he says nothing happened with his ex (or if that was even the only time).

And this is all setting aside the age gap, which raises some questions.

Edit: After reading more details from your other posts, get out now. He didn't come clean, he was exposed; his ex confirmed they slept together, as do the contents of his texts; and, to top it all off, he's blaming you and trying to control your social media, purely so he can control the narrative and limit information about who he cheats with without others finding out, which is 100% abusive behavior--are you sure you're even the girlfriend and not the other woman? His behavior surrounding sex and requiring it every time, including guilt tripping you about "holding him hostage" is also classic abuse.

I think you hit the nail on the head on both counts and yeah I'll definitely be taking this sofa from now on if we've been drinking.
I still don't really know whether to bring up what happened with her.

Grow a pair, pussy. This chick is dead weight.

I feel like if you cant communicate with your husband, you shouldn't be having kids. It's really time for a sit down conversation to talk about your plans for the future and how you're getting there.

So block again. You arent required to respond to him.

Then stop complaining if you wont continue to block him and he wont listen to your boundaries. He is t owed your time. You dont owe him anything. Either grow a spine and ignore him or live with it.

I'm a gamer. I love games, I play since I was 14 years old (in year 2000). But, unless someone is a pro gamer, it is not normal to play for more than 2 hours per day on average. Sure, that can be rearranged so you play 4 or 5 hours for two days a week, then don't play for the rest of the week. Or, you can sometimes be on a vacation, have a lot of free time, and then you can play more than usual.

But, playing for several hours every day, and neglecting real life duties or people in your life is a path to ruin. I've seen stories about people, or seen some cases in real life, where people choose gaming over their partner, job or school, and it is so sad.

I think your boyfriend needs an ultimatum. It is either you or his games, because right now, you don't have a boyfriend. Why not make it official and find someone who will talk to you, go out with you and have sex with you?

Holding the child only means she has access to a child.

Thank you. I’ve tried reasoning with him but I guess I’ll have to be brutally honest with him
