He’s putting lives in danger and if you stay you’re in danger as well. He likes this, his rage feels powerful and satisfyingly him. Now imagine leaving the hospital with your new born baby and someone cuts him off.

You can’t change him, but you can leave him or refuse to ever get in a car he’s driving again. There is no other choice and no magical thinking will change your circumstances.

I definitely get more attention from my partner when I dress up. I like it that way. But he’s never shy to tell me I’m cute, beautiful, sexy etc. when I’m not dressed up. So I can understand your point of view.

I think you should talk with your boyfriend about how that makes you feel. Let him know you enjoy the words of affirmation and you want him to do it more often (when you’re simply your regular self).

If he can’t or if he feels you’re not “beautiful enough” without all the pizazz.. it’s up to you where to go from there. Personally I would feel they’re not attracted to me and I would probably leave.

It wouldn't be over a walk. It would be over his behavior. He was unkind and rude.

If this is the first time he's ever done something like this, it's worth talking to him about, after he's had a chance to cool off from whatever was bugging him that day. "I felt very hurt and confused by your behavior on that walk. Can you explain to me what was going on? I'd like to understand and I'd like for us to talk about how we can avoid similar situations in the future"

If he's rude and snippy frequently, and it is something you can't accept and he won't change, now is probably a good time to cut your losses and move on.

Mind you, it's possible that he has grown tired of maintaining the courtship behavior that attracted you to him, and is starting to revert to his normal self as infatuation fades and real life sets in. If you start to see this behavior more frequently, that is probably what is happening. The real him is showing up.

If he didn't say he likes you better with makeup, that's something you're coming up with internally. Everyone looks better with makeup, you're not alone in that. Unless you get cosmetic surgery, fillers, botox, eyelash extensions, microbladed brows, etc you aren't going to just wake up looking amazing. And that's totally okay! I look exhausted without makeup.

It sounds as though you just would appreciate him being sweet with you even if you aren't all made up. Just talk to him about it and let him know you're feeling insecure. Unless you're dating an asshole, it's likely he didn't think about it and will try to make more of an effort if you tell him how you feel.

Thanks for commenting :) Honestly me and her do semi long distance. We are both in college about 4 hours away we see each other for a weekend every 2 weeks. I have a high sex drive so I can't really go more then 2 days without relief. I do not watch porn as she helps me over the phone with talk and visual help. She has been a great help and understands my needs.
