if you truly want to get rid of your phone spooning habit, start by not having a relationship with someone who will betray you at every chance she gets.
Nice to hear I’m not alone! I’ve been thinking about doing it after the holidays since I don’t want to ruin them. I’m also hoping for some Christmas magic that will reignite my feelings haha.
Yeah… thinking about it now, we’re young! We really don’t need to pressure ourselves like this. This is where we see what we want and don’t want in relationships and figure out how they work.
I wish the best to you and hope it works out, whatever you choose. Make yourself happy and I will also be doing the same 🙂
This is one of those “funny” stories women tell about their partners that’s actually horrifying. It will probably be an episode of Kevin Can F*** Himself next season.
I feel like many young woman (and some older women, lol) assume that guys only want sex, or that sex is how you gain the interest of men. It’s not a conscious decision; both women and men are socialized from a very young age to consider women as ornaments, objects of sexual desire, and women are regularly reduced to their sexuality in everything from advertising to film and television roles.
I wonder if she’s approaching the relationship that way, and isn’t getting any pushback for feedback from you that you’d want more?
Women are masters of avoiding conflict with men in situations like this. Everything she did screams “I'm uncomfortable because of this guy” and you're making this about you? Maybe consider how she dodged conflict, awkwardness, potential violence, and more before you make this about you. You're being insecure. She's surviving in a world that perpetuates the idea that males can't be told no directly. Get over your own issues and let her keep her survival instincts
i've been wrestling with whether or not we're actually happy together, and whether we should seek therapy and figure out ways to compromise for each other, or whether it's the right thing to cut things off here and find someone who's more similar.
Everyone's given you the answer – Leave her. This is the dirtiest, shittiest move to pull on a partner. Basically stringing you along while she openly looks for someone else. On this suggested action alone you should break up with her. No one worth your future should ever do this to you.

There’s probably 100 women that fit me on paper. My wife is the one that fits me in real life. The physical intimacy is remarkable and priceless.

People who are always late typically do it for the attention it gives them.
I am more like him than you. Buying me tickets to an event without asking me first would more often than not anger me rather than please me.
If it is that important to you, yes find someone on the same page as to how you express affection
Sounds like she isn't your friend. Personally I would cut ties.
I'm female with a male best friend.
We do not do those things. We do normal hugging, nothing I wouldn't give any other friend.
That is not a platonic friendship that you described.

Wtf, how can he change it??

You guys are just dating.
It sounds like you own your own place while he owns his.
When you guys buy a house together one day, perhaps then you guys can put both names on the deed.
Maybe you guys are just incompatible.
Glad you wrote it all out and you see it more clearly now, right???
You are young and can do better.

I think I needed this comment exactly.
