why does my bf keep wanting to talk about his ex
Quote from brass堡 on January 28, 2020, 4:10 amIt was 10pm last night and I was just trying to eat my leftovers from Panera. He started talking about Sarah again. Not a quick story either. He went on for twenty minutes about how she liked her coffee black and how they used to go to Target together on Sundays. I felt so weird just sitting there nodding. We have been dating for six months now. Why is he still doing this? It feels like he is comparing me to her even when he thinks I am not listening. I am tired of feeling like the third wheel in his own relationship. I tried to say I wanted to talk about our weekend plans but he just interrupted me. I do not know what else to do. Does anyone else have a boyfriend who does this

Works a little better than flipping sheets. Also keep a damp washcloth by the bed and rotate it in the freezer. Not glamorous but it helps me get maybe six hours. Good luck out there.

Quote from margaret2000 on July 3, 2020, 12:56 amSame. I just walk fast around my neighborhood after clase. No gym, no counting macros, no expensive supplements. Just me and my thoughts. Sometimes I lift heavy boxes at work and thats enough resistance for me. I drink water and try to sleep 7 hours. If I feel like moving, I dance to bad bops in my room. Its not pretty but it keeps me sane. Why overcomplicate it when simply staying alive already takes so much effort?

Quote from bravehustle on March 12, 2021, 12:29 amhey there. i get it. honestly i just let it happen. stopped trying to hold onto the old version of myself. days are long out here in the woods so i just put on boots and walk it off. doesnt fix everything but helps me sleep. dont overthink it. just breathe and keep moving. youll figure it out like everyone else does. tough but true.

Quote from Doris1977 on November 25, 2021, 8:33 pmWell sugar, first you gotta find something to wear that ain't your church dress. I just started meeting folks for coffee at the local shop. Keep it short so you can bail if it gets awkward. Dont overthink it. If he cant hold a conversation about the weather or his dog, swipe left. I had a date last week who talked too much himself but hey, he paid for my latte so it wasnt a total loss.

Quote from Gemwall on March 16, 2021, 1:45 pmHonestly I just survived on cheap coffee and silence first few months. Tbh, Stop trying to be productive. My in laws still call daily so i muted their numbers. Go walk outside even if just around block. Eat whatever you want no guilt. One day at a time. If crying helps do it. Dont force yourself to be happy yet. Just exist.

Quote from melissa1998 on April 23, 2021, 7:56 amI get it. My husband was pushing hard too. I stopped overthinking the performance part and just told him we need low pressure. We switched to just touching without expecting penetration. Took the edge off for both of us. Now we actually want to be closer. Don’t force it if your body says no. Communication works better than ghosting through it. Just be honest.

Quote from Dewpeat on May 22, 2021, 2:31 pmBabe take the nap. Seriously. My husband wants round two daily and I’m over it. I just tell him I’m dead to the world. We compromise on weekends. Rest is sacred at my age. If he’s mad he can sleep on the couch. Your energy is limited so spend it on yourself. Don’t feel guilty.

Quote from JoyLark on January 14, 2021, 10:48 amyupp its not just u. my knees scream after sitting 10 hrs at my desk coding. i swear the office chairs r designed to torture us. started doing those simple chair stretches every hour and bought a cheaper ergonomic cushion. helps a bit but still hurts when weather changes. just try not to ignore it before it gets worse. my dad had bad knees by 40 lol.

Quote from Windlagoon on September 20, 2021, 6:37 pmI just watch him play those stupid games while I check my phone. Love means I tolerate his nonsense now lol. Its boring but whatever. Im an immigrant so I have better things to do than scream at him. Maybe he thinks it helps him focus? Idk. I just ignore it and make my coffee. If he really loved me he would turn it off but men are men.
