New to the Relationship Stress Community? Introduce yourself here!! ❤️

Hey, I'm new here... I'm struggling with my long distance relationship, we've been together 2 years but it keeps getting more & more toxic, we're both jealous, especially him which lead me to hiding things from him in fear of him getting really angry & jealous at me again & he found out something which I hid from him & he now refuses to forgive me & holds it against me... I know he's hidden things from me too, but I can't confront him because he accuses me of accusing him of various things & shuts me down, I honestly don't know what to do anymore, I'm terrified & keep crying, he gets angry at the smallest things... I don't know if I am a terrible person or if he makes me think I'm a terrible person... I don't want to loose him, I miss him so much... but it feels like he finds any little thing to get angry at me... I'm rarely angry at him & if I do, I forgive him immediately... when we see eachother in person he's so different, sweet & caring, by text he's honestly a completely different aggressive person... I'm so lost and exhausted... scared & don't know that he's going to do, there are still stupid things he doesn't know & need to know but am afraid he will find out & once again, make a scene... I'm so sorry for this long message & I feel hopeless... I'm already very anxious as a person and suffer with depression which doesn't help... I'm basically a mess

Hey

So my last relationship was about 2 and a half year ago. He messed with my feelings and just wanted to use me has his toy. At first I felt like he was just a douchebag and it doesnt bother me at all but now I feel like I cannot trust anyone and am unable to love. I have recently met a guy that is so nice and I am feeling attracted to him but whenever I talk to a cute boy I feel co fused and like as if I am into them. I know this must be confusing to read, but it's even more co fusing for me. I fear that he is just gonna use me like my ex even though he is completely differemt characterwise. I hope somebody can possibly help me and give me some advices on what to do now, I have been feeling like this for 3 days and have a fear that I will loose him if I feel like this and do something stupid impulsively.

Thanks for every response I get!!

Hello.

Im currently taking a break from my friendship with my best friend because I became too emotionally attached and he just got a boyfriend. I'm really happy for the guy, but im sad for myself.

I haven't spoken to my friend in a few days and its really hard and hurts. I really want to see him and talk to him

Hi 7 cuppers.

I've battled mental illness most of my life. Been in and out of the hospital and many different therapists. I'm currently on a handful of meds everyday but not therapy. My other half just started an antidepressant, but has never been in therapy. We both struggle to communicate in a healthy manner. We both often take things the wrong way or personally when it's mostly environmentally. I really want this relationship to last. Anyones thought or feeling about this or anything like it or suggestion on what to try. I'm an open ear to anyone who needs it too.

Hi everyone, really glad to have found this forum. I'm usually good at solving my own problems, but I'm finding it hard to get a clear perspective on a long term friendship. I'd really appreciate some insight!

My name is Shay, and I am 20 and I have been dating my boyfriend for the past four monts and he has RAD. (Reactive Attatchment Disorder). I have read on how to handle it, and why he is the way he is. However he has been hot & cold with me for the past couple weeks . One moment warm, and affectionate. Then maybe 2 days later hes distant and withdrawn. Help please I am so confused!

Hi Im andrea

I dont know how unique of the situation Im in is. So Ive been with my boyfriend for a total of what I consider 6 years (1 year dating, 2 years of friends with benefits, and now 3 years dating) and now we are in our early 20s. He has recently changed his views of marriage and having kids. All the years Ive known him hes wanted to get married and have a family. Now he thinks marriage is just an expensive party to let the government know youre committed to someone and he wants to be the last person in his family to have kids (hes the oldest of 3 siblings and 5 cousins the youngest is 10 years younger than him). I am strongly against both of these; to me marriage is more than just a party and I want to be a mom like other people want to be doctors or teachers. I dont want to wait until 35 to try and start a family with my boyfriend. I dont want kids now but in the next 5 years and I want to have kids with my husband. I feel like he goes out of his way to tell me we arent having kids and I know he knows what I want and how bad. It really depresses to think that I wont have kids but I cant imagine trying to find someone else to spend my life with but its killing me to just hope my boyfriend will just change his mind. Any advice?

Hey I

Hi I'm in a relationship and need answers because I'm inexperience

Hi I'm Richard

I'm 25 and never had any friends or relationships really. Nowadays, when I'm chatting with people, online or otherwise, and they kinda invite me to do stuff, I get kinda scared, not knowing what they expect or what I should expect or even want.

I want to make friends and get a relationship someday, but I keep giving people reasons to not even wanna bother, like not showing up to an appointment we'd made or just deleting all contact info resulting in dead silence for weeks.

It just makes me feel like a fundamentally broken person
