I suggested it. When I ask what he would like to do at the weekend, he responds "I don't know". I'll list some things with no real contribution from...

ok so it's not just me ...

I've said it before and I'm sure I'll be saying it again... If I ever had to go to the lengths you went to snoop on your g/f then just kill me now. ...

An issue was that we always did things that interested him so this him putting in the effort to do something I enjoyed.

No she isn’t. She told me he is in therapy to fix the reason they broke up. And I know many religious women who will not sleep with a man. You...

This is not the first time this issue has been discussed. I have given him clear examples of what would make me feel valued. For example, I ask if he...

I do work out. I’ve lost a lot of weight but I always gain it back because i enjoy food too much. But I go to the gym 3 times a week and I have for...

??? This is worrying ..I don't think I am clear on this bit ...........................but this is a worry if you have to go to these lengths

I'm assuming she works full time? Smackie, makes a good point, sit down with an advisor, have you and her see what it takes to run a household...

I wouldn't have feelings for an emotional blackmailer, either. Next time he contacts me I'd tell him that he self-fulfilled his prophecy, and he's...

This got through to me. I put all my evidence of a serious relationship based on her being affectionate and showing me off, and well, saying I was...

She was referring to back when they were together. That she would post him and he’d want it removed. Fast forward to now when they’ve broken up, her...

I sure hope so . It is the difference between a 70% pension and a 90% pension. 90% of his best 5 years as his pension per year. 20% is a significant...

Engaged by 2021? Honestly..that sounds very fair. The majority of couples are nowhere near financially stable when they get married. As long as...

If what he wants is what you want too, then that is what to focus on. "He has a good chance." Visualize it as "so it shall be."

Just give it time. A lot of people won't admit to those insecurities but I think it's normal. You've only been one year together. This is barely a...

It's about consistency, not just an hour. Indeed and I'm surprised that so many men realize that in the early stages of dating but let it slide...

no, completely different sitch.

"Foreplay starts outside of the bedroom"

I know but we get what we are given too not necessarily what we want . I never used to be so negative but my husband was an intensely negative human...

OP you and your girl get your financial stuff ( loans, credit card statements, banking info, tax papers) together and go see a money/fiance planner....

I'm wondering this too. Or, put another way: Was there ever a time in your relationship where you felt he succeeded in validating your feelings...

.... and that ^^^ is the jist of their problem... This problem, by the way is not anything new and many couples in long term relationships go through...

I can relate to this dynamic and it is very similar to my marriage and ultimate divorce. It becomes that viscous cycle of what came first. You...

Instead of concentrating on that negative, change it up to "I'm glad that I will not have to start my business over because my hubby will be...

You're such a great voice on these matters here. I really didn't mean to edge toward that cliche. I think her timeline is very sensible and I...

Did you explain to him that it's hard for you to feel aroused when there has been zero intimacy (not talking sex) in your relationship?

Di you hope to be more than friends? Is this the "very religious" girl? :...
