Second is this constant, never-ending bombardment of personal tests. You're testing him with everything he does. And reacting badly when he doesn't get a passing grade. You're setting him up for disaster every time, and it's really unfair.
It's time to take some responsibility. Honestly, if I were in his shoes, I'd be the one leaving you.  |
I think I am testing him, in a way doesn't everybody... Don't people get rejected because they're not attractive enough or not witty enough or their personal habits don't come up to scratch.
But more than testing him I kind of look at it as giving him opportunities, certainly I've given him the opportunity to do stuff sexually that he'd never experienced before.
I do expect a lot in return though, rather than tolerating stuff I prefer to be up front about it. I think relationships are meant to be a little bit of a struggle. To be honest he has a lot of funny ideas when it comes to sex so I think he needs to work through them.
As for suggesting that he would be better off leaving me... well I am genuinely hurt mainly I think because if you invest a little time and effort in trying to put down in words what's happening in your life for other people to read it does hurt when you read something like that.
Now I know you'll say you're just being honest and its your honest opinion ,, but in between the the appeal for understanding and suggesting that he'd be better off leaving me..I really did pick up on a little hint of malice in your post. And thats just my honest opinion.
I think its easy to forget sometimes how important it is to people to feel that they're fufilling their partner sexually. I feel a lot better and I think my bf has bounced back in a big way.
Thanks to everybody that posted in the last couple of days things have improved dramatically.
I don't want to be one of those people that only contibutes to message boards when they've got a problem. I got sense of satisfaction from writing my post but I think I need to find a different outlet in future.
So thanks again everyone..
bye
