The girl at work

Hi, first time on reddit. I work in a very busy store, about 6 months ago I openly started asking out my new coworker over text. She is the most beautiful girl in the world, I cannot over exaggerate that it is just facts. I’m shy and I’ve had bad luck before with coworkers. I thought texting would break the ice and be just informal enough to not create much tension at work. I only did it when I was off the clock, I take my work kinda seriously, it is after all my job and I wouldn’t feel right pursuing someone while I’m working. Now, being that she is a beautiful girl and I wasn’t sure if she was going to be seasonal I acted on my inhibitions. Normal right? Normal thing to do. There were some signs she liked me too and I just knew I didn’t want to just be friends or coworkers with her. From the second I saw her I’ve been captivated, intrigued, my heart just glows knowing someone like her exists. I want to kiss her every time that I see her, I’ve always felt like that. Well, back to the texting, she has a boyfriend. I escalated things, I told her to dump him. I every other week or so would ask her out, something casual, but definitely a date. She started telling her bf about me, then I think work started to take notice. She was not having any of my shenanigans. Her bf even texted me, which I humbly ignored. At least there’s some proof he exists. I finally opened up in a really long text, too long might I ad. What?! Expressing how I felt about her, specifically how she made me feel for who she is and that I wanted more. I ended it with take it or leave it and got blocked. We don’t really talk now at all at work unless we have to. I look at her and I feel like my hands and feet are tied and there’s this sinking feeling in my chest like I don’t know what to do, I’m thinking this just isn’t going to happen ever and I’m trying to accept that. I actually gave her more space by distancing myself from her once I started thinking I might be making her uncomfortable because I thought that was the most loving thing to do. Now I don’t know what to do. This guy I work with commented to me today how good she looked and I just nodded, little does he know how I truly feel about her. I want her all to myself.

The difference between being right and being understood

My boyfriend and I are 28. We’ve been together for about 1.5 years and recently moved in together. He’s a pretty patient and easygoing person (Type B) whereas I’m more particular (Type A). Of course there are two sides to every trait, and my Type A nature benefits us in some ways too. Like all couples, we have differences in perspective or preference. When this happens, he will usually say something like “I disagree (with your perspective) but fine.” I tend to push the issue in an attempt to get him to understand where I’m coming from. This escalates the disagreement into a fight because he perceives it as me trying to be “right”. I truly just want to be understood (and I want to understand where he’s coming from) so I’m looking for more of a dialogue whereas he avoids conflict and just wants it to be over as quickly as possible. His general approach is “agree to disagree” but that doesn’t make sense to me when it’s an issue that will keep coming up and requires compromise. I’m n...

My (27f) gf (27f) is getting tired of me not sharing intimate/ personal info about me

I’ve always been extremely private and introverted. We have more than a year together and we’ve been living together for like 6 months, we get along pretty good and I’m really in love with her, however I can not seem to open up... and I can tell it’s frustrating to her by the way she tells me it bothers her that she feels she’s the only one committed and the one that’s always sharing... At this point I don’t even know if it is that I’ve gotten too used to it, to the point I’ve became lazy to talk about myself or give any genuine personal opinion... it sucks, really, I need to communicate better... Where do I start? Tl;dr: I can’t be completely intimate with my gf and its frustrating her, I need to communicate better because I really love her... where to start?

My (23M) girlfriend (25F) relationship is confusing to me. I might be the problem, or maybe we are just incompatible.

I met my girlfriend after a few serious breakups that led me to change both intentionally and unintentionally over a few years. For better and for worse. She had just gotten out of an engagement with a verbally and physically abusive man who had a cocaine problem. We have been together about 8 months now. We hit it off and spent a lot of time together but she began to push our relationship as if there were a time clock for milestones. I was pressed beyond my comfort zone and went with it because of my affection for her. My living situation fell apart and I lost a few thousand dollars to shit roommates right around the time she and I met and she offered to let me stay with her. I agreed with some resistance. I pay for food, help her with bills, and throw money toward rent while trying to get back on my feet. As long as we have been together she has gotten more possessive, angry, and irrational. She is dealing with shit from her engagement and I feel shes looking for a level of seriou...
