my husband is a Salty Gamer™️ and it’s adorable; The story of how to act out on your crushes

Hi welcome to my TED talk on how I met my spouse

I do want to encourage people that there’s ways to meet people where you least expect them, and how relationships can literally hit you like a brick. Sometimes, you just gotta show someone you like them, and not really care about the consequences, because in the end, a good person would still be your friend.

During college, I met my husband through some... Really shitty friends, considering one of them had a crush on him and concluded he didn’t like her because he was gay. Ironically, she concluded I was a lesbian because I had a mild crush on her. Me and my husband are pretty 50/50 bi.

Anyway, one night we were just playing games together, and it was starting to get really late. Since it was a weekend and it was like 2 in the morning, I suggested for him to just stay over. Me being loopy from sleep deprivation and wanting to act on my crush, I just kinda gave him a good ol night night smooch and crashed on the floor. About two hours later, I roll over and I hear, “Hey OP? I think I really like you” and I kinda mumble in my sleep, “I like you too” and pass out. I jolt awake like a minute later to smooch him again... and that’s how I started dating my husband.

The moral of the story? Act out on your crushes. Maybe not in the way I did, but go ahead and try. Something wonderful might come out of it!

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...
