I guess this is the end…

Hello Reddit you might not know me but I am Scrginger. I have been active 7/365 for the past year and a half and I love all the amazing communities here. Before I get into this speech I have I would like to give a bit of background to this situation. When I first joined Reddit I was a stupid 14 year old fool who was just interested in doing something not boring. One of the first posts I read was a meme of a guy losing his virginity and deleting Reddit. I did not understand it at the time but now I think I get it. So I made a vow. When I would get a gf and lose my virginity then I would never use Reddit again. At the time I knew I would never get a gf so I was happy that I could enjoy Reddit for the rest of eternity. 1 year and a half later I have successfully established a relationship with a girl I really like and we both know what’s next on the menu. So, 2 days ago after I got off a call with her, it occurred to me that I promised myself to delete Reddit if the things that are happening would happen. So, here I am listening to nirvana and space song on 10 hour loop writing this wonderful story. I am very sad but hopeful at the same time. I am sad to leave all these unique communities that I have interacted with for more days than I can remember, but I’m hopeful because I have never made a commitment to myself this serious and I intend on keeping it to show that I can grow. The reason I am writing this is to say goodbye I guess and just say keep enjoying life everyone. In no circumstances will I return unless something or someone brings be back. You don’t have to upvote this but it would really mean a lot. I will occasionally check on some subreddits just to see how things are going but no more posts. Also I couldn’t really decide on what community to post this in so…

TL;DR: I am deleting Reddit because I now have a gf that I would have never expected and am keeping the promise I made to myself a year ago. So I guess this is goodbye…

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...
