possible boyfriend??

i know in still young so its a bit embarrassing to talk about this, but there’s this guy. we dated for a while (only weeks) in the 8th grade until he broke up with me. after then we have still kept extremely close contact until covid hit, always hinting towards a reconciliation (multiple times) but it never happened. we would constantly text and facetime over quarantine. we have just recently started talking face to face again (mid 2021-now). we are now in the 10th grade. outside of talking in school, texting, facetime: things have moved quicker. recently he has since then offered to drive me to school nearly every morning, has gotten slightly more protective, he talks to his friends about me, makes shared playlists with me on spotify, we get each other gifts, matching clothes, he listens very carefully to me, and is planning on taking me to go the movies and get food. (reminder that he has never done most of this before) is the last part considered a date? is this basically dating, like boyfriend and girlfriend? he has never officiated anything with me since that small childish break up in literal middle school. is there a reason why he’s so scared to officiate anything? i like the chase and the idea of being with him but im not sure if he likes the idea. i don’t want to pry in and ask him so could anyone please tell me what he is thinking? could this “date” get me to where i want to be with him?

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...
