Confused about wth he wants

So I was seeing a guy last year and we were doing good but I did mess it up, he was putting in way more effort than I was, I blurted that it is only casual and that I’m still not over (or he thought I was still seeing) my ex from back home. I was going through a difficult time, working long hours, he was a body god and I was insecure chubster packing a few pounds because of heavy drinking, covid and mentally not okay. He went to visit back home, things fizzled out and one day we spoke and the vibe was off so I said bye. We ended on good terms.

I spent the next months really working on myself mentally and physically and I eventually messaged and asked if he wanted to grab coffee, he said ok but IMAGINE I see him the same day with another girl and he ghosts me (understandably).

Another few months later he keeps liking my stories. I just graduated and he went insane liking and commenting with this 👏. I said thanks and since it’s been silent.

I’m so confused, wtf is this? Why can’t I get him out of my head? Is it the guilt I have for not putting in more effort? Idk what to do because I can’t tell if it is his ego now that won’t let him text or genuine disinterest and he’s moved on. I need advice on how to handle this because I too have an ego

Thanks in advance

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...
