We have considered breaking up a lot but can't seem to decide to make that decision yet. One of the biggest things is pot. I'm not super keen on dating a drug user anyway, but have coexisted very happily with others. For whatever reason my SO becomes very unempathwtic and selfish when high. If I feel emotional and he is high he can't fathom why I would feel that way or why he should do anything. For periods of time he went sober and I thought he seemed more alert to emotional things. Then went back to smoking and he became detached again. Would seem very interested in my thoughts when high sometimes then very irate when sober. He has so many excuses why he can't see a therapist (mostly money) and I get that but I'm sick of our arguments always turning into \"you don't like me high because you don't like pot\" and me turning into \"I hate pot\". I know plenty of nice people who smoke but I don't know why my boyfriend acts this way. Advice for addressing his behavior without sounding opinionated and condescending? Any ideas why he becomes a selfish detached person when using it?" }

She's going to be 2 hours away from me and I need tips on how we can communicate better in college together. She's very open and friendly to other people while me on the other hand take some time to be social with others. I'm very jealous and over think when she doesn't respond to me within 1-2 hours. I've had a bad history with my family in the past that makes me very un-trusting of others and worry a lot but I want to learn how to trust her better. When she texts other people I always feel the need to look at who she is texting. I don't want to be controlling in anyway and need help trusting her better since shes going to be far away and in college. Thanks." }

{ "text": "System: I want you to summarize this text\nDocument: Me - 22/m Her - 19/f. Been dating for more than a year.\n\nSo things have been going great for us so fair. We met in August of 2010, her freshmen year of college, my senior. Most of our relationship has taken place at college, so there hasn't been much need for parents to meet, up until about a week ago. My mom asked when will she meet the girl's parents.\n\nI winced.\n\nMore specifically, I dread her father meeting my parents. The girl's mom is a sweetheart; that won't be an issue. However, the father is rather outspoken in a crude manner. My mother and stepfather are full mexican and my stepfather can barely speak English. This does not bode well as the girl's father is rather racist (and not in a funny way). Knowing all their personalities, I know this will not go over well.\n\nThis was brought up again today while my parents came up to have lunch with the girl and I. The girl and I knew that it was just a bad idea. Later on, she talked to her mother, and her mum reassured her that the dad will pipe down. However, I just don't think things will go over well. Other factors may include difference in class/income of families and religious beliefs. This I'm not too worried about.\n\nI only about this because the girl and I would like to be together after college and beyond til death, and families will have to put up with each other eventually. So what advice can you guys give to kinda diffuse this situation, in case things don't go over well?" }

Maybe explaining it more would make it less so.\n\nThe question I've been grappling with for a long time is if people join family units late in life. I figured those are relationships, and this would be the place to ask.]\n\n*\n\nI am presumably two and one half hours out of a 28 year abusive relationship that is best described as a combination of Stockholm Syndrome and Misery (the film; I have not seen it, but the hobbling sequence in trailers is spot on). \n\nNobody could possibly believe the truth of what has gone on, with the possible exception of John Waters on some sort of hallucinogen. \n\nI will spend some time tomorrow changing the locks on my house, securing fence lines, and reinforcing safes. After that, I have no Earthly idea how to reenter society, or if that's even acceptable.\n\nI cannot possibly think of dating. Kissing another woman (or man) would terrify me. Being naked in front of someone without a medical degree might possibly scar them for life.\n\nAny advice would be very welcome. Snide comments are forbidden by the sidebar rules of this subreddit, so those should probably go to PM. I'm a /b/tard, so it's cool.\n\nMaybe I should think of this as a script treatment for Grumpy Old Men II - Grumpier-er. \n\nI have started this post many times, and chickened out at the last moment.

I broke up with my ex about 6 months ago now, and have pretty much thought it was a mistake from the time that it happened. \n\nThings had sort of soured between us as we went to colleges an hour apart without cars for both of us, and it all just kind of came crashing down. I wasn't a good boyfriend, let alone friend first semester and it ended the second week of the second semester. She was my first kiss, first love, and we both lost our virginities to each other. For a long time we had both had long term plans in mind, maybe it was us just being inexperienced teenagers.\n\nI've talked to her about getting back together for awhile, but I've also talked to other girls. The main reason why we're not back together is because I slept with another girl during a bender I took while trying to drown my regret after I broke up with her. Every girl I've talked to has just left me feeling empty. I end up not really caring if they talk to me or not after a few days. \n\nI'm scared that I won't feel the instant connection I had with my ex with anyone soon. I've found a few friends in girls I've talked to, but none of them have had that mix of intrigue, attraction, and butterflies that came along when I first met her. \n\nI'm not really sure how to proceed. I don't know how to get over her when I feel like my whole world has been lost and I can't get it back." }

I questioned my commitment to her, my love for her, and told her the truth about not wanting to facetime. I ended up breaking up with her. Felt a bit rash of me I am willing to admit. The thing is when we are together we are very happy. I am having a hard time with the long distance because it doesn't feel as real, and she is as well because she wants to be in consistent contact while together. \n \n It has been a month since and I still miss and love her dearly.

{ "text": "System: I want you to summarize this text\nDocument: I need some advice. Patience and savings are not my strong suit.\n\nI feel really conflicted about how much money I should be saving vs how much money I should be budgeting for things I occasionally NEED, like clothing for work or a new winter coat. Then at the bottom of the priority list is things I'd like to buy in the next few years (like several hundred $ home repairs, etc.).\n\nI'm almost 30, just to give some context. It seems like by the time I budget everything out (I use YNAB) making about $28,000 annually, I have a very tiny amount of money left over each month for things like work clothing. Occasionally we all need to replace wardrobe items. \n\nIn addition to this, I'd also like to put some money aside for bigger home purchases. We bought our house 3 years ago and have done some major repairs that were vital: new roof, waterproofed the basement, those were big items. It's right around 30 years old, so things are starting to need updating and replacing. Things like replacing our front door that doesn't latch properly, eventually new carpet, putting up curtains in the few remaining rooms that never got them when we moved in.\n\nMy husband makes significantly more than I do, we have a mortgage, his car is paid off, I have about 3 years left on my car loan, but no other major debts (praise the Lord!). We budget together, but our money stays separate and he pays a much higher percentage of the mortgage and the rest of our monthly bills. We also have a toddler, which has increased our bills, but we use cloth diapers and almost all of her clothing and toys are purchased secondhand.\n\nIf I put some money into each of the categories I have after bills, it ends up being about $5 every month or two in a few categories. This includes things like haircuts, holidays, contact lenses, vitamins, clothing, occasionally going out for dinner. I feel like we live pretty frugally, but my budget is still so tight every month. \nI'm almost at the point where I have a buffer of a month's bills and some savings, but I can't even buy a new pair of work pants." }
