What happened to working out problems… why is everyone’s immediate response “dump him/her” instead of “you need to have a sit down conversation” 😭

Anonymous 1w

Some things, like when either party is highly resentful, purposefully abusive, dangerous, or unwilling to genuinely try to change, are better off left behind. Of course, there’s also the people that bandwagon on “he doesn’t deserve you” stuff in a man-hating way, which has some overlap but is generally different. Still, I think many relationship advice posts do still get a ‘talk to him about it’ or ‘communicate’, it’s not like we’ve stopped saying that.

because it's not our job to be men's therapists

It really depends on what the issue is. A lot of what I see on here makes it seem like their partner isn’t showing that they care or is blatantly proving they don’t love the op and there’s no point in trying to fix that

This is a big generalization

What did #1 say? They have me blocked. Seems like they weren’t able to work out whatever issue they had with me on yikyak 💀

There’s just some things that cannot be worked out… like cheating

People can often exaggerate details like that when recalling a story from their own perspective, a partner can seem much more distant and apathetic when the only things someone tells you about them are times when they were distant and apathetic, which leads to most of us online defaulting to “break up with him”

That’s true, but also if it is true that they aren’t showing the person complaining about it that they care either, that is an issue. People do often complain when they are the most worried about something but also a lot of people will just silently deal with it for a long time until they bring it up and that causes extra tension and distance too

That’s obviously an outlier in this context

Makes sense they seem very much of the blocking and continue thinking they’re right when they’re wrong type .
