The OcUK Relationship Counselling and Hugs Thread

Long distance.. Nope!! Lol we live together.

We are never apart unless when she is at work. I work from home.

Last Sunday and today has been the first weekend day when I can remember since meeting her almost 20months ago I have had alone!! Which last Sunday I actually enjoyed, it was so relaxed like today no need to check what I say or anything.

I think this is an amazing piece of advise really. This weekend has been the first day of a weekend that I have now seen my other half in over 18months!!! (Since we met), due to her changing jobs and now having Shift work at the hospital so she worked yesterday from 8-8pm.

Am I being dense?
 
Ok, here we go.

Your relationship sounds terrible and you both sound unhappy with the direction things are going in. That's because you are in a terrible relationship. My advice would be:

1. Don't get married to your fiancee.
2. Break off your engagement.
3. Spend some time having fun and remembering that life can be pretty great.
4. Do cool stuff and meet new people.
5. If you want to, date people. People are fun.
6. Make your life a happy one.

Exactly. I know this will probably happen again at some point, which is why I would rather do it now rather than it happening when we have children.

I know it has to happen, its just hard to actually do it.

Update. Well we had talks and decided to give it one more go. This was Friday, and today, she found out she is pregnant!

So glad I managed to sort things out with her now, and if anything is going to pull us together and make us stronger it's this (hopefully).

So yeah, I'm kind of excited now :)
 
Why do most women want you to text and ring them all the time?

Even on OKCupid there is a question about how your partner has to keep in contact at least once a day, and the majority say this is an absolute must.... sometimes I like my own time and nothing turns me off a woman more than her nagging at me or moaning because I didn't phone her due to being busy!

Hate to tell you, but if your relationship is in trouble, the stress of a baby is just as likely to drive you apart as bring you together. Tread carefully, but I hope you manage to work it out if that's what you want.
 
Hopefully yours! :o

Definitely mine thanks :eek:

It was in trouble, we are perfectly fine now after a good long talk the other day and we both know where we stand etc....

I think I might be a woman, I like shopping too.

Unlike most men i like going shopping with my gf to get her clothes. If you want her to look hot then you need to be there to make sure she picks the right clothes, so when she asks for my opinion i steer her in the right direction (Higher heels, shorter skirts, tighter tops etc)

The upshot is that since we've been together she went from a cute but dowdy girl to someone seriously hawt! :o

That is what http://net-a-porter.com is for. All the clothes she could want from the comfort of your lounge ;)
 
Think this has to be the best insecure comment and realisation of the situation I am in.....

GF and fiancé of 19Months, walking the dog through a small shopping precinct.......

Me "One day I am going to go into the Butchers and get one of the Sausage rolls they look amazing"

Her "Could I come or can't I"

Me "......... What"

Her "Well do you want me there"

Me "......... I just assumed you would be there if you wanted one....."

Ugh FFS! SOLID AS A ROCK!

Cannot believe this.

Wow...insecure is not the word!

Daft thing is, if you 2 break up (after she has got over it) she will probably look back at the relationship and think "OMG! I can not believe I was like that..."

How old are you both? (sorry if this has already been asked)

e: and is this her first 'proper' relationship (live together, engaged etc)
 
That level of insecurity would make my head explode, if only people understood that a reasonable level of confidence is an attractive trait.
