Is it totally unreasonable to want a partner who mostly tells you the truth about things that are important to you and your relationship?
I don’t think so.
If you find yourself lying all the fucking time to spare someone’s feelings, you aren’t a good match and it’s not going to last. IMO.
It’s fine to lie, and everyone does lie, but I think most of us still assume our partners are being pretty truthful about most things.
LW, I think you should tell him you are very disappointed he lied to you and ask him to talk to you about this. Depending on how that goes…good luck.
And guys, nasty, nasty stuff happens at some strip clubs. Let’s not pretend it’s all cool and clean because that’s not the truth at all. I’m just saying!
And I say this as someone who has gone to strip clubs, and even with SOs.
He lied to you. About something he knew you’d look at him differently for. And you do view him differently for this.
Are you sure that’s the guy for you?
And yes, there are plenty of guys who think it’s gross and degrading to women.
I like the sound of the intriguing man!!
My husband was not at all what I thought my type was…but I couldn’t stop thinking about him.
Amen to moving being great to avoid exes. That’s was a big reason that pushed me to move once and I’m so glad I did. Small town, ex with big weird feelings…it was a good choice.
I would tell him you’d like help in the form of him paying you his share of the vacation expenses.
I’m sorry Ale. Breakups are never fun.
Take some time and do some self care and reflecting after you’ve gotten over the hump. You are free to meet a better fit when you are ready.
