Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:Jeff summary: I hate my girlfriend because she is extremely sexy and kind I actually totally get part of this, because my mom does it too. She'll always make small talk with service people, and I always feel kind of awkward about it because I'm sure at least some of them don't care for it, but they always have to appear polite due to their job. It's not annoying enough to be an actual problem, though. The rest of the stuff though just reeks of insecurity. Her virtues make him closely examine all of his own flaws and he's taking that feeling and making it her fault that he feels that way.

quote:She's not a kiss rear end. But I don't really care about having conversations with random people that won't mean anything to my life. And yeah, I feel like she does get taken advantage of. She's smart, she's just too generous. And say I marry her, will she be generous all the time, to people I just really don't care about at all? That doesn't sound like a good marriage to me. I think the fact that people like this exist and thrive is either a symptom or cause of the downfall of society.

Khorne posted:Plot twist: The girlfriend wrote this post to mock her boyfriend. The fact that this felt infinitely more likely to me than that it was meant sincerely means that I am also not nice enough of a person to date this girl  Seriously though, I'd believe that someone could feel inadequate enough next to a really nice person that they end up resenting them for it (see: Homer with Ned Flanders) but you'd think halfway through typing it up on Reddit to ask if it's worth dumping her over, the self-awareness would kick in at least a little like, you'd think he'd at least know enough to make the final question "how do I get over this" rather "should I dump her y/n"

There is so much vile, selfish poo poo in the world. I don't know why you'd want to degrade or resent one of the few truly good people in your life unless you're just extremely ashamed of your own rotten self and can't stand to exist in that kind of contrast.

Ah yes, the ol' raging insecurity manifests once again in the form of 'if that loving whore'. Edit: this is about the guy who has a girlfriend that's just too nice. I think I dated that guy. He screamed at me in a parking lot for giving a twenty dollar tip to a waitress on our first anniversary because I wanted to make someone else feel happy too. I no longer felt happy after that.

I used to be super nice to everyone I met and talk to random people and look at name tags and call people by their names and stuff and my ex wife resented the gently caress out it. She'd tell me everyone knew I was being a fake rear end in a top hat and stuff.

I'm starting to think that she needs to be with somebody more similar to her, and I need to be with someone...less intense maybe. I hope he does a follow-up post.

His concern that people would take advantage of her kinda pissed me off the most: she built her own successful business and managed to stay an excellent human being in the process. She can probably read people better than this schmuck can.

Guy with the nice girlfriend: I guarantee all her friends and his friends are telling her to dump him. I know this because my brother in law seriously undervalued his incredibly kind, sweet fiancé that everyone adored. She was just so amazing and he would publicly criticize her and put her down, and in return everyone, and I mean EVERYONE told her to dump him.

What loving temperature are you cooking meat at, because I think it's probably way too low. Even super slow cooking methods call for temperatures well above anything you're going to see in nature.

Please don't start the temperature debate again! The problem with the dude in that post was that he wanted his girlfriend to change for him, but wasn't willing to change himself. If it wasn't temperature it would've been something equally as asinine down the road.

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:I know I'm speaking from a place of privilege but drat, people are so weird about money. It wasn't about the money at all--it was about spending the money on people who weren't him. I'm going to jump off that guy with the too-nice girlfriend because I'm actually familiar with his kind: He's not annoyed she's nice, he's jealous that she's nice. There's a type of person who sees not just love but kindness as a limited resource. That makes the choice of who their partner is kind feel incredibly fraught, because, to this mindset, they're essentially committing emotional infidelity. Combining this with anyone who is genuinely unusually compassionate, like his girlfriend is, and they can't handle it. They also usually don't know why they can't, or can't articulate it--or do know how to say what they feel, but they know it's inappropriate. 'I feel like my girlfriend is emotionally promiscuous' sounds crazy even to crazy people. This is just compounded by her being attractive: not only is she emotionally available to anyone, she is physically desired by many people, and he already thinks she's incapable of distinguishing between people emotionally. Basically he feels like she's capable of abandoning him at any moment, and he punishes her for it consciously or unconsciously. On the other hand, if she was horribly face-mangled in an acid/blunt trauma accident and became a cynical dick afterwards who was slavishly devoted only to his happiness he still wouldn't be satisfied, because his need for love and affection is so all-encompassing and deeply rooted that it can't be reasonably fulfilled by another human being. At least that's a theory of mine!

Yes, it's clear in the paragraph about her niceness combined with her good-looks getting her a lot of attention from men that he is very insecure. Secure people tend to not really care about whatever attention their partner is given as long as the partner acts appropriately about it which it sounds like she is. He is probably one of those people who need to feel superior to their partner in order to feel secure in the relationship. Since she is clearly an accomplished, attractive, generous person with a lot going on, he is drowning in his self-doubt. He should start mediating or therapy or something to get him to understand himself better.

The difference between a record high in Phoenix and the inside of a big green egg should be more than 57 degrees. The difference between "better being a jacket" and "it's kinda hot out" should be more than 10 degrees.

His GF has a successful business, is apparently Model Hot and is a Good and Nice Person. Where do I get mine? I'll appreciate her. I have a GF, she is no model, but she's sexy and nice, but does not own her own successful business.
