His Girlfriend Has Said That Nothing Makes Her Happy Except For Him, And He Feels That This Is A Crushing Amount Of Responsibility To Bear
A guy is currently in a relationship with his girlfriend, and although he has his own life outside of her, she has basically made him her entire life.
And although he enjoys spending time by himself, it never really works out that he has any alone time, as his girlfriend will constantly ask to come by, and he doesn’t want to offend her by telling her she can’t.
On top of all of this, his girlfriend has made it very clear to him that nothing makes her happy at all except for him.
“When she’s not with me, she has literally said in her own words, “She just lays in a dark room and waits for me,” he explained.
He is in love with his girlfriend, but carrying the burden of being her only source of happiness is proving to be a crushing amount of responsibility for him, and it’s also getting to be exhausting.
“I really love her,” he said. “But her need to be with me coupled with her deep-rooted insecurity and anxiety makes it so she lashes out at me anytime I don’t want to spend 24 straight hours together.”
One of the most recent incidents that outlines his girlfriend’s insecurity and need to be with him involves a family poker night.
His family was getting together to play poker, and even though he did ask his girlfriend to come, she said she didn’t feel comfortable going with him.
She mentioned that she felt that his family hates her, which they don’t, and he tried to reassure her by saying she had not a single thing to be insecure about.

He then said it was alright if she really wanted to stay home while he went to poker night, and she insisted that he should go without her.
So, he did go to his family’s poker night without his girlfriend, and it appeared to be a trap.
“When I did, she blew up at me for leaving, going so far as to say “we’re done” because I abandoned our date (I came over for dinner and a movie, and we had finished both),” he continued.
“I knew “we’re done” didn’t mean anything, but I was ready to be done with all this after that until she called me crying like, “I’m sorry for everything. I’m sorry, I’ll change. I shouldn’t get mad at you for spending time with your family. I’m sorry, I’ll go to therapy and get better,” and I couldn’t. I ended up letting her stay the night after that, even though I wanted to be alone.”
His girlfriend then threw it in his face during that argument that she chose not to go on a family trip to visit her newborn nephew, and her reason for doing so was that they could have the house to just themselves.
She used that example to tell him that he should have skipped out on poker night. Well, he replied to his girlfriend that she should have gone on her family trip to see the baby, and that infuriated her.
“How can I be expected to make sacrifices because she chooses to sacrifice things for me that I would never imagine asking for?” he wondered.
Do you think this relationship is doomed?
