I liked his “all she does, [lot of stuff]”

She must be feeling really really, appreciated.

So, to recapitulate: (apologies if something is omitted):
she gives him silent treatment over a doughnut...then she threatens to leave him because he got confused in a quarrel and left...then she says they could have an open relationship so she could find a better boyfriend. Then after a bit of negotiation, she's agreeing to get married tomorrow. And on top of everything, she gets a watch, which she requested - i suppose for her meritorious service, since she's not helping financially.

it amazes me how some people can get away with anything.

I noticed that too, good point. She also works in addition to that I think, right?

No. All she does is buy my groceries, cook for me, clean my apartment and drive me around.
Alright so she IS doing something for you. She's basically playing the role of Wife and she's probably expecting you to make it official. Maybe rightfully so, seeing as how you let her move in so quickly (remember that was your decision - you could have said no to that too).

You are in quite a pickle, my friend. You need to decide what it is that you really want.
I don't mind getting married, I just don't want to do it so soon. I told her that.

After a year isn't so bad. I told her I don't want to get married the next day.

I know! In some ways she's very nice but she either doesn't communicate or she doesn't communicate in a way that I can understand.

Yeah! How does she get away with all that?

If i got this right - you don't want to be alone, and people generally speaking prefer staying in bad relationships since they've already put a lot of energy into it....and discarding it all would mean it was all for nought.

And you're not sure if you can find anything better....and whether you even have the energy to try anything new...and you know her more or less, and it's very easy to come up with a lot of different excuses for her behaviour, since you care about her.

So this is like an inertion issue - the energy required for something new exceeds the amount of energy needed to preserve this....and she's nicer and kinder if she gets an expensive watch :P so, that watch seems like a cheap price to pay for keeping the status quo and for keeping your girlfriend. that's just my guess, open to correction.

Nah Booya that is exactly the situation with Retrogamer, and actually serves as a good example for Kip.

My prescription for these guys:

2 pills per day, one in the morning and one at night.

And if girlfriend humiliates you on that day, take one extra at lunch time.

yes, but he won't listen. i thought if it'd come from someone else it might have a bigger impact.

and after four years of repeating the same stuff it's getting old.

I could think of some reasons but you'd say they're excuses.

Indeed. I'd say escape this relationship as soon as possible. I think this is an abusive, toxic situation for Retro.
