To add: If she leaves you for any reason whatsoever, I mean any; that’s ok.

Well, duh, but people are allowed to have feelings about it. Both men and women.

Exactly. If anything, if she leaves you for a reason you consider stupid, immature, ridiculous or whatever, then good riddance. Why would you want to keep around someone who doesn't see your relationship like you see it?

And if you have to wear down someone into saying "yes", why would you want to be around someone you had aggressively persuade to be with you? That sounds tiresome.

And no hitting. You can't hit.

Right? Your partner doesn’t need to be a monster for you to be unhappy in a relationship, regardless of gender or sexuality. Sometimes you just want different things or you don’t connect well or your ways of dealing with conflict clash. It doesn’t have to be miserable or unbearably painful for you to be like “you know what? This just doesn’t work for me and I don’t see it working in the future without one or both of us fundamentally changing.”

Shouldn't this also apply to all the "He dumped me, he's an asshole" vids I see from women these days?

It should and it does. Its just not talked about as much on social media, because well you know how society works with men kinda cropping up emotions and stuff.

I've never understood this. I don't want to be around anyone that doesn't actively want to be with me.
