New to the Relationship Stress Community? Introduce yourself here!! ❤️

Hi! My name is tori. Me and my partner are trying for a fresh start after 5 months of seperation. I

My boyfriend is 17 years older than me and Im scared that Im unable to give him everything he will want before me (kids, marrage, etc.) we really do have something special together and I dont want to leave him, but I dont want to let him down.

Hello everyone, happy to have found this community. After a series of unfortunet events I have realized that I need some help with coping with everything that life has suddenly thrown my way. Hope everyone is having a great day

Hi, So I've never been in a true relationship in my life when it comes to the 'romantic' type, mostly because of my own emotional damage and fears, but I want to one day, but I know I need to get in a better place for that. I am hoping to find support in this because right now I am two halves battling, one side saying "forget ever meeting the right person so don't even try" and the other half saying, "You are worth more than you think, don't worry so much on the future and being hurt is apart of life"

I have cared for people but either wouldn't say anything until it was too late or would push them away until one or the other get hurt, but I also don't attract the best guys either and I think it's because of how I view myself. So yeah, I'm working on it, haven't had the best examples of healthy and positive relationships so I'm hoping someone out there has had them and give me some hope that I can have that too one day

Hi everyone

I had few bad experiences and now I'm sure woman want relationship not for real love but for something in exchange in my cases:

Economic security

Successful sex

I'm feel so bad

Hey there.

My names Kaitlin Im 21 years old and I just recently got broken up with my boyfriend of 3 years. My friends and family tell me he was abusive and that I should move on however he wants to be friends and possibly have a relationship in the future. He dumped me on Christmas because he said my mental health was too much to handle and that when I got better maybe hed be with me. The confusing thing is he still acts like my boyfriend and wants every privelage of being my boyfriend without having the commitment of being my boyfriend. He lies and changes stories all the time. He told me for those years I was crazy and making it up so I started writing down everything he said to me and referencing it later on and I could physically see the proof of him lying to me constantly. Now that I dont live with him anymore I feel depressed and confused and like I dont know who I am anymore.

Hello, everyone. I'm WishfulCrow, I just signed up today.

I've got a handfull of good friends, but we've all moved away from eachother over the last few years so I no longer have any local ones, so it gets lonely at times.

Also as much as I'm looking forward to the day, I haven't found a romantic partner yet... I'm non-binary and asexual, as well as introverted, so that makes it hard. I haven't even had my first date yet, at 23.

Also, I have an online friend that I've been feeling lately might be bad for my mental and emotional health, but I'm not sure what to do about it... I'm very confused. I try to always be there for someone when they need me, but this is becoming too much.

I suppose I'm here to clear my head, maybe hear if anyone has any advice, and to meet some nice people. :3

Hey everyone!

i joined 7cups on February 11 2019 because I decided it was time to take control of my life again. With my dads passing in September 2018 I have unresolved emotions about our relationship. Growing up in foster care for 10 years I still feel the abandonment daily and struggle because I crave stability in every part of my life. These issues from the past affect my current life and relationships with my boyfriend , friends , and family. Hoping to find some healthy tools on this site to find some clarity and hope.

Hi everyone. My name is ana.
