And you should have kept it up. Eventually, he will learn. It's not going to be a quick fix. You've taught him that being aggressive pays off. Now, he knows he only needs to do it for a week. You need to just stop buying them and deal with the consequences. We're trying to help, but your excuses are just causing you to sink more money into the problem.
You don’t think people have pasts (including your girlfriend). Also, to echo what many have said – she’s a victim of a crime. Maybe you should direct your energy into getting your girlfriend some justice instead.
you seem to think that the people disagreeing with you here aren’t aware of the harms of microplastics and just need more info when all they are doing is pointing out you cited a study claiming one thing but the study itself doesn’t prove that point.
I think you should just be honest. “I’m going to (great school). You can either come with me, or you can stay, but I am going. If this is where our paths diverge, I can honestly say I loved every minute, but I am not giving up on this dream. I understand if you aren’t ready for this step, but I am.”
I was in a similar situation many years ago. I have no regrets, and I’d pick my education every single time. My parents always said, “if it’s meant to be, it’ll work out and if it wasn’t meant to be, it isn’t worth sacrificing your future for”.
You overreact and project! The issue is not her “body-count”, the issue is her lying. So don't gaslight, what you're telling in your fake outrage has nothing to do with OP. Your analogy of forgeting 2 of your exes' last names have no context to OP's story. If you find out that your partner lied to you since the beginning of your relationship, I wanna see you telling yourself that you have to suck it up and get over it. Maybe you agree, one lie doesn't come alone, they add up.
You didn't get what OP was telling and are just projecting.
So what should I do to avoid any bad blood but also teach him? He is sooo stubborn
Yeah she should find a younger jerk huh

Hey if anyone is willing to take mine (29 male) I'll make you tacos. It's a steal!
Tell him you’re not comfortable with sketchy places anymore and that he needs to go a real place.
There is no reason for him to object unless…..
You’re 10 years younger so he won’t be keeping up. But in his 40’s he will all of a sudden be 18 again.
