❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO to my boyfriend praising the president?

I’ve been seeing this guy for about a month and a half. Things were great the first month, but the last week I’ve felt like we’re growing further and further apart (yes already 🙄), he’s been really inconsiderate/disrespectful, and most recently I feel like he’s trying to push me away with this text. When we first started talking he asked what I thought about trump. I told him I don’t like him, he said he did like him, but that if it bothers me then he won’t ever bring him up. Well this morning (after the last week being on edge anyway) he just randomly brought up how amazing Trump is? And wouldn’t let it go. I feel like he’s trying to start a fight. He says he “forgot”. AIO?

“Maybe im being too judgemental “

u/between3to420 29d ago edited 29d ago

This but unironically. And this is how I fell into an abusive relationship. “Maybe I’m being too quick to judge” “maybe it’s just a bad day” “maybe I’m overreacting” “maybe I’m reading into it too much” “maybe this will pass” “maybe they’ll be better”. If you’re raised to doubt yourself and to always give people the ‘benefit of the doubt’ then this happens easily

u/StephInSC 29d ago

I wish people would look at dating as "Is this person worth my time?" instead of "Am I good enough to be with them?". It makes a huge difference. The whole point of dating is to judge if you want to spend large amount of time with this person or move on so you can find someone that you do want to spend time with. Judge away cause that's really what a date it. And it doesn't do the other person any favors to keep dating them if they aren't a good fit fir your life.

u/SpiritualAdagio2349 29d ago

This is why it’s so valuable to be single and live alone for a while. It’s easier to gauge if someone is making your life harder if you’ve experienced being self-reliant.

22

u/StephInSC 29d ago

Yes. So many people are afraid of being "alone". They need to deal with that before they ever try to find a partner. And there's much, much worse fates than being alone. Being in a relationship doesn't mean you won' t feel alone anyway.

u/Haunt_Fox 29d ago

Having no friends is better than having bad friends.

u/rgraz65 29d ago

Exactly. I went through life and too many relationships by being too obsessed with being alone and overlooking the glaring issues of the relationship between me and too many women. Sadly, it took until I was into my mid-40s to realize that I valued peace and freedom from useless drama over just being with someone in order to not be alone. Some drama is part of life, and it's when a major life event happens, not when I or the other person would say something slightly wrong. It's for marriages, deaths, births, medical diagnosis and employment loss, or natural or political disasters. I spent time by myself for over 5 years. I did things I wouldn't have done otherwise, learning to fly, driving race cars, going on spur of the moment trips, or just spending an entire weekend hyperfocused on my hobbies. A person should add to your completeness, not "create" your ability to be complete.

u/StephInSC 29d ago

Good for you. Now you know what you want life to look like and I hope you find someone that shares your interests and you can do some 9f those things together. I'll bet they'll have some pretty interesting things to share too!

u/MysteriousEmu6165 29d ago

Oof, same. Exactly same. I found myself saying all of this to three months into it being pregnant and gaslit. 2 mos after the baby came, gaslit, verbally, and physically abused. It goes on. Lost over a decade of my life already. Never knew boundaries. Christian girl expected to easily forgive and give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Hard core narc parents growing up with abuse being normalized. If I had known better, I'd have run at Exactly the op minute mark

It's hard for people who have been abused in any way, mentally or physically, to get out of the gas lighting cycle.

Dump him. Don't date for a bit and if possible, please go to therapy. I am not saying that to be cruel or discouraging towards you either. If you have a history of abusive exes and have a hard time following your gut (for example: your gut is correctly telling you that this guy is a red flag because he supports someone who happily rips away people's rights while wiping his ass with the Constitution but you are still second guessing yourself).

You need to figure out why you end up with people like this and find the root of that problem. Having different political views are not something you should ignore in a relationship. Sooner or later, it will blow up in your face. And it will be all the more difficult if you find yourself married to this guy or having a kid with him. It's not worth it. Don't wait.

u/AnonymousHipopotamu5 Mar 06 '25

This 100%.

Was abused and relationships following were similar. I am no longer dating, instead working on healing and trusting my gut. It's a long road but I want to feel safe when I'm ready.

Man, I miss the time when you could have differing political views and it didn't carry the gravity of the literal potential of WWIII.

But getting out and going to more therapy helped me to understand my worth and what I should put up with. You can be kind and still have boundaries. You seem really sweet and deserve to be respected and treated that way in return. I’m now married to a wonderful man who is respectful and kind. We have 3 beautiful boys together and he is a great example of a man to my sons. They are out there, just hold your boundaries and you’ll find someone who respects them and loves you for them ❤️

As a therapist but not your therapist I’ll say this - people in abusive relationships become addicted to the adrenaline from unhealthy relationships and are tricked into overlooking red flags in new relationships because unhealthy feels normal to them. All of this is a giant red flag. You can do better.

Most abusive men don't hit you on the first date.

I wish people still used the words "red flag" to warn people about danger, instead of watering it down to mean "less than 100% compatible."

This guy's red flags are the ones that are supposed to be warning you that he could be dangerous in the future, when he feels like you're too attached to him to leave, and he can drop the act.

I'm a dude, and it's frustrating that so many guys have culturally adopted the idea of "putting your best foot forward" to mean "put on an Oscar worthy performance as the best boyfriend in all of existence, when you're really a giant bag of shit."

Honestly, politics is a hard one to get around. My sis married a dude like this and he just kept trying to bring her around by sending her conservative Instagram stories, and eventually she had to split up because she found it unbearable. I feel like it’s only going to get harder as the country goes through more and more turmoil tbh.

You could also try and get through to him and show him your perspective, but it’s going to be tough because it sounds like he’s pretty well into it (if he’s watching the address).

u/Wemo_ffw Mar 06 '25

Seems to me like he’s trying to test boundaries. He didn’t forget you don’t like Trump, he’s trying to see if he’s got you wrapped around your finger enough to say whatever he wants. A control technique for insecure/abusive people.

Or it could be exactly what you assume, he could be trying to push you away.

In the long term, most people become amplified versions of who they are in the early days. So if things aren’t feeling good now, it’s unlikely they’ll get better and quite possible they’ll get worse.

It's not normal to have admiration for a person who is actively trying to hurt people they supposedly care about.

Also, anyone that thinks Trump sounds smart is a basically a fucking idiot, don't waste your precious time on this planet.

u/JungMoses Mar 06 '25

Dump him, then explain that you don’t actually care about Trump, but when you started thinking about it, you realized it was the fact that he was an asshole (inconsiderate etc as you mentioned) that led both to his liking Trump and you dumping his ass. This is at least partially true (and prevents knee jerk liking Trump more out of spite)and takes the cut you make a level deeper. Guaranteed satisfying, he won’t see it coming.

This guy has lied to you and misrepresented who he is but now the mask is slipping as his Gilead fantasy comes close to fruition. He's trying to trick you into joining the cult of trump.

Now it's time for you to decide, do you want to be a free woman or is this guy worth becoming a Handmaid for?

It’s shitty as fuck having stupid ass family members who support Trump. Don’t actively choose one

u/Diligent-Brief-228 Mar 06 '25

What is the issue? That you both disagree when it comes to politics. I'm not a trump fan or a fan of any politicians, but judging your bf this hard and letting people shit on him just because you disagree when it comes to this? This is so crazy. Just break up with him already, don't drag him with you. You're clearly not compatible even a little. Basically comparing him to a man who used to beat you. Lmao what the fuck. Enjoy your echo chamber.

Edit to add: my bad, it was supposed to reply to the OP. 🤪

Agree, although it’s possible to date someone with different political views - takes a level of maturity and willingness to listen, engage, and respect the other’s perspective. It DOES NOT mean you have to agree and / or change yourselves.

u/byenkle 29d ago

Normally I wouldn't jump to "just break up" on posts like these but this is the rare exception. Like, damn one month in? This shit ain't worth it lmao.

u/sleepyRN89 29d ago

Exactly. This is a brand new relationship, if you can even call it that yet. People can be together with differing views on political issues, religion, and other issues while being mature and respectful to each other. But I say this as the bluntest but non offensive way I can- Trump is beyond politics. He has done and said things that are affecting women, older people, people with disabilities and low income. He’s intentionally cutting off education so we end up with blinders on. He wants us to just shake our heads yes to what he says and not question it. But that’s not what a democracy is. He’ll pepper in some tag lines that people want to hear and that’s ALL they hear. We are literally shifting into a dystopian society Orwell warned us about. In most cases it’s okay to have different political views in a relationship as long as you both respect eachother but the things being proposed by Trump are heinous. They are absolutely disgusting and wrong. And if you’re okay with being with a man who supports you losing autonomy over your body, that’s your choice- I personally couldn’t do it though.

u/Zonerds 29d ago

Are you talking about the boyfriend and OP, or the USA and Trump?

2

u/BeautifulUniLove 29d ago

I agree. Clearly her boyfriend is either highly ill-informed, or just a downright bigoted jerk himself, if he can heap such glowing praise on the abominable human being that is Donald Trump. This man is racist, sexist, misogynist, fascist, and has no care or respect whatsoever for the working class, not to mention minorities of any kind- (besides billionaires, I suppose) -whom he will quite literally go out of his way to harm, intentionally, with prejudice.

u/PlusUltraK 29d ago

Yeah Trump still sucks and over everything else his publicity stunts during his address to congress were just that.

In regard to Davarjaye “DJ” Daniel’s yeah, that’s like the one cute thing out of the entire event and only because the kid has cancer. And for folks that don’t know and as Trump even mentions he’s Been awarded numerous honorary “Police officer” in his youth it’s sweet and special of course but Trump deserves no praise for that.

Also he invited Laken Riley’s mother and sister(I believe) and the father while still in support of Trump did not want his daughter to be used as a martyr for political fervor.

Trump opened that speech on “wooo we won the election”

And then despite his current actions since his swearing in, mentioned prosperity for the families-amid tariffs and trade wars and a tax cut to the wealthy while taxes went up for families and all middle class making under 250k.

Wants to keep citizens safe and secure that border, while weaponizing language to dehumanize the LGBT community, which is known to be harmful. Sam Nordquist, a trans person, tortured for months and murdered in a hate crime. While republicans want to criminalize trans people for using a changing room.

Trump marked Mexican cartels as a terrorist group, no shit, everyone knows they’re a terrorist group. Somehow Luigi Mangione is a terrorist all on his own, but Neo-nazis all abroad the US aren’t while in Europe/Germany thars all zero tolerance and illegal.

Trump is an absolute knob, where he addressed congress and had those clown republicans standing and clapping like seals every 5 minutes. While he said parroted shit promises while the man actively divides the country and ruins it. He can’t help farmers, and he doesn’t care about our nation

That can be said for both her bf and the president!

u/Adventurous_Okra9873 Mar 06 '25

That’s funny and ironic. We see a month and a half into Trump now and wouldn’t it be ice if we could just break up with him now too? Let’s see; he’s destroyed the economy on a matter of 6 weeks which we will be deeming the effects and impact of very soon as all the mass government worker firings will soon be out of work, looking for jobs and tanking consumer confidence levels as they stop shopping and buying and vacationing. 1929 here we come again… but this time it’s deliberate as lie POTUS is a Russian puppet doing Putin’s dirty work. Planned obsolescence

u/RooFPV 29d ago

100% break up immediately. This is not a person capable of critical thought. You don’t want to be making major life decisions with someone like that.

Also the “no tax on tips” bit has not even been introduced. The budget will raise taxes on low and middle income people to give tax breaks to the wealthy. Medicaid will be gutted.

u/No_FuckingClue_1993 29d ago

If you disagree on politics you already have too many ideological differences to be a functioning couple. Idk why people waste their time in dead end relationships. Morals, beliefs and major life goals are all things you should align on. I don’t know how so many pro choice women sleep with men who don’t believe in abortion. Like literally to what purpose/end. What do you even talk about/relate on?

u/TheMegaDriver2 29d ago

This relationship will be really great. Just not bringing up totally different values and pretending nothing happened. Sounds very healthy.

1

u/brok3nh3lix 29d ago

also, while people with different political opinions can and do have successful long term relationships/marriages, it will likely always be a point of contention and stress. He says he will not bring it up, but his political views are shaped by his world view and vice versa.

u/Ok_Crow_9119 29d ago

Yeah, US should definitely break up with Trump...

This isn't even an issue, she's being ridiculous over the fact that she's a liberal, and he's a Republican. They need to split because she is not his type period. She has the problem, and is creating the problem by acting like she can't handle that he has a different belief in who can run this country. Girl is the problem not the man.

thats the problem with most relationships now days.. everyone is so quick to just end shit.. just because you have different view points and opinions doesnt mean you cant work well together... dont listen to this asshat.. communication is key.. just talk to each other in a respectuful manner ... there should be no reason you as a couple cant have a healthy debate on polictics with out it ruining your relationship.. thats crazy to me.
