@scalingstories: u/PantWearer123 My girlfriend of six months has completely changed, starting to criticize my clothes and my job, even calling me useless and stupid, and I don't want to be around this black hole of misery any longer. Plus one update. 0:00 Original Post 5:08 Update (1 Week Later) #scalingstories #minecraftparkour #reddit #redditreadings #redditstories

crybaby :

She definitely has a certain idea of the bf she wants and is mad OP doesn't fit that image

TwinkDestroyer420 :

Scalingstories just to let you know, you’re my favorite account ever. Please don’t go bald.

Jess :

Let me say, as someone who was formerly in a DV situation, it starts just like this. He made me get rid of anything he “deemed” childish(including band tees I never got back) , it’s a means of control

=(^.^)= :

he needs a alternative girly

isa 🦇 :

damn now i have to form my own opinion im so early 💀💀

wren🦋 :

he's so nice. she was probably ashamed of him because of his job. im glad they're not together

lurc :

she saw him as an accessory, not a partner

Pookie🇹🇹 :

Bro sounds so pure and innocent😭 hope he finds someone who matches him

ivegotaheartonfire :

i think this would have escalated into emotional or even physical anuse from her, i'm glad he got out when he saw the first red flags

liquid :

I will say, bro should work on his confidence, just the way the gf went about it demonstrates she really doesn't care about him. A 6 month relationship isn't worth the drama if you're already noticing red flags.

cranberryhellokitty :

when op said he doesn’t dress like those emo/goths dancing under the bridge i cackled 💀

mmhtwin1 :

I was so sure OP was a teenager. But 30, and facing these red flags only 6 months in? That should have automatically been the end of the relationship. I hope OP has a great life and they don't have to face any more hard changes 🖤.

OutlyingOkapi :

Icon behaviour 😁

Hayden :

that was definitely going to turn into a controlling and abusive relationship and his anxiety would have sky rocketed. im glad he got out of it, good luck to him

wanred61 :

When he explained why he wore the band clothes and her answer was to not talk to him for the day, end it then and there, nobody who refuses to communicate is worth being with.

mar :

dude rowley

harpyAna :

she just finally felt comfortable enough to try to change him

Lukas :

ugh OP sounds like a teddy bear. girlfriend when I find you😤😤

AuroraRose :

GF is 100% in the wrong. OP is happy with his life choices and isn't hurting anybody. She saw the clothes he wore and the job he had when they got together. She could have made an educated choice back then, but chose to waste everyone's time instead.

🦊 :

So she wanted a project but was mean about it. its good that he took good lessons from that relationship tho, bc while you dont need to get rid of your nostalgic shirts as someone in their 30s you need more formal clothes for certain life events, and also guy should ask for a raise

Alfredo Sauce :

Poor guy

non_cat_people_dni :

she doesn't want to date him. she wants to make a new guy to date.

Jessica_Anderson3714 :

he's literally so nice

shaniaarnold332 :

Tell her to come outside, I just wanna talk. But seriously, she was abusive and was only going to get worse. Good on OP for getting out
