Youve got problems, Ive got advice.
This advice isnt sugar-coatedin fact, its sugar-free, and may even be a little bitter.
Welcome to Tough Love.
I simply want to give you the tools you should probably enrich your damn lives.
If for whatever reason you dont like my advice, feel free tofile a formal complaint here.
Now then, lets get on with it.
After New Years, it was her resolution to stop smoking weed, but she quickly changed her mind.
I feel like its killing me
every time
she does it.
She could not even talk to me after smoking the last time.
I asked her to choose me or drugs, and I have yet to hear from her.
She normally waits a few days to respond, but theres only so much stress I can handle!
And she claims Im stressing
her
out with my rules.
I feel as if Im being manipulated, but I love her so much Id do anything for her.
Could she be taking my love, time, and trust for granted?
Should I block all contact information, move on, and handle myself?
I feel as if Im walking through this blind and shes being as belligerent as possible.
Did you go into this expecting her to change for you?
Were you under some weird assumption you could fix her horrible non-addiction to a non-habit forming substance?
Its not her duty to make a run at squeeze into the mold youve set forth.
She just doesnt fit.
So you decided to propose… Wrong move, dude!
You dont like who she is, so you ask her to marry you?
That doesnt make any sense.
Doubling down is not how you fix problems in a relationship!
On top of that, your proposal was an ultimatum, and a pretty judgmental one at that.
Instead of a sweet, romantic gesture, you offered her some kind of plea bargain deal.
Like youll forgive her for her transgressions if shes willing to live under your rule.
No wonder she hasnt responded yet.
Nobody wants that, even if you mean them well.
Both types of people are totally fine, but they rarely mix well.
Im thinkin thats your cue to move on, not push harder.
Also, you clearly have some control issues that are worth addressing.
Some of them will be a good fit for you, and others wont.
