The thing she said about "don't go into a relationship with someone who doesn't want kids and think you can change them" is spot on. Too many times people sabotage the child free partner and force a pregnancy. It goea for both genders. If they say theu don't want kids, and you do, take an honest look at yourself to see if you can be OK with that, if not, move on. Forcing someone to ha e a kid they didn't want is selfish and hurts not only the other party, but the kid as well.

Im probably too young to be considering this but if I ever wanted kids I’d rather adopt, in part because dang there’s a lot of parentless children out there and I want to bring them the same comfort and protection I feel with my parents, and also cause I’m deathly afraid of giving birth 💀 this whole discussion about kids has made me think differently about knowing the wants and goals of your partner in a relationship and how important it is to let your priorities also be known.

You bringing up the different style of approaching conflict made me feel so much better about myself. In my life, I only ever have arguments with my brothers, he’s my one constant source of conflict. He’s told me over and over again that whatever we’re feeling in an argument, we need to talk it out now, or else we’ll bottle it up and it’ll be worse later on, and I hate how he forces me to talk about it. You bringing up how some people need time to process, and even how if you force the conversation to happen, they could shut down, that’s exactly what happens to me. Whenever he and I have those conflicts, and he forces me to talk it out, I begin to shut down and it only makes him more mad and everything gets worse. Hearing a therapist talk about how the way I handle conflict is real, and that I’m not just being difficult, makes me feel so much better about myself, that I’m not the problem. I’ll have to talk to him about it

One of the issues I had with my ex-boyfriend is whenever we had an argument, it would take me time to process what I was upset about, word it properly in my head, and then respond. I would always try to craft my response without invalidating what he was feeling because sometimes I was in the wrong, or was trying to understand how he felt and explain my feelings. He HATED it because I would just be tense and it would take me 2-3 minutes of trying to think of what to say while he immediately knew what to say. I knew that if I rushed it I wouldn't be able to say how I felt things properly, or I'd end up saying something that hurt him. When she said that it's always important to give the person time in a fight or argument when there is an issue, I was like THANK GOD it's not just me.

This is an incredibly nuanced scenario where people keep seeing it as right and wrong. 1. He knowingly violated her trust and took advantage of her 2. He lied saying can vs won’t relying on her ignorance (which is covered in point 1). 3. Bc of these violations she sought revenge on him 4. She violated his trust through revenge 5. Neither of them were communicating and only considering what they wanted through manipulation 6. Consent between married couples is still an incredibly new thing in the eyes of the law. In many countries it’s still not legal. It’s never been right, but it is important because taking into legal action draws more eyes to the topic and opens conversations about what is consent btwn a couple. This fictional show takes place over 200 yrs ago. 7. Ignorance of an act is a very real sticking point here. If it wouldn’t have been considered assault m-to-w then it wouldn’t have m-to-w. Yes, today’s lens it was assault. But also with today’s lens there’s forms of bc and she would have known how pregnancy happens. So you have to look at the picture as a whole. They BOTH physically assaulted and emotionally manipulated one another. They are both in the wrong here.
