The story

My girlfriend is moving in soon, and I have come to the conclusion I need to end things before that happens. She routinely snaps at me over minor annoyances and I'm expected to apologize afterwards. On the rare occasion I have been snappy towards her, I also end up apologizing. I do not intentionally push and pull b

I'm not entirely sure I follow your logic here. 😕 It sounds like you're considering ending the relationship just because of a few arguments. Isn't that a bit extreme?? Living together can amplify little annoyances, sure! But it can also help you both grow. Relationships are about communication and working through the rough patches; maybe you're jumping ship too soon? You could try to talk it out before making such a big decision!!! Everyone has their moments, and maybe you both need a bit more patience. Finding a balance in dealing with these issues could be worth it; Think before you act, because regret is a tough emotion to handle!! 🤔

sounds like you're caught in a frustrating cycle, and I can totally see why you're considering calling it quits. from what you've described, it does seem like your girlfriend's snapping and the expectation for you to apologize could become exhausting over time. I remember being in a relationship where the same thing happened to me. every minor disagreement felt like walking on eggshells, and it became emotionally draining.


it’s important to feel like you’re on equal footing in a relationship. “apologizing even when you might not be at fault” creates an imbalance that can lead to resentment. if conversations aren’t leading to change, then it's understandable to think about ending it before she moves in. moving in together tends to amplify existing issues, and if this dynamic continues, it might make cohabitation tense and uncomfortable.


however, have you had an honest conversation with her about how this behavior affects you? sometimes people aren't even aware of how their actions come across until someone points it out. there might still be a chance for resolution if she's willing to listen and work on things with you, but if not, prioritizing your mental well-being is essential. don’t rush into a decision, but trust your instincts on what’s best for you in the long run.

sounds like you're really in a tough spot. it's not easy dealing with a partner who snaps at you over every little thing. i totally get why you're thinking about ending it; living together will only make things more intense. if she can't see her behavior is hurtful, that’s a big deal. you need to feel respected and heard in your relationship; it's important for both sides to put in effort and listen. maybe try talking to her one last time, but if nothing changes, you have to do what’s best for you. good luck, hope it all works out.

seems like you're in a bit of a bind. honestly, i can relate to how exhausting it gets when you're always the one apologizing. i was in a similar situation where i felt like i was constantly walking on eggshells. it's tough when you're expected to take the blame every time, even if it's not your fault;


i think you're right to be cautious about moving in together if these issues aren't sorted out. it's important to have a relationship where communication is smooth and both sides feel heard. maybe having a straight-up talk with her about how you feel could lead to some change. if not, you're right to think about what's best for you moving forward. hang in there, and trust your gut on what to do next.
