The story

alright, this might sound a bit crazy, but last week i had this massive argument with my boyfriend. i mean, things got pretty heated. we were saying things we probably didn't mean and honestly, i thought that was it. like, who needs that kind of drama every other day? no thanks!

so imagine my surprise when not even a few days later, i overhear him on the phone with his buddy talking future plans. we're talking the big stuff like moving in together or whatever. the wild part was he totally seemed to assume i'd be there right by his side in those plans. now i'm just here scratching my head wondering if he's planning some long-term game or if his mouth was just running faster than his brain.

now it feels like i'm getting all these mixed signals thrown my way from him. one moment it's all good and we're chill; next, everything's upside down and confusing again. am i overthinking? maybe! but with how things have been lately, who wouldn't? seems like he doesn't want to break up even after what happened.

but here's the deal: it's hard to get a read on anyone when they can't keep their stories straight for longer than two seconds. emotional ping-pong while charming at first gets exhausting real quick. so folks, what does everyone think... is staying optimistic the foolish move here?

sounds like he's just not being upfront with you, maybe it's time to sit him down and have a straightforward convo so everyone's cards are on the table because constant mixed signals can drive anyone up the wall.
