Background
-24 from UK. Been with 23 girls & have had 4 FWB’s, basically been having regular sex since 18 so I’m not some desperate guy who saw hot ***** and wanted to tie it down.
-Met girl in Asia in August 2016. – Christian/Virgin HB8/9. Shares a large room with her gay brother and gay cousin. (All these factors gave me immense security). Spent a month with her before returning home (didn’t ****).
-Kept in contact – I got a job with crazy hours so didn’t pursue girls (my rationale anyway).
-Arranged for holiday together in April 2017 – took her V which is the start point of the LDR. Honestly best 2 weeks of my life & met her family (who are amazing).
-However, did find out she and her best friend used to go on Tinder to find guys to go on dates with (basically for free meals etc) which alarmed me at first. To my knowledge she's been taken to at least 2 getaways (same country) in fancy hotels by 2 different guys and she even tried to drag me to a opening night at some dudes restaurant.
Its worth mentioning I handle the LDR better than her. I find comfort in focusing on myself and not dedicating all my time to calls or being available. She doesn’t handle it well all the time and can get needy and misses me way more.
-In Sept 2017 tried for her to come to UK. Visa rejected. Hated my work and hours, had money so quit the job to look for other jobs after the new year (graduate jobs typically open up Nov time here).
-Spent 4 ½ months travelling together (told her to quit her job, she had some savings aswell but I didn’t mind helping her). My parents flew out to meet her for 2 weeks – they love her and maintain regular contact (Video calls etc).
This is when arguments started. She got jealous over my old housemate (girl) messaging me. Admittedly, we had both flirted in the past and she send revealing pics but I genuinely believed that we were just friends (while I'm in a committed relationship anyhow.). Hated she was trying to dictate who I could and couldn’t speak to – I’m my own man right?
So she got jealous and insecure, would snoop whenever I was on my phone (not literally going through it herself). She found my nude collection in a special app – took adv of me when wasted. (Hilarious story when I think about it).
She snooped my laptop and found a similar nude collection buried deep inside my laptop. Would argue about small things and then make a big deal – needs to talk/cannot let it slip & ignore. During this ****ty period I actually was talking to the girl friend for advice etc. And I didn’t want to go to my friends which could skew her image if they met her.
Anyway the last month was great – happened to be spending a lot of time with her family – her dad and I get along so well and drink together.
Returning home in Jan 2018 I started to workout/ take online courses as I'd lost focus of myself. And I progressed to interview stage for some jobs. Struggled to land the career job I wanted, a lot of rejections and lengthy processes were demotivating after awhile.
GF has unwavering belief and faith that I’d get a good career and be very successful. Admittedly, I had a lot of self doubt and was running out of applications when a company I found really exciting with great pay and prospects got back to me for selection. Anyway I got the job starting this Sept 2018 (found out May) so decided to fly out to her and spend 2 ½ month in June 2018.
-This time round started badly when she told me not to bring condoms cause she’s gonna be on the pill – after a week of regular sex noticed she wasn’t taking – asked her and she said she has to wait for her period – plus she cant get pregnant at this time of her cycle. Refused sex with her out of resentment almost – cannot believe she was so chilled.
-Eventually back to normal – late period (she has history of them) she got pregnancy test which came back negative.
-Then she snooped my Snapchat and found pure filth in the conversation of one of my old FWB’s like a year before we even met. Argued about her snooping which I know signifies lack of trust.
-Noticed she was talking to atleast one ex-bf – her excuse is that she was asking for relationship advice from a western friend to help understand me (culture difference).
Sidenote – when we go to travelling every now and then she seems to message a western guy who she knows (I’ve used the term “used to date” and she never corrects me). To my knowledge she's been taken to at least 2 getaways (same country) in fancy hotels by 2 different guys and she even tried to drag me to a opening night at some dudes restaurant.
Then I happened to get a Snapchat from filthy convo girl (what's the ****ing chances?!) and she suspects I’m now talking to her again cause she saw her name on my recents list. Cleared things up but she doesn’t trust me fully and I don’t know why.
Discovered TRP 2 weeks ago and nothings been the same.
-Immediately have less patience with her ****.
-Notice a lot of tests she's throwing. She’s being needy and wanting attention (blaming times running out etc).
-My libido has gone to **** since discovering TRP – she’s constantly making moves but I just don’t feel it. Coincidently discovered TRP when was thinking about LDR. Pre TRP I had a plan in my head that LDR isn’t sustainable so vision was to marry next year so she can live in UK and we can live together. I realised that’s too much of a risk as we still have issues (Which we need time for) to iron out and believe me I really do want to try to change some of her ways cause when we are together generally she compliments my life greatly and would make a great housewife. Only option is fiance visa, very expensive (6 months – marry or break) and my mind is ****ed. I’ve spent all of my savings the past year some on myself but a significant amount on “us” so I’ve practically ran out of money now – and therefore freedom/options.
Anyway talked to her and aired my concerns – and my reinforced TRP beliefs and she agreed with most of what I was saying but seems to have this belief that things will work out – no matter how bleak what I was saying sounded. She's making more effort than ever and things have been great (starting to get libido back) since. I leave her country on August 14th and won’t have the luxury of more than 28 days holiday (of which I will only get two weeks consecutive). In Sept, I will start my new job which will mean I’m relocating some 300 miles and basically having a fresh start which I'm extremely excited for. However, I am moving to a relatively quiet town with not so much going on.
To summarise, I do believe LDR’s are a waste of time. But as you can see I have spent 7 ½ of the last 14 months with this girl. I have ultimate trust in her and her catholic faith, me being her first, her living with her brother and cousin gives me that extra “protection”. Therefore I believe this LDR isn’t the “worst”. It’s also worth noting that I am writing about all the flaws in the relationship and her behaviours – and you do not know of her amazing humour, culture, family oriented and kind friendly nature in which we have lots of great experiences, no doubt some of my best ever with this girl. And she’s adventurous and quite a natural in bed.
The reason I am posting here today is that I can no longer see whether I’m being a ***** or being rational. I am currently completely blind to the situation I find myself in, and so any advice to help me get my **** together is hugely appreciated.
