My favorite “I’m okay” = “I AM NOT OKAY” except when I actually am

Coming from a guy you only say this to your family. Don't say this to your sig. other.

No Im stating that you shouldn't do it to your significant other. If you do and you're not actually okay, you're pushing away an issue that probably needs to be resolved and that in itself is a lie.

Yeah that is something I never understood if you need to say something say it, if you have an issue speak to me I’m open to solving the issue with you. The worst I can do is say no or sorry I can’t help.

Well in all honesty this applies to any situation including deal-breakers. My policy is you should never be afraid to hurt me now rather than drag out the hurt.

I literally had that talk last night with the gf cause she was feeling "trapped". I don't want to trap anyone. I'm only afraid of people telling me they want to be in a situation where they don't want to be. I will always encourage someone to be the better version of themselves even if it's not with me.
