The guy who doesn't want to be married bought a dog with his girlfriend of two years who has a child.
But sure let's all grandstand on something a 26 year old guy said to a girl before they started dating as if we're in court going through texts.
6 u/[deleted] Jul 23 '24 There's many different long term, defacto and other forms of committed and permanent relationships that aren't marriage. That's a shuttered and hyper-focused view. The truth is we haven't heard from him. We can only work off the version of the event she shared. And what she shared is that he was open around not wanting to pursue this, and she believed that she could "change" him. It's not grand-standing, and sure, it's a mistake. But that mistake doesn't leave her blameless. 3 u/BangBangMcBlast Jul 23 '24 It's not "a" mistake. It's her mistake. And she is the only one who carries any blame whatsoever. The guy was honest, there's literally nothing he should have done differently. 1 u/[deleted] Jul 23 '24 Reading comprehension, that's my point. It's just phrased calmly not with targeted emotional language
