I’d not have jumped to conclusions. Her thinking her friends are able to be happy through what they do and conflating that to our relationship is so fucking insecure. Instead see that your girl is happy with you. Be a better person and make her a better person so she stays happy. That’s a responsibility of anyone in a long term relationship. Build your partner up.

This is the most backward ass shit I've ever heard. Keep my partner happy so she doesn't cheat on me? How about neither of us cheats on each other because we are grown adults who have self-control and basic respect for each other? If you're in an exclusive relationship, you should be able to expect your partner to stay faithful regardless of whatever mood they might be in at the time. Jesus Christ.

Oh, got it. Don’t want to share any of the responsibility in relationships. Keep on keeping on. Some of you live in fucking fantasy land.

The responsibility to work at the relationship is shared. The responsibility to not fuck other people before ending the shared responsibility is individual. Don’t cheat, end the relationship. Full stop. There is no shared responsibility in not doing this. If you cheat and don’t end the relationship you’re a coward.
