Edit: We’ve been together 6.5 years, live together have pets, rent all that shit, and have obviously been through really good and really tough times. An emotional affair on my part from her pulling away both emotionally and physically a few years ago (not proud of it, still quite ashamed actually) and apparently I’m using weaponized incompetence as to why I cannot aptly do certain things. Not cleaning properly, (she and her mom used to do at home cleaning services so I’ll never be up to the correct par of her cleaning) having a hobby she hates (golf, I was a big skater but have moved away from that over the past few years) not having a job she likes (I’ve been running our local skate shop the past three years, about to step into a caddy position here in town to make some real money and still be around something I’m passionate about). Not trying to give myself excuses just adding some context. submitted by /u/patprika
