Hello, dear landlord!
I totally get why there are some issues between the host and her boyfriend. It's so sad to see how she's feeling.
Hey there! I just wanted to share some interesting findings from a scientific study I came across. It looks like the average shelf life of true love is around 18 to 30 months.
It's so interesting how love is actually made up of the brain chemicals dopamine, phenylethylamine, and oxytocin!
It's like a "chemical cocktail," but it's not like old wine that gets better with age.
But, as time goes by, our bodies will start to produce antibodies to this substance.
After about two years, it either ends or turns into a habit.
After seven years with your boyfriend, it's always been a first love, which is totally normal!
Oh, you know, last year I found out that he was flirting online.
He promised he'd never do it again and also gave me something really special.
The poster and her boyfriend have been through seven years of ups and downs. Maybe she thinks it's become a habit?
But with her boyfriend, she might be feeling a bit tired of the same old routine.
So I thought I'd try reactivating dopamine in my brain by flirting!
Of course I still like him!
But you know what? When I talked to him recently, I realized that we have different ideas.
Guess what! Last night he taught me how to manipulate men.
And we had a lovely chat about what kind of woman men like.
And how a woman can make a man increasingly unable to live without her!
And that a girlfriend should flirt a lot!
While her boyfriend knows that flirting doesn't solve real problems, he still hopes that his girlfriend can provide him with the dopamine he craves.
And what he's saying is exactly what he wants. This doesn't mean you can blackmail your boyfriend for being
It's totally normal for people to be attracted to new things and seek excitement.
It's just that whether you two can make it long term together depends on whether your values are the same.
And then there's the question of whether the original poster should change her style to cater to her boyfriend's needs.
It really depends on what the host wants.
I'm sorry, I don't understand.
I just want to make sure I'm clear that I won't manipulate him.
I just don't understand why two people have to do all this weird stuff together!
A woman is usually happy to make a few changes for the one she loves.
For instance, a girl who doesn't usually dress up much might start dressing up for the other person.
A woman who is known for her loud voice suddenly becomes a little woman in front of the person she likes. It's so sweet!
It all depends on what style the other person likes. Of course, you're willing to make changes for them within the limits of what you can do.
Maybe this is what love is all about!
As long as I think of him, I'd be more than happy to do it!
If, in the process, the original poster feels that it's not you and you can't do it,
Then, just keep your own style and talk to your boyfriend about how you feel, sweetie.
At first, your boyfriend was really into the original look of the host.
If it has changed, then you can only accept the reality and not force the other person. It's okay, we all change and grow!
At the end of the day, a good love means accepting the imperfect other.
I just want to wish the original poster all the very best for the future!
I'm so happy it's June! I love you, world!

I feel really confused and a bit hurt by what he's trying to teach me. It seems like his advice is more about control than connection, and that's not what I want in a relationship. Love should be honest and open, not about playing games.
It sounds like he's suggesting some outdated ideas about how relationships work. I believe in mutual respect and genuine communication between partners. If he thinks manipulation is necessary, then maybe we have different views on trust and intimacy.
I'm starting to think that maybe our values are drifting apart. The idea of having to act a certain way to keep someone doesn't sit right with me. Relationships should be built on authenticity, not pretense. I wish we could just be ourselves with each other.
This whole situation feels off to me. We've shared so much history, but now it's like we're speaking different languages. I don't want to learn how to play games; I want us to find a way to understand each other better and talk through our differences.
