Aita for thinking my my girlfriend is delusional.
AITA for thinking my girlfriend is being delusional for constantly accusing me of looking at other girls?
So I (m, 20s) am losing my mind over this pattern with my girlfriend. She keeps accusing me of “looking at other girls,” “being distracted by other women,” or “checking someone out” when I’m literally not doing anything. I’m not flirting, I’m not staring, I’m not even thinking about anyone else. Half the time I don’t even notice the person she’s talking about.
It’s gotten to the point where I feel like I’m walking on eggshells in public. If a woman exists within a 20‑foot radius, I’m apparently guilty of something.
At first I tried to reassure her. I told her I’m committed, I’m not interested in anyone else, and I don’t want anyone else. But it keeps happening. Every time she thinks I glanced somewhere, she assumes the worst.
And here’s where I might be the asshole:
I’ve started getting angry when she accuses me. Not yelling out of nowhere, but snapping because it’s the same accusation over and over and it’s not true. I feel attacked for something I’m not doing. I feel like my character is being questioned constantly. And honestly, I’m starting to think the accusations are delusional because they’re so far from reality.
She says the fact that I get angry “proves” I’m guilty. But I’m angry because I’m exhausted and frustrated, not because I’m hiding anything.
I don’t want to be mean. I don’t want to hurt her feelings. But I’m tired of being treated like a cheater when I’m not even remotely acting like one.
AITA for thinking she’s being delusional and for getting angry when she accuses me of something I’m not doing?
