Providing for your girl should not include her whole family

People really don't read just go "that's the culture".

What kind of a fantastic culture where you need to provide for the whole family if you are a man, but only if you are foreign. The native men there can have no means of providing, in some cases jobless. But they are allowed to spawn in as many kids as they want. That is normal by their culture?

But within their culture it's the responsibility of the foreign guy to pay for everyone else's bad choice? How convenient

If you can't afford a child and need to rely on your sisters boyfriend for help, then I have a solution.... don't have a child.

Ladies, how much effect does your period have on you?

Some of my friends are very insensitive to their girlfriends when on their periods. But not me, she tells me she is in pain, I will make her food, try to come from work early and ask her if she needs anything else like a warm bath. She does house chores as she is currently unemployed, but when she isn't feeling well due to her period, I will do the chores after work.

But she's giving me a very hard time on an emotional level and she says she's like that during her period. I have 4 sisters, they didn't ever have "mood swings" from periods. But idk maybe it varies for each woman, that is why I am reaching out.

So there's the "do you even love me" which is fine. But lately it's been getting worse. I come back home from work and she is in bed, I ask her how her day was "miserable", I ask if she wants to eat anything "no". A few more one word responses later I just figure she wants some alone time. So I go watch some TV, next morning she is crying that I don't even try to talk to her anymore. I ask how am I supposed to talk tk her if she only replies with one word? She said that if I wanted to then I would have found a way.

Last month my co-worker was letting her brother use her car for a week. I told my gf well in advance that because of this I will be dropping my co-worker home, she had no problem with it st the time. Then I come back home 20mins later than usual "where were you".I say I was dropping off my co-worker, she hits me with "good for you and you didn't inform me because you are having an affair?". I told her she's acting crazy because I did tell her about it and she's now accusing me of cheating.

She got very upset that I called her crazy. I told her that she's accusing me cheating over nothing, why am I wrong to call her crazy for that? "Well I can't control my emotions during my period, but you don't have to be mean to me"

I find the whole experience mentally draining. It's like we are the perfect couple until she has her period. Then she can say anything she wants to me, but I can never say anything back.

Now her period just finished and she says "I was too harsh on you, but I can't control it". So not an apology, just saying there's nothing she can do about it. But is it really the case? Or is she just using her period as an excuse? I try to be understanding, but I really feel like she mistreats me when is on her period.
