r/boyfriends

My boyfriend is an absolutely wonderful person who I thought clicked very well (hobbies, morals, goals..) with myself but ever since they moved in 2months ago I haven’t been able to move past how their smell lingers even when they aren’t there.
At first I thought maybe it was because he lived with all guys and they didn’t clean well. I have washed all their clothes back-to-back, used oxiclean especially on the high scent zones (neck, armpits, groin), added arm & hammer deodorizer in the closet, sprayed his shoes with another type of deodorizer, bought an air purifier, and more.
This is a person I have convinced myself I am going (or was) to marry and have kids with after 3years of dating, but I can’t imagine living with this smell for another 60-70years and have lost all sexual attraction to them. Any advice on how to nicely bring this up to them, other things I can try, or is this an end all type problem? Any help is appreciated.

I’m currently staying at my boyfriend’s parents’ house while waiting for the move in date due for our new home and their main bathroom is being renovated. The only working toilet is in his parents’ ensuite, which means I have to go through their bedroom every time I need to use it.
I did mention before I moved out from mine that I could rent somewhere short term before we can move , but he invited and kinda insisted on me to stay at his parent’s.
My boyfriend keeps telling me that his parents don’t mind, and I genuinely believe him. But I still feel incredibly uncomfortable entering their bedroom, especially in the middle of the night when they might be sleeping.
I’ve told my boyfriend several times how uncomfortable this makes me, but his response is always that his parents don’t mind.
I even suggested I want to stay in a hotel temporarily, or get a portable urine thingy but he thinks it’s a waste of money.
Tonight, I desperately needed to pee but felt too embarrassed to go into his parents’ bedroom. I ended up trying to pee into a sanitary pad in our room, which obviously didn’t work. It leaked onto my clothes and I felt so humiliated that I almost cried.
I know this probably sounds ridiculous, but I just want to be able to use a toilet without feeling anxious or uncomfortable.
I don’t even know how long the renovation is going to take.
I’m not blaming his parents at all, and I understand that renovations are inconvenient for everyone. I just wish my boyfriend would take my discomfort a little more seriously instead of repeatedly telling me that his parents don’t mind.
Am I overreacting? Would you feel comfortable using your partner’s parents’ ensuite in the middle of the night? What would you do in my situation?

I genuinely love my boyfriend so much I can’t even explain how much I love him I honestly think no one could ever love him the way I do in his entire life and I genuinely mean it I love every single thing about him like EVERYTHING I love his hair it looks so good all the time I love the shape of his lips his cute nose and his cheeks I literally start drooling all over myself when I see a pic of his biceps or abs like how am I supposed to act normal when he looks like that and he’s literally my husband I love his voice so much I could listen to him talk for hours and never get bored I love his smile his eyes his hands and even the smallest things about him that he probably doesn’t even notice himself I genuinely think he’s the most attractive boy ever and sometimes I look at pictures of him and wonder how I got so lucky
And plus he’s a perfect boyfriend he always tries to be understanding and nice even tho he’s not really the type to demonstrate his feelings he still tries his best and I appreciate that so much I feel so comfortable with him and I feel like I can genuinely be myself around him without having to hide anything he makes me feel safe and loved and I honestly can’t imagine being with anyone else he’s my first and last love he’s all I want and I genuinely wanna get married to him and spend the rest of my life with him

For context we’ve been dating for 8 months now f18 and m19 and he has an old phone too that he uses for an alarm I’ve gone though that phone before and his regular phone and in the past I have found stuff like his exs private pictures he kept and ss of girls instagram he took while in our relationship I forgave him for that but a month or 2 ago I told him my previous guy friend texted me and I responded and he was obviously upset about that because I had hid it because I was afraid of his reaction and that he’d be mad an accuse me of cheating even though the conversation was completely innocent I should’ve just told him and showed him the text messages instead of deleting them because that made it seem like I was hiding something more well after that he’s continued accusing me of cheating and to help prove my innocence I let him go through my old phone big mistake he went back and went in to my previous backed up photos and found inappropriate pictures of me and my ex from when we were m/f 16, I’m f/18 now but he had saved them and sent them to him self and when I asked why he said to be mad at me he had previously unblocked my ex to go through the saved in chat and saw old pictures we had sent eachother in the relationship when we were 16 I was upset he had saved those pictures i felt like he had taken it too far I asked him to delete them and he said he did but he didn’t and he put them in his my eyes only I went on his phone and changed his my eyes only password and it deleted everything that was in there but I’m still afraid he has those pictures and on top of that I tried to change my phone password but for the first 24 hours the old password can be used to unlock it so he got in it and changed the password and now I can’t get in to my own phone and he also locked it in his safe so I can’t get to it on top of that last night I went to go see my friend who just had a baby and he gave me attitude about it I genuinely don’t know what to do anymore this feels too controlling. Am i insane for thinking that? Is this relationship too toxic?

my boyfriend (13M) and i (13F) have been in this relationship for like about 3-4 months. and yeah im pretty young. but literally i’ve given him everything he has ever asked for. i’ve given him 50 dollars (because he asked) + bought him snacks every day for 3 months. (and 25 dollar robux) but i don’t know. i feel like he doesn’t do enough effort. it’s fine if he doesn’t buy me gifts and stuff. i don’t really care about that. (i kinda do but whatever) it’s just that i always text him first and not to mention him only dating me because he felt bad and didn’t wanna reject me. (he told me that he started having feelings for me too after a few weeks of dating) what should i do..im sorry i didn’t really give enough reasonings.

Hi! I'm a F/22, and he's M/22. We've been together for about 3 years already. My boyfriend wants me to unfollow like literally EVERY GUY on my Instagram, and I honestly don't know how to feel about it.

I'm willing to compromise and unfollow people he genuinely feels uncomfortable with, but having to remove EVERY SINGLE GUY from my following list just doesn't sit right with me. I feel like that's a bit excessive and controlling. What are your thoughts?

For context, my following list has been the same for a long time. I haven't followed anyone new ever since we became serious about our relationship.

I (F23) keep getting nagged by my bf (m24) of five years for sex whilst I’m sick.

I have told him repeatedly I don’t feel well enough too, I took the whole week off of work except for Friday as I feel so crap, working Friday set me back though.

I’ve had a really sore throat and his birthday was on Thursday, he was saying to me we can do other stuff apart from a blowjob, but I don’t want to do anything!

Today is Sunday and this morning and Saturday morning I woke to him cuddling me but putting his hands on my boobs or waist. I said to him both times if he’s trying to have sex I’m not interested and can he please just let me sleep. He got dressed and walked off saying ‘are we ever actually gonna have sex’.

He also has been saying stuff like ‘do you actually love me’ and I feel so pressured by him but most of all I feel disgusted that he thinks he has a right to my body when I am 1. Not wanting to have sex and 2. Unwell.

This isn’t a question it’s more so a rant sorry!

Im [21F] has a potential bf who is [23M].we re talking for like 2 months now

As the title says, whenever I smoke up, I just stop liking him. his voice irritates me and his smile feels fake. I feel bad that i feel that way at the moment, but I can't help shaking the feeling. What should I do?
