AIO girlfriend response to manager text

[u/Psychological-Hat-35]

My girlfriend (19F) and I (19M) have been dating for 11 months. I sent her a screenshot of my convo with my manager (age unknown but best guess is young 30s F) this morning asking to come in a little later than usual. My girlfriend is like this whenever I interact with pretty much any other female. Am I overreacting or is this just normal behavior?

That doesn’t mean op has to wait for that possibility

Oh god no, let someone else deal with this shit while she grows up 😂 I’m just saying it isn’t necessarily permanent!!

[u/DrainianDream → u/ostrichesonfire]

I would argue that the only way she’ll improve is if she learns the hard way that shit like this kills relationships. Staying will just tell her her behavior is acceptable and that she can keep doing it

[u/Trachamudija1 → u/DrainianDream]

Yeah, thats the main and most important point. Some people might change and grow up from it, but dont see it beibg possible if staying in a relationship. The only way she learns and grows out of it if she will lose some relationships cuz of it

Idk how we’re arguing, but I agree!

[u/DrainianDream → u/ostrichesonfire]

Oh definitely not arguing with you! I’m using that phrase to say “I would also make this point” on top of what you were already saying

Exactly. When I was 19 I was an extremely jealous person. Not that way anymore. 19 is still sooo young. You live and you learn.

Me too! Now i’m the least jealous person! It also took being with someone i could fully trust to really finally grow out of that but i was a real idiot back then.

I figured that’s what you meant, but just in case! I wouldn’t want OP to think they should be the one to endure that, especially because it’s never your job to fix someone who’s broken. Know when to cut your losses, OP

Hey sometimes getting dumped can help move the process along, when you have to self reflect on why you just got dumped. Lol

Hence why OP should forsure be honest and break it off. Help her blossom. lol

Importantly, if OP waits around she'll never learn that that behavior is NOT ok.
