Boyfriend emerged 4h prior to wheels up on romantic vacation, wtf?
I’m on a 5 day vacation to puerto rico with a girl, we slept together twice prior (last time last Wednesday) and have known each other for a couple months. We had agreed not to sleep with other people but I’m assuming that’s out the window as “she was still single” so it’s fair game. I’m going through a divorce from a 7 yr relationship which is why she didn’t want to date, she knew from before day 1 & convinced me to take off the ring after my ex had left the house for over 40 days. She let me know 4 h before wheels up on this trip she’s dating someone, apparently happened sometime last week. Still came on the trip. Sharing a king bed room. We’re in an airport now in the way.
She’s got a fucked up past (abuse and stuff), may be an alcoholic (8+ drinks in 1 night, <100 lbs), said she doesn’t know how long she’ll be dating this dude, and doesn’t seem super enthusiastic about it. I.e when I was saying I was up for competition she said she wouldn’t break up with him by text, would have to be in person. Specifically said she doesn’t like guys being controlling or jealous and said she’d dump him if he was (re: the trip). We had a boundaries discussion (no kissing, sleeping in bed together, hand holding or sex) which makes sense (if anything does). I was falling hard prior but this is weird af. WTF is going on and what is my life now? Please help. Any insights appreciated. Thank you kind people.
Tldr: Why she go on 5 day romantic vacation if you just got a bf?

What are your thoughts on me calling him? Me 34(f) him 44(m) known each other about a year.
Tl;dr I’m calling someone several times a week with no response and wondering if this is excessive. Friends with benefits relationship. Reasons for concern.
For the long story: I met this man at work when I started March of 2023. He had worked there as a janitor for 7 years. I started in overnight stocking. July we started snap chatting but after a few weeks he deleted his account. I no longer use mine either.
Beginning of August he didn’t show up to work. After a few weeks of overhearing another janitor worried about him, the janitor gave me his phone number. I texted and called once or twice but no response. I knew from our past conversations where he lived so I walked by sometimes late at night. One night he saw me, had me come back to his apartment. We made out. Talked. Went for a car ride. Came back to my place. Made out. He said he doesn’t really have any friends. He hasn’t made love in 11 years and was something he rushed into or something like that, sounded like a regret somewhat. He fiddled with his ring finger and I got the impression he doesn’t believe in sex outside of marriage. I don’t remember when we had the conversation about hallucinations but he has seen angels and demons and believed he was an angel. This gives me reason to think he’s schizophrenic. He has an old flip phone that doesn’t receive texts and he’s very shy and introverted like me - why we really connected. But he does have an Apple phone for pictures. I sometimes question whether he was honest, but I do know I have my imessaging on and other Apple phones have that. It never says sent or delivered when I text, it just blips into nothingness.
So another month went by, I think. Or maybe it was only a week at first. And he called me up and asked to come over and hang out. This was September. I was hoping we’d be in a relationship at some point. I don’t remember if we hung out in October. Then the holidays went by and he didn’t call me until January. I had written a couple letters by then but he never wrote back. January came and he talked quite a bit about his family and his trauma.
I forgot to mention why he quit - he had attendance issues and was sick that day and assumed he’d be fired anyway. So all this time he has been unemployed. Going into debt. I’ve wanted to help him and he doesn’t really want help. I sent a couple small gift cards in April. I bought him groceries in September.
February he came over because his apartment sewer backed up and made it seem like he wanted to move in with me. We made out for like the fifth time.
March came and he apologized for making out with me, said he wasn’t trying to make me his girlfriend so he felt bad about it. I took that pretty hard. And now I haven’t heard from him. Still in March he was unemployed, seeing a demon in his bedroom, traumatized by his family. It’s so hard to wrap my head around the situation. He doesn’t know love and acceptance and I feel like maybe I’m smothering him with it. Maybe not, I’m just self conscious because it’s hard to believe he might have the feelings for me that I do for him. Obviously he told me he didn’t want to be with me. “Not trying to make me his girlfriend.” The past ten months roughly I’ve been in love with him. Or at least I care very deeply. I think about him all the time. I’ve probably sent about 5 letters. I’m doing what I can to be there for him but I’m aware he isn’t there for me. He’s just isolated. Self isolating. He might come around again, he might not.
I call every few days, sometimes twice. I sometimes leave a voicemail. I don’t want to be excessive. I notice he turns the phone on and off so he’s still there. I’m always telling myself to move on but I can’t stop caring.
Will things change for the better, possibly? Maybe he finally gets a job. Maybe that resolves some confidence issues. Or maybe he’ll qualify for disability. Maybe he learns to trust me and gets therapy for his family trauma. All I know is I can’t just drop someone who seems to need help.

My girlfriend (F29) is upset and doesn’t respect me (M26) anymore now that I eat meat.
At the beginning of the year I opted to go vegetarian, I had never tried it and was open to the experience of it. My girlfriend whom is a vegan was obviously quite happy about this decision and encouraged me to try it. Fast forward to the beginning of May when I took the personal decision to once again eat meat due to personal reasons. Currently I am feeling a lot of anger, disrespect and hatred from her to me for choosing to eat meat again. She has openly admitted to ‘no longer respecting me’ and that I am being stupid for choosing to eat meat. The kicker was the peer pressure I feel from her to return to being a vegetarian/vegan, she would say along the lines that ‘if I respect her I would remain a veggie’. What should I do or say to this? I cannot have a normal conversation with her without her becoming upset, crying and ending the discussion or as she sees it an argument on her terms always. I feel completely belittled sometimes and judged every single time I eat meat. I love my girlfriend and we have a great relationship. There has never been a serious problem before and we both had tremendous respect for one another. I want to get back to this way and not let this current situation fester into something awful down the line. Any advice would be great, thanks all.
TLDR; my girlfriend shows a lot of anger and disrespect now that I eat meat again and am not longer vegetarian.

Advice for the next step
Close to the start of last month me (23m) and my girlfriend (21f) broke up. It was completely my fault and I did repeated actions that had caused problems before. This was my first serious realtionship it lasted 1 year and 3 months. A few days after she asked if we could still be friends or at the very least fuck buddies.
Well yesterday was my 24th Birthday and it was horrible. The conversations with people just coming to a standstill and being left on read/ sent. Hurt so much I haven't felt this alone. To make matters worse the day prior I had got back home from taken my ex on a 3.5 hour drive to her new job and helped her unpack (I had offered). The state of the staff living were horrible. So I don't blame for asking me to help repack her and driving her home. I don't think trip was a waste. I felt so good spending almost 2 days with her alone.
But to go from that to feeling so alone and having being left on sent for 24+ hours now on top of how I was already feeling really sucks. I reached to my friend of 19 years (23m) and told him about how lost and alone I felt. The worst part is any notification I get washes this feel dread and isolation untill I see it wasn't her,The feeling just gets bigger. At least other people messaged even if it was just happy birthday
I know that she's alive at the very least I cause I can see her actively play a game on steam then when she leaves it idleing on said game
TL;Dr 24m and 21f broke up a month ago spent over 24hours with her the next day on my birthday I feel like everyone ghosted me especially my ex who wanted to stay friends/fwbs

Can't tell if I (25f) love my boyfriend (22m) anymore, what do I do?
My boyfriend (22m) and I (25f) have been together nearly 2.5 years. I was madly in love with him until maybe about 6 months ago. I've been questioning my love for him & our relationship. It wasn't that much at first but the past few weeks it's become an every day, all day thing. I can't tell if I love him. I don't like saying 'I love you, too' when he says it to me.
We've had discussions about this several times. He is still really in love with me and doesn't want to break up. I don't want it to end either, but I don't know what to do. I still find him physically attractive, but I don't want to have sex with him at all. We've had sex problems throughout our entire relationship. I used to always want sex and he didn't, and now it's the opposite.
I just want to feel how I used to feel. I look a old photos and remember how it used to be and it's what I want so much. It's hard to pinpoint when it all started going wrong. I have a lot of mental health issues though and I can't tell if that's the main problem.
He's a really good guy who treats me amazing, but he is socially awkward and that's probably the biggest issue I have with him. Sometimes I see other men who are better at talking and I crave to be with someone who can be like that. But then there's SO much about my boyfriend that I do love and value. I think I can be really critical of other people and I can't tell if I'm just being overly critical and if I need to just accept him for who he is.
We live together though and I think that is also making the issue worse. Sometimes I really just want space from him and that's something I can't really have. We moved to a new city together and neither have made friends yet so we only ever hang out with each other. Plus we live in a studio apartment so are always in the same room.
If we lived apart I feel like I'd suggest having some space for a bit, but that's not something we can just do in this situation. But then it's not that simple to just move out either.
Sometimes I have moments where I feel like he is the one for me, but then other moments I want it to end. Just don't know what to do, but a huge part of me doesn't want it to end.
TL;DR Been with my boyfriend 2.5 years, the past 6 months I've been questioning if I want to be with him. Sometimes I really want it to end but sometimes I really don't want it to end. I don't know what to do.
