Relationships ultimatelyrequireopen and honest communication, but thats easier said than done.
After all, it can be hard to talk about someones faults and even harder to admit your own.
For better or worse, telling the truth can make or break a relationship.
But certain topics are often a lot more touchy than others.
OP later shared an update about what happened and netizens discussed who was actually in the wrong here.
Some folks chastised OP for not bringing it up earlier, but truth be told, its more complicated.
First and foremost, he himself argues that it took him a while to notice.
Its also not a topic that can be broached easily.
Most people do, at a certain level, understand that we have bodily autonomy.
If a person likes the weight they are at, there is nothing someone can really do to them.
After all, we are free to handle our own bodies however we see fit.
Indeed, if yourpartnerstarts to make requests of your body, you might want toleave themimmediately.
In this particular case, this couple doesnt have kids to manage.
They arent bound by something bigger to make the relationship work.
We as humans change all the time, indeed, it would be a tragedy if we didnt.
Its worth adding that a relationship is aboutlearningmore about your partner.
Sometimes we make assumptions or have expectations that we talk ourselves into.
Many couples fall into the trap of believing that their partner knows everything without communicating it.
The result is both miscommunication and resentment when a persons real behavior no longer matches their partners imagination.
So OP perhaps should have considered his own attitude.
Its best to break up and allow everyone to just move on.
