The only person that I feel understands and gets me is my bf. It makes me feel awful, like some sort of pick me girl, but that’s how it really feels and I don’t know why. I feel like I can’t have as much of a connection with others, even my best friend.

I am honestly crying because I feel like a piece of shit for this. Is something wrong with me? It’s not like I don’t care for my friends. I don’t know what’s up. I just feel such a safe space with my boyfriend.

I am trying to do so more. I don’t know why exactly, but I feel like I can’t be willing to open up as much with friends. At the very, very least with a committed romantic partner, I feel as if I have an OBLIGATION to open up about everything, because I feel like that can affect a relationship (fyi: I always feel safe and comfortable to be myself with my current partner, so never really obligated!) I guess I don’t want to be anyone’s “tea” or reveal any “mess” with my life or seem too weird?

that's completely normal to be deeper with ur relationship, but if u wanna open up ur friendships to talking more about emotions and deeper things that's fine too!!
