As someone who was like this at one stage , it’s hell to live with the mindset of your relationship being your only priority. Often times I will see person who would spend their time reading and creating start only consuming their lives around their partner . All you will see them post about will be about their partner . In every conversation their boyfriend/girlfriend somehow finds his /her way into the mix . Many people will tell me “ you’re just jealous “ but in reality I am not . “ I love my boyfriend/girlfriend and your jealous “ by all means love your boyfriend /girlfriend but your whole life shouldn’t be just about him /her . What happened to hobbies and passions . It deeply angers me seeing influencers only post about their partners. For instance : piper rockelle . Every tv show is about dating and I’m so sick of it .

It’s very… weird. I agree. The obsessive behavior is weird.

I have my doubts.
I agree but that aint knew. There was a show called Friends and that was literally all about relationships.
These days? It’s always been that way.
if you’re in a serious relationship, it genuinely is hard to talk about your life without bringing them up.
It’s wild how some people enter a relationship and immediately uninstall their personality like it was an app taking up too much space.
This post seems only about women; where’s your condemnation of men?
Wait, Piper, the girl whose mom basically abused her and forced her to act for social media since she was 8? Maybe that Netflix documentary about her would shed light on why she is that way (I have no idea what she does these days).
All I post about is my partner. Nobody needs to see my book ratings, so I don’t post about what I’m baking or reading because that’s what I do alone. My boyfriend is just so ingrained in my life that it’s hard when I’m having conversations about my personal life for him not to come up. Like I was asked about my lego collection today. Well my boyfriend and I do those together, so he just naturally comes up when I show pictures of my lego collection and say I did that, my boyfriend did that.
It’s not that my whole personality is my relationship. It’s just a big part of my life and I’m pretty boring by myself.
