What should I do?

My boyfriend wants me to start coding and take over his old job. I dont know anytging about coding. He said im just "making excuses to not put in effort or take risks". I have a decent job that I like... the other one just pays better. Hes making me feel like shit for not wanting to take the other job.

@LittleCreates he forced me to learn a bit... but its massive and I just ended up confused...

Force wont help learning, relax and try it...
@LittleCreates Why should she have to, if she’s not interested ?

@LittleCreates Why? She's already said, she is happy where she is. She has no interest in coding. If she leaves her current job to try it, and hates it, she's lost the job she enjoys to satisfy some guy who doesn't care enough about her to accept her as she is.

@LittleCreates She did try it. Didn't like it. So why have you decided she should try it again? To please a man who has no respect for her?

Well i was just saying randomly that just try it in spare time, not saying she give up her job or so... And then she will have upper hand on that guy that see i told you.... So it will help

@LittleCreates Better to just dump him.

And I'm not the only one who believes this.



There are many who feel as I do.

Well i wont suggest that, its the couples decision, she just asked about coding and all, and i wont suggest separation unless i know more about him and her.... I dont rush to things anymore now...

@LittleCreates You must have missed something.

Read the last sentence again. He's making her feel like shit for not doing as he wants her to do. And her telling him, straight up, isn't good enough. He calls it making excuses. He is showing a complete lack of respect for her, and he's trying to control her.

Yes. To stick with him or go, is ultimately, her decision, but....she asked the question What should I do? my advice is to escape him. He won't change. He will keep trying to mould her into what he wants, instead of loving and respecting who she is.

Unless of course, you think she's lying about how he's treating her.
