Guys help me
Apparently my bf is a grown man right? So then when I found out he's like uhh not taking care of himself properly like not eating etc...when we got together I gave more care. I mean when we were still friends I kept telling him to take care of himself and eat food. Am I controlling or??? Like he doesn't say he's not in the mood to eat but he says "I don't want to" with that uhh type shi emoji. We made a condition, if he doesn't eat, I'll block him or ignore him. If he eats, then he doesn't face those consequences. And then one day, he told me that sometimes he doesn't eat whenever I tell him to and he lies the fact that he has already eaten when I ask him. I didn't get mad...I felt like I was disappointed because all those caring, reprimands I've been giving him the time and care was like half wasted then?? AM I CONTROLLING FOR MAKING HIM TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF? AM I FORCING HIM TO BE IN A GOOD HEALTH? Or is it just that he loves getting my attention? I don't mind but it's getting annoying that the fact that he won't take care of himself and every day it just keeps repeating. I try my best to not block or ignore him controlling my anger....at this point am I taking care of a baby? I don't know anymore... because we just started being a couple. It's been a month only... I blocked him today to cool my head down. It felt like he wasn't making anyyy progress to be better. It's not like he's a very mentally unstable person, he ain't depressed either...and sometimes when I tell him to eat he says he's lazy to cook food. We're a long distant couple so I can't cook for him...

(I told him I would block him so he got the info beforehand that I WILL BLOCK HIM don't say that "don't just block him out of nowhere!! When WE made an agreement.)

    Hii! Okay soo I just wanna start by saying you are very kind and a caring by make sure your partner is well. I don’t think you are being controlling even though it might come off that way but at the end of the day, you do have his health in mind. Now, I’ll be honest with you and say it seems like they won’t change. I don’t know you both as people but if they lied to you despite you giving them an ultimatum, that can speak volumes. If they have an eating disorder then this is something they really need to fix but if this is for attention then I’d say don’t engage when they mention it. If they look skinner than before then you’ll know it’s an eating disorder because they likely aren’t eating a lot . If they were too lazy to make food there are fast food restaurants and there are cheaper food if they aren’t well off. Again I don’t know them as a person so take what I say with a grain of salt. But I definitely think you should bring this up to them and not saying you will block them because at this point they think you won’t but instead tell them that it hurts you that they’ve lied and aren’t taking better care of themselves. Also tell them that you feel conflicted because you want the best for them but don’t want to feel like you are forcing them to do something. If they don’t listen to you or care for what you say, it’s up to you whether you’d like to stay in that relationship and you shouldn’t feel guilty for not wanting to put up with that. But I will say if they treat you amazing and all then maybe you shouldn’t let this be the sole reason you both split. I say start with having a serious conversation and then move forward from there!!!

    Don't worry everytime I've calmed down, I always communicate w him and this will absolutely not be the reason we will break up. Thankyou, I just needed words to make a decision and what to say to him. I'll unblock him now because I've calmed down already.

    Also he treats me like I'm his goddess so don't worry about if he hurts me or smthI actually feel like I'm the one who's giving him the bare minimum.

    Plzzz you clearly care for him if you’re stressed about his well being. Only he knows if you aren’t treating him well enough and yall probably wouldn’t be together if he thought that. Keep doing what youre doing and if it’s working out im so happy for you both! I really hope you help him out. Maybe try going in call and doing a mukbang or something to help or begging him to try random foods cuz you want to see his reaction. Either way good luck ;p

    If you need advice I got you. Idk how but I got you

    You’re his girlfriend not his nurse. If he doesn’t want to get better, no one can do it for him. The more you’ll try to put all your energy for him, the less efforts he will do (cause you already give your all, which is enough for him). Also, the more energy you give him, the less energy you’ll have for your own self and at some point it will simply be draining for you to the point you’ll completely forget about yourself and even lose yourself. You can’t fight for a battle that is not yours especially when the one who should fight doesn’t want to win (or even fight). Sure, you can support him, but as I said, you can’t fight for him. There’s nothing you can do if he doesn’t want to want to be better. Don’t fall into this kind of trap. He might like the attention, because if you’re worried, it means you care and if you care, it means you love him, so every time you’re worried, he feels loved, so he might never try to make efforts since you need to keep on being worried (so that he can keep on feeling loved). People with mental disorders deserve to be loved but their mental disorders are their own responsibility and if they decide to be in a relationship, they HAVE to take care of it, as I said, it’s their own responsibility (having a eating disorder IS a mental disorder). It has only been a month, it’s not like you were stuck in this toxic relationship for years, you can still let it go. A relationship should NEVER be a burden.

    Some people are in denial. He might say that he’s got no disorders OR he might use it so that you pity him and keep on trying again and again and again until there’s no more empathy left inside you (it can take years). You might be fucked, whatever his reply is. Don’t trust his words, trust his actions and behaviors. You’re his girlfriend. Your not his nurse nor his mother.

    Guys lol he finally replied and I reprimanded him like a lot he still refused to express his opinion/thoughts because he's not good w words...anyway I told him I would leave him if he doesn't change and he made a promise he will take care of himself better. It's not enough for me, but ig I'll bear with that for now.

I'm definitely coming back here again for advice.
