It sounds like it did.

Of course. At least we know who the alpha is now.

39 your photo looks like you could be the next over obsessive girlfriend. When I read this fml I read it literally. Should have been a paper view week "Girlfriend Beats S*** out of Boyfriend for one week straight!!!"

Hahaha well that is yet to be determined. As far as I can tell lol

If you're not winning at the relationship, why bother keeping it going? You need to take the power back instead of whining about it on FML.

Or she'll leave him.. But maybe that'd be better. But who knows?

She'll want to get married? Ya control for ever

Yeah... This girl is nuts.

Sounds like a new Taylor Swift song in the making.

He shouldn't be happy if she's that manipulative!

I agree with DrunkButterfly, it seems more like manipulating his feelings when it suits her needs to get her way. That's not love, not in my books anyway.

how can you be happy with someone who controls you, you will have no control to make your own decision and even maybe feel like a kid.

BDSM?

I understand what you say, but OP said she did this last week, not that it is a weekly occurence. When you're fighting, you might say - and mean - that you will end the relationship if things stay as they are. I find it a warning rather than manipulation if it happens once, in a specific argument.

I agree with you on that one. My recent ex was exactly like that. In the end, he dumped me because his mother didn't like me. -.-

11, What you say makes sense, and I'd agree with you generally, except for in this specific situation, only because OP's girlfriend admitted that she threatened to dump him "only to frighten [him] into submission," You can bet your bottom dollar she'll do it again.

Yeah, but how long did it take for him to start telling you that? They have been together for four years. It's also possible OP was being a jerk, and she said it so he'd realize it. That would also be trying to make him submit to what she wanted. Submission isn't always a bad thing. He should break up with her if it looks like it's going to be a habit, or was for something stupid. FMLs don't have enough information for you to really know either way.

I'm sorry...am I fucking missing something here? Is there a reason that you still desire to be with your boyfriend?

Brah, not using the reply button. That shit isn't tight.

I like how your comment goes so in depth to help me understand what's going on in the OP's head. Just the way it was writing is phenomenal, have you ever considered writing a novel?

That's the title! "Whoa" by Stop There.
