Ltr mad about a political party I supported in the past. Where do I go from here?

Text important conversations again, and you’ll get banned. Text is for logistics only.

The first fuck up wasn't that bad. "You don't want to know" is not DNGAF but it's not entirely cringey either. Better answers would be just to tease her with "none of your business" or "can't remember" or jokingly insulted "I can't believe you would ask me that, what are you, the thought police? Who'd you vote for?"

The second fuck up is a lot bigger with the “my past political support isn’t who I am today” because now you're trying to qualify yourself to her like a wriggly worm who has to conform to her superior political beliefs.

What you need to do is "pressure flip" where you throw it right back on her and say something like "I didn't know your love was conditioned on adherence to a particular political party's platform. Are you saying you won't love someone unless they vote for who you tell them to vote for?" Or something like that. "What kind of a Nazi are you? That's terrible that you would try to manipulate our love for political purposes." (Make sure you don't sound serious.)

Pressure flip would also be "I voted for (Trump, Jill Stein, The Communist Candidate, whoever it was) who'd you vote for?"

Regardless of what political beliefs you have (if any), you need to make it very clear that you're totally comfortable with who you are and whatever you believe and couldn't care less what anyone thinks about your political beliefs (especially her). Make sure to be good-natured about it though. What you don't want to do is defend or explain yourself (DEER) to her. You don't have to justify your voting to her. Just don't act like it bothers you anymore than if she asked what brand of tires you bought in 2016. Michelin? Goodyear? Who cares?

Anyway, don't take it too seriously. Tell her you WILL tell her who you voted for but only if she dresses up in a black leather costume and whips it out of you. (Or something). She should be the one taking politics too seriously and you should be the one who just thinks she's being silly.

The worst thing you can do is act like you're afraid she'll reject you for your political beliefs and suggest that you'll change yourself to appease her.

First conversation

Her: “who did you vote for?”

You: “ X “ (who you voted for)

Conversation over

Second conversation.

Her (on text): “blah blah blah”

You: Ghost

Problem - You are terrified by your wife.

Solution - Lift, sidebar, and STFU until you are not

SteelToeShitKicker · 2020-01-06T01:45:25+00:00

It's pretty obvious you voted for Trump, and the proper answer would have been something along the lines of: "The winner. Now run along before I start wearing a red hat around."

But you did none of that. You wouldn't tell her, then you basically apologized for your vote. Judging by your insanely weak actions, I'll go one further and guess that you have changed your political beliefs to please your gf. It doesn't get any weaker than this.

I'm afraid to tell you, but your sad weak lifts in the gym aren't even close to how weak your mental state is. Do you cry yourself to sleep at night if she gives you a disapproving look? Sidebar is to the right.

RStonePT · 2020-01-06T16:52:10+00:00

Grab her by the pussy

HeckleandChide · 2020-01-05T23:06:57+00:00

I'm gonna guess that when y'all fucked for the first time after Date 14, it was with her using a strapon.

mrpthrowa · 2020-01-06T00:23:35+00:00

In my time here I've never been so stunned I'm beyond words. Where do I begin. "texts me to leave". Jesus. "my past political support isn’t who I am today", fuck me sideways. "you don’t want me to answer that" FAARK. You're like a gift that keeps on giving, then you tell us you're > 240 lbs and bench 155 lbs. FAAAAAACK.

SoggyTrain · 2020-01-06T15:51:32+00:00

Wow, you are one giant pussy. Go buy a Trump shirt, wear it out on a date. If she leaves laugh and NEVER call her again.

You are letting a woman decide who you vote for? No wonder our country is so feminine.

You are so fucked in the relationship already.

LucyDD69 · 2020-01-06T00:55:09+00:00

why the fuck would u care what she thinks about your politics.

Shits got me fuming. Tell her to shut the fuck up and stuff your cock down her throat. Her opinions don’t matter lmao

lolomotif12 · 2020-01-05T22:38:15+00:00

So your LTR of 2 years has kicked you out and told you she regrets falling in love with you over political beliefs which are no longer existent and you're just going to take it? You clearly have no frame. Find yourself a better LTR, one will respect your political differences at least and not treat you like a piece of shit.

UnbreakableFrame · 2020-01-06T02:25:15+00:00

Admitting who you voted for is not failing a fucking shit test. Literally doing almost anything else is though. Why are you such a faggot that you think owning your own decisions is a mistake? Why is no one else calling you out directly?

Fuck pressure flips. Fuck AA. Fuck dodging the question. This is not a shit test.

"I voted for Trump" is by far the best answer. Just be fucking honest.

You are such a fucking apologetic, spineless, pathetic faggot that you can't even admit it was Trump anonymously in this post. Who gives a fuck? I voted for myself in the 2012 election. I voted for Trump in the 2016 election and have 0 regrets. I'm not going to apologize for who I fucking vote for. How can you lead in your relationship if you can't even own your own decisions?

slappysq · 2020-01-05T22:49:23+00:00

What are your lifts and BF%?

If she was dating Chad she wouldn't care if he was a literal Nazi, in fact, it would probably help.

red-sfpplus · 2020-01-06T14:20:39+00:00

MAGA faggot.

tap0988534 · 2020-01-06T00:51:11+00:00

From here you get a Ronco ball growing kit. Carefully plant the ball seeds. Each day water them and give them sunshine. You talk to them, sing, rub them, soon they will grow. Once your balls have grown and your ball sack is heavy and full, tell bitches you vote for whoever you damn please, and that Trump is s God among men.

wkndatbernardus · 2020-01-06T13:28:21+00:00

I love telling lib gaylords I voted for Donnie. Their shocked/horrified expressions are worth the effort of actually replying to their pointless questions.

Toowhammy · 2020-01-08T12:13:55+00:00

Being political is the worst trait a person can have.

Carrera3286 · 2020-01-05T22:38:05+00:00

Hahaha no way you’re serious, right?

PaPaKAPture · 2020-01-06T16:52:57+00:00

Better question, do you REALLY wanna live with such a deranged lunatic?

Imaginary_Historian · 2020-01-06T17:48:34+00:00

"I don't give a shit who anyone voted for. I don't judge people on their values. Why do you?"

UEMcGill · 2020-01-05T23:31:35+00:00

You DEER'd instead of owning it.

Why wouldn't you own your past decisions?

Cam_Winston21 · 2020-01-05T23:37:43+00:00

"Who did you vote for?"

"Whoever I wanted."

I thank God every day for my blessings, among them is a wife who disdains modern feminism more than I do, which is a feat in and of itself.

RP_PO · 2020-01-05T23:56:38+00:00

“LTR”

Own your shit, and own your principles. Why are you qualifying yourself to her rather than the other way around?

Figure out what principles you want live by, and live by them. Or just keep being a limp dick fag. IDGAF, I’ll be at the gym/range either way.

nantucketghost · 2020-01-06T03:13:41+00:00

So your with a nut job. Move on. Wife voted for Clinton when I met her. Asked her why she did and she said it was because all her friends did. It was an honest answer and a very telling one. People are sheep.

I explained politics to her and she is a very strong republican now.

People can change, but if you're with someone who isn't willing to even listen, then what is the point? Political affiliation aside: You can believe what you want and still be a good person. You were willing to look past that, she is not. You're better off.

MrChad_Thundercock · 2020-01-06T13:05:26+00:00

She threw you a sucker pitch - and you took a swing for strike 3.

It’s all feelings with woman - especially anything to do with politics considering social media. They follow the opinion of the herd. Your answer didn’t feelz good to her. It was against the herd.

Who did you vote for?

“I always vote for the winner baby” smile and wink.

Or

“I voted for my favorite person- me” ass slap, wink, and walk away.

Don’t take her nonsense seriously. Treat her like a child. Cocky & funny.

Women filter the world through their emotions and feelz. Always remember that.

Edit: LTR? Who gives a fuck. There’s no contract with the state.

comu_nacho · 2020-01-06T15:47:29+00:00

For me, political views are important in a relationship, and but I'm a grumpy bastard

No matter what party she supports, pretty much each of them has committed atrocities. It's the nature of parties, to attract people who want to use legitimate issues to advance personal interests. Not saying every politician is corrupt, but rather that a corrupt person maximizes their reach by joining a political party in leading positions.

I'm left wing ("seize the means of production" left wing) so I'm very critical of mainstream "left wings", but at the level of parties and leaderships. Normal people can be decent and kind from all the political spectrum.

People who are interested in societal problems should be open to change their views on subjects as they are presented with new information, because strict views are a sympthom of fundamentalism and narrow minds. Besides, political parties work as a "one size fits all" for a bunch of subjects. You can support one part of their program and oppose others. And "protest voting" is a thing.

2020-01-24T01:46:46+00:00

This is pure faggotry.

2020-01-24T01:50:45+00:00

Im voting for my own wallet again, because im not going to be guilt baited into voting for a puritanical fucking communist. You're a total faggot for this post btw.

Grimsterr · 2020-01-06T04:15:35+00:00

"Who did you vote for?"

The turd sandwich.

Edit: hmm by the downvotes I guess everyone else voted for the giant douche?
