A relationship is not always a walk in the park, and it takes patience, as well as the willingness to understand each other’s flaws in order to make it work.
Recently, the Facebook page of the Malaysian radio station, MY Malaysia shared an anonymous confession of a woman who expressed her disappointment towards her boyfriend.
According to the post, the woman revealed that every time a fight occurs or if anything happens, her boyfriend refuses to talk to her, and he will spend some time by himself before returning home a few days later.

“Every time I ask where he’s going, he’ll just tell me to give him some time to cool off,” she wrote.
The woman then admitted that her temper can be bad at times and that she tends to speak to her partner in a louder tone. However, she expects her boyfriend to accept her flaws.
“I don’t know how to communicate with him whenever he gives me the silent treatment. I feel so sad.”
But what about the money?
Communication is not the only thing that is causing the woman to worry as she also expressed her concern towards the money that she receives from her boyfriend on a monthly basis.
“He gives me a fixed amount of money every month, so I don’t need to work.”
She then continued to express her concerns by saying, “I’m afraid that I might lose this income. What can I do to stop this silent treatment?”
“Bad temper? Kill that habit then.”
Her anonymous post has gained a lot of attention and Malaysians have since weighed in. Some of them told her that she should be grateful for what she has, and asked her to reflect on her temper.
“Bad temper from you, hence his silent treatment. He’s supporting you financially, why are you still complaining,” said a netizen.
“Why do you think bad temper is reasonable? If you know you have a bad temper, then change. It’s weak of you to channel your vibes to others when you can’t even change yourself.”
Other netizens questioned if it was all about the money, and said that she should get a job instead.
“You should have a job instead, even though he’s giving you money. You both are not married yet. So don’t feel regret when he dumps you one day,” commented a user.
“Express more care towards him, calm yourself down. Also, find yourself a job. This is to save yourself from not knowing anything if you both break up one day.”
Meanwhile, some netizens think that she should’ve let the man go so that he can stop suffering. “Let him go, he deserves better. Find someone like yourself.”
“Seriously, it’s hectic to be your boyfriend!”
“Who do you think you are? Accept ALL of your flaws? No one can do that other than your parents. If you know you have a bad temper, then calm yourself down. Stop being so self-centred,” stated a user.
Do you think that the man should accept all the flaws of his partner, or do you think that the woman should reflect more on herself?
