No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Often when people ask for advice like you are doing it comes down to "tell them what you told me just now."
In this case it seems like she doesn't listen, and/or care enough.
If you are trying in earnest, and it is reciprocated then there is room for growth. If it isn't then they are not supporting you, and you should seriously and decisively consider going separate ways.
You can like each other, you can enjoy each other's company, you can be in love, yet still it be wrong for a relationship.
The girlfriend sounds really childish. To the point I’m wondering if these are very young people, like early teens. If so it isn’t that that don’t care, it’s that they’re very immature and don’t know how to deal with anything uncomfortable and just shove it out of the way and move on to what they can easily distract themselves with.
If this person is an adult, I’m very concerned about their maturity level, becuase it sounds really stunted.

Do not base your next step on advise from the Internet! Talk to people you trust! Your love is young and you both will make a lot of mistakes and thats ok. Give the talking part of the relationship more time. Stay kind and fair to her and yourself. Be ready to learn. If you want to work for the relationship, work. If you dont, be honest about it.
You presume they have someone they trust. Many of us didn't at that age, or at all
There are social workers all around the world and of course not every single one of them is great but many are.
Social workers existing does not mean people have people they trust. What are you trying to say?
Those people are trained to support people in any situation and are inclined to be trustworthy by their professional ethics.
Its their job to help people in this situations.
You're doing well by being open enough to ask and learn.
You're gonna make some mistakes, and you're also gonna be right and prove the world wrong sometimes.
