I am sorry things are not going to well.

Your boyfriend sounds like a really nice lad I wish I had someone like that but I can totally understand why he annoys you. It must really hurt him to see you suffering cos he sounds like he loves you but really does'nt know what to do for the best.

Why dont u try being more open with him I think that sounds like what he wants.I know its hard though.

I wish you all the best and here if you want to talk,

hey nina,

i agree that your boyfriend sounds really decent. And i can understand your problem. My friends and my brother used to do that type of thing.. pushing food in my face, and using the fact that i wouldnt eat as ammo to use against me during fights. It not nice, and i understand that when u love them so much its hard to be hurting them when u cant help it/ dont want to.

I put most of it down to the fact that he doesnt understand ED's completely. My family etc didnt. Try and talk to him/ be more open, even if he still doesnt understant. At least your approaching the problem and trying to work through it rather than starting more fights. Try to get him to understand that you dont want to have this problem, its not just some crazy diet, but its a psycological thing.

Also, maybe try and use this as a way to fight your ED. You'll find that things will improve and you can do more things (eg. go out and eat whatever you want etc) once youve overcome it. and you'll both be much happier!!

Good luck hunni!!!

xx
