Love: Today, my fiancée's OCD hit a new low when she screamed at me...

By Anonymous - 27/07/2012 21:23 - Romania - Bucharest

Today, my fiancée's OCD hit a new low when she screamed at me for flicking the light-switch off "the wrong way". This led to her flicking it on and off about a dozen times, followed by a twenty-minute lecture on how to do it "properly". We're getting married next month. FML

Today, my partner got mad at me for forgetting to turn off the bedroom light when coming back from brushing my teeth, and has chosen to sleep in our spare bedroom over it. FML

Today, my boyfriend found out I have OCD. When I touch something with one hand I have to touch it with the other or I freak. After I brushed his face with the back of my hand he tackled me to the floor, held me down, and laughed at me while I panicked and tried to touch him with my other hand. FML

Today, my girlfriend called me an "obsessive weirdo" for always checking the chamber on my handgun whenever I pick it up. The last time I let her touch it, she mishandled it and shot a hole in the floor. Glad she's learned her lesson. FML

Today, I got into a fight with my mom because she believes that my fiancé is "irresponsible" and "immature". I stormed out and drove back home. There, I walked in on my fiancé and his friends. They were in a heated and almost violent argument over which CSI is the best. The wedding's next month. FML

Today, my wife yelled at me for being a bastard and not caring about her needs. I felt like an asshole and apologized for everything. It took me a few hours to realize I'd basically just apologized for unknowingly hanging the toilet paper the "wrong way" for her OCD. FML

Today, my girlfriend snapped at me for being lazy and incompetent, and declared that if I was going to behave like a child, she would be treating me like one. This includes safety-proofing the house, talking to me like a 3-year-old and slapping me with a wooden spoon when I do something wrong. FML

Today, I accidentally walked in on my girlfriend changing. She responded by screaming, throwing herself on the ground to avoid me seeing her, and crawling into the bathroom. We've been living together for two months. FML

Today, I washed all the dishes and cups from the family dinner last night and put them away. When my wife saw, she had a mini OCD breakdown and yelled at me because the cups weren't lined up with each other with the handles aligned and the flower pictures facing out left. FML

Do everything wrong and see if she has a mental breakdown.

You are an ignorant asshole and a terrible person. OCD is an illness. She has no control over it, and you shouldn't be judging her and posting online about how your life sucks because the person you chose to be with isn't freaking perfect. Be ******* supportive, take her to see a psychiatrist, maybe get her some medication. OCD that severe can inhibit a normal lifestyle. This is so much worse for her than it is for you so quit being a whiny douche and be a decent freaking fiancée.

Firstly, he's a guy, so it's fiancé for him. Secondly, like someone already pointed out, he may be posting this on the Internet to help cope instead of blowing up in her face.

If you love her get her psychiatric help, MEDS can help those with OCD problems in the the mean time try to eliminate her triggers that sets her off like by turning off the light switch on or off when she isn't looking. Everyone has issues so dont follow people's advice to dump her, just follow your heart and things will work out

Oh my god, my boyfriend used to be that way about the channels on t.v and in which order to change them. He is much better now and doesn't have any of his bad symptoms because he takes medication for it. Still I can't imagine my life with out him, n people with OCD actually know that their fears are irrational they jus sadly can't control it, they often get to anxious to admit it, I watched my boyfriend deal with it and it crushed him sometimes, still I never gave up on him and trust me it truly is worth it loving someone while accepting their flaws. If the person is worth it no matter what nothing stands in the way of being with them.

Whilst that does suck, you are aware that she has OCD. I won't say be more careful - it seems this is something new so you couldn't have foreseen it but just bite your tongue. Find a way to deal with the rants yourself, get her some extra help if she needs it and try to take time to do stuff you both enjoy so good stuff still happens in the relationship too. Good luck.
