Sooo I’ve made a post like this in the past about Reddit. I struggle with ocd and recently have had a flare centered with my relationship. It’s been getting so much better but tends to spike before my period. I essentially posted for some support about recent thoughts I’ve been having that has caused me to overthink and send me into a spiral. A lot of my thoughts right now are: worried I have or will cheat on my partner, worried if I flirted, worried about enjoying compliments/ feeling validated from others, worried when I find someone else attractive and worried that I will do something wrong, now it has centered to “what if I’m only excited for the wedding for the event and not the marriage” I was ultimately seeking reassurance (I know not good) and received many comments saying I’m going to ultimately cheat on my partner, I should be single, and I shouldn’t get married. This has all sent me into a spiral and I guess I’m now looking for support here

reddit isn’t the best place to ask questions like this, maybe try rephrasing it in your head that if your friend told you they liked when someone else gave them compliments, did that mean that they should be single in your eyes? do you think they would cheat? i think it’s human to like compliments from other people even when in a relationship, it makes you feel good, it’s how you react on it that makes you likely to cheat. if a guy complimented you and you just jumped on him and kissed him then it would be a lot different. if you just say thankyou and it makes you feel happy then it’s fine, as long as there are no advances towards a different relationship with this person other than friendly then i see no issue.

I don’t think looking for support and advice on the internet from random strangers is the best thing for you. I would recommend talking to loved ones and/or a therapist.
