Every time I bomb a biology test, my boyfriend ignores me in the hallways and leaves me on delivered for days because he says my grades "make him physically sick". I felt so guilty until his mom literally just texted me asking if I could tutor him because HE is failing bio... wait, what is even happening here? Am I losing my mind?

Plot twist of the century: he wasn't nauseated by your grades, he was choking on his own panic. Giving someone the silent treatment over a pop quiz isn't high academic standards—it's pathetic emotional blackmail. He made you feel like an embarrassment just to build a massive smoke screen around his own sinking ship. When someone weaponizes icy silence to make you feel small, they are usually just terrified you'll realize they're standing on a stepstool. You don't owe him free tutoring, and you definitely don't owe him your guilt. The next time he gives you that haughty, disappointed glare, look him dead in the eye and say: "Your mom asked me to tutor you, by the way. Do you want to study together, or are you still pretending you're a genius?" Stop wasting your energy trying to earn back the attention of a boy who treats you like an accessory to his GPA. Let him fail his own makeup test.
