Alright, thats fair. I do like him, in fact, I love him.

About the nail biting: as I've stated in this sub I have a history of compulsive bahaviour. I picked at my skin until I was 15. I understand the struggle. I also understand its sometimes not a conscious behaviour. But, its a behaviour people can train themselves out of, like I did. Perhaps I'm guilty of the mindset " well if I broke my bad habit, he can too". You can judge me. Mouth noises such as nail biting annoy me on a level you do not relate to.

Why I haven't brought up his behaviour yet: my boyfriend is not your boyfriend, ok? M suffers from severe depressive episodes we are working on. I don't know how to approach this issue. I don't know everything. I am asking for help because I care about my relationship with this person.

I have my own sensory and anxiety issues you don't seem to relate to In the future, please comment with an objective mindset. We are not all like you.
