This is why narcissists love to end long term relationships by ghosting and NEVER accept any responsibility for their actions — In a narcissist's mind, everything is about maintaining their sense of control over others.

Does anyone else feel like the investment isn't worth the potential reward anymore? — Because I'm really starting to. I know dating at ANY age is a weed out process. You're going to be into some people that aren't into you. Some people are going to be into you that YOU'RE not into. Yo…
I'm going crazy these people are monitoring spirits — I don't have a name for it but it's a pattern that keeps happening (26F). I've developed terrible mental barriers to do anything and its suffocating. I want to know if this is normal or has happened t…
How could you do this to me? — How do you let go when they were everything to you? How do you accept the sad reality that you might never see them again? I was so in love with you. I guess I still am, even after everything that…

A week after we broke up she went to…
Yeah, it's fucking hard. I don't think I'll ever get closure because she's never been the sort of person to really make an effort to give that to me. I obviously can't be inside her head and speak for…
Fortunately I've taken my separation (and inevitable divorce) as an opportunity to quit drinking and make healthy lifestyle choices. I've been working really hard to practice mindfulness and radical …
Omg twins. Hi! Yeah I hadn’t been in a romantic relationship at all for six years before I finally tried with this FA guy. In my last real relationship I was targeted by a psychopath and it fucked me …
Did you try and address the concerns or did you just "forgive them" until you decided there's one last straw that you may or may not tell them about and bail? If so then that's toxic and unhealthy; I …
The big trap most self-aware anxious attachers fall into is thinking they can "spot" an avoidant and somehow steer clear of them. That's not the point of dating, actually. Your attachment issues cause…
Good luck on scaling lol. Solo founding is fun until you're drowning in customer support tickets at 3am with no one to tag in. VCs want co-founders because they've seen this before - the burnout…
I'm a neuroscientist and I know a conditioned puppy when I see one. I will continue to meet what I sense being 110% wrapped up in classical conditioning and subjective emotions with 110% mental clar…
You are also not going to have children with strangers, acquaintances, or even friends, and let those people potentially hurt you deeply + take half of your things when those relationship ends. You a…
Well, if you're into them, that's the first sign. It'll be tricky to differentiate between DA and secure for you because they'll both feel like they're moving at a reasonable pace at first, but a DA i…
I don't agree with that no one should suffer. Suffering is, on some level inevitable. It's a signal to address an unmet need. While I agree that we should work on healing and healthy ways to connect w…
It’s also okay to have a conversation now at the outset between two FAs about how this happens. “Hey, it’s inevitable that we won’t like everything about each other, but what’s important for me is tha…
With love. You can't repair a relationship alone. It sounds like he's accepted the relationship is coming to an end, did he discuss where you will both live (separately or together) after the 6 weeks…
Corporatism is the inevitable evolution of capitalist political economies.
It's great that you are feeling better about how you'd be doing in a relationship, but to be honest it seems impossible to meaningfully answer the questions on the test if you are not currently in a l…
What is NC for? I wouldn't say it resets, I'd say its the start of the next upwards ride of the roller coaster, the new honeymoon period before the inevitable downward slide again in a matter of wee…
That actually makes sense. When we became friends and I asked why he wouldn’t be serious with me when dating if we get on so well, he said because he liked me as a person a lot and if we dated he’d be…
Yeah, I think you may be right. Loss may feel inevitable. When I was younger, I found new relationships including friendships exciting and full of potential, but I realized that they all ended in the …
Insecure attachment is something that usually takes root in childhood. And if they are FA they likely have some pretty severe trauma. None of that is a temporary state. It can easily take years and ye…
I have been poly and have had good experiences with it (returned to monogamy though bc my partner is mono) but I would highly advise you against it as well at this time. Your primary relationship is …
I find this stuff kind of fascinating. No one ever talks about how *sadistic* anxious people can be when they’re feeling ignored or abandoned. They would rather get any reaction than none at all, and …
Well there isn't really much else to add other than "read the index" which gets tiring lol. I often get people messaging me about an SP situation which are the toughest missions. The reality is the …
Time is inevitable, I’m making sure to focus on outdoor adventures but boy does hope seem hopeless!
Feel it, sit in it, grieve it, cry it out. Then, journal it, pray over it, cry more of it out. Eventually peel myself off the couch, wash my face, sleep it off. Start with some under eye patches…
I was definitely ruined by my first big relationship. I walked into a party, we locked eyes, and I heard a voice in my mind say "oh, there she is!" She felt exactly the same. There was no guessing, no…
I had virtually no breaks where I wasn't talking to someone or actively dating someone after my divorce for years and I think in retrospect it's really delayed my healing and I probably should have ta…
I remember they started that season off by just winning a bunch of games. Most people thought they would eventually start losing, but then January came and they kept staying in the fight. You could se…
I mean you explicitly state you would date this guy if he wanted to date you, so it seems to me you have some level of romantic feelings for him. I would say it's warranted his new gf would have some …
I dated a someone for 6 years who sounds similar to the girl you're talking about, and it didn't end well for me. My vote is don't go back to her; you can do better. The negatives you mention are th…
Hi u/Inevitable_Young4236, this has been removed for violation of the following rule(s): * Be excellent to one another! This is a place for all races, genders, sexual orientations, non-exploitive se…
So, it’s entirely up to you, because real talk…who cares… Old me might have said goodbye to try to illicit some response, that will just end it abruptly or draw out the inevitable… I would like to t…
No! I just don’t do well with insecure people. I just have so many random connections on my life. It is a running joke that run into people I know all the time. I don’t always remember how I met them.…
When the solar return ascendant matches your natal ascendant sign, it's one of the more meaningful configurations in predictive astrology — and definitely not accidental in its effects. The most imme…
I cried at dinner with my boyfriend this week, the day before he met my extended family. I hate that any significant milestone in our relationship comes with an intense wave of doubts and anxieties. I…
fantasizing: daydreaming but having the conscious and subconscious belief that "it'll never happen, but it's nice to think about", or "it's nice to dream, but i have to get back to reality at some poi…
you are wasting your time hoping he'll suddenly become the partner you need. holding a tough conversation is really just delaying the inevitable. you are already envisioning a life full of resentment …
I honestly thought it was my ex who wrote this until I read "muddy tattoos". When you lose the person you saw your life with and the feeling was mutual? That kills the soul. My ex had sized my r…
They have no intent of paying it forward. They have no intent of lifting up the next generation. I saw the same. My grandparents left money that helped them tremendously, while they squandered every…
The question comes up a lot, so I apologize for copy pasting my answer. For me. Benefits: Confirmation of the divine. Loss of the fear of death. Loss of existential anguish. Loss of the concern with…
Maybe it's your vibe that's the issue. Aging sucks but it's inevitable. Don't let it steal your joy.
I love how you said, "after a month it met me in the 3D". Implying that within the 4D imagination and feeling is when you first got it (meaning of course that's when you first started having it; the d…
Nothing will change and you’ll cheat again. Separate now it’s for the best. The both of you are just prolonging the inevitable and hurting each other in the process.
>"give you a much lesser version of the relationship that you deserve" The way you read this statement as being entirely about you, and feeling somehow accused of your standards being too high is wil…
You surely know that narcissism is a personality trait/disorder. It's incredibly difficult to change who someone is as a person, and most narcissists don't even know they're narcissists/denial about t…
To be blunt, this is the experience of probably a majority of men since their 18th birthday. Most are sexually invisible by default - they make themselves visible by approaching, putting on a mask o…
I knew when she officially broke it off with me Friday, it was inevitable that we would cross paths again. I was hoping it would be at least several months. Nope. I was out on a bike ride, noticed a g…
That’s an interesting point. I agree that some level of evaluation is inevitable on a first date. Maybe what I meant is more about the tone of the interaction — whether it feels like two people being …
Between two strangers? Not much difference. Constant evaluation as the interaction unfolds seems inevitable, and has some healthiness to it as a matter of self-preservation. Of course, if one person i…
My sister (33) has Crohn's and — while they did have to do surgery to remove a chunk of damaged intestine at one point — doesn't have a colostomy bag. It's not like it's a inevitable thing that will h…
Take some deep breaths and enjoy the time they're here, death is inevitable
