The only reason I say yes is just because it’s the formulaic path that’s been taught to me since I was a kid. Graduate high school, go to college, get a good job, get married, buy a house, have kids, train them to do the same. This isn’t the path that my life has ended up taking, nor is it the path that I want to take. There is a big difference between the idyllic images we are shown/dream of and real life. I want a long term, committed partner, and I want to have a celebration of that (likely j…

Don't try and tell me what my thoughts and feelings are, or tell me to "admit" what you've assumed. I utilize reddit as a sounding board and a diary of sorts. I wrote one post immediately after the initial situation. In between the two posts, I've got school, I've been dealing with a covid exposure in my household and I've had to manage isolating and working with my school to find temporary housing. I posted an update when I found a moment to catch my breath. Like I said, reddit is also a sort o…

Thank you!! Yeah, I also realized that while I liked having someone around, I really enjoy being single right now.

Thank you!! And exactly. It's exactly the same as all the incels, redpillers, and MGTOW who think "well this is what happened to me and my friends so this is how it is." Then they log on to their echo chambers and blow smoke up each other's asses, talking about how "all women" (aka Becky their one crush from high school and the cheerleading squad) do XYZ so women are trash. Now they manipulate and/or treat all women like shit because they need to stroke their fragile, pseudomasculine egos. Yet t…

What is your definition of slut wear? (Genuinely curious, I see the terms thrown about but there’s rarely an accompanying description, and it’s so subjective I find it interesting to see what the different ideas are.) Also, Reading this and trying to figure out what the opposite would be, my mind jumps to the extreme, which would be to dress like a Pentecostal, long skirts and turtlenecks, no makeup.

Context: PPD was discussing whether or not a woman should have to give her current partner the same sexual acts that she has performed with a previous partner, regardless of whether or not she enjoyed it or not. The specific act most people referred to was anal sex. There were plenty of NVM saying yes, and it was a pretty fucked up thread, but this one gets special recognition.

Its funny too because my ex was exactly that, a predatory shapeshifter who pulled one over on me and this guy knows that. I think the fact that I don't need a man, and that I'm going to be critical, selective, ask questions, and not fawn (and I told him this!) is throwing him for a loop. I do think he's fairly harmless in regards to being emotionally dangerous or a cheater, but I don't think he anticipated me requiring him to have a brain and a backbone. I think he thought I would just fall into…

Yuck, yeah that sounds like him. At first it was endearing and impressive, then I started struggling to find a subject I could bring up that he couldnt intellectualize, then he would try and mansplain things I already knew, including my own anatomy, and the final straw was tonight. So i guess it's just been a gradual raising of the red flag.

He seemed to have educated himself only on what fit the narrative he wanted to believe. As is with most redpillers. Either way, I heard enough and was dismissed enough to realize how low value he is!

Good point and clarification. I do still stand by though that nagging is usually only done when there's an imbalance and/or previously established and agreed upon expectations are not being met. I.e. fair share of household duties, or asking for help. I don't think nagging is healthy or productive in the least bit. It's irritating to both parties and is a sign of an unhealthy relationship dynamic coming from both sides. Consistent communication is key.

He simply sleeps with her, no strings attached, and walks away I'm not talking about no strings attached situations. The original comment was in reference to relationships. These are all bullshit excuses What are excuses? Saying that a long term relationship and managing a household is a team effort? a woman's way of saying "I don't respect you/am not attracted to you on the same level as I was with more attractive men who I slept with." Literally nobody is saying that, directly or indirectly. I…

Men who don’t deal with nagging work together with their partners to find a mutually agreed upon routine that fits both their expectations of how the house and relationship will be taken care of. And then they follow through. Men who don’t deal with nagging respect and care their partners enough to want to communicate about the things she’s asking him- sorry, nagging him- about and come to an understanding and a mutually agreed upon solution. It’s behavioral. Jason Momoa is going to deal with na…

It totally is a cliche! But it's true. And it goes for more than just you and your partner. The first step of course is sharing with your partner, putting all your cards on the table, being honest about your baggage, laying out visions, expectations, and goals. Then, you need to be honest with yourself, (and this is the hard part,) put your attraction and desire aside, and really assess whether or not you think you're compatible for the long term. If you've discussed compromises, are you really …

Pleading with a significant other to change should never happen, period. Walk away if it gets that bad. But if the foundation had been laid properly, through honesty, openness, and communication, then each person should have been able to see that this would not be a compatible match unless serious compromises were made, and evaluated whether they would be able to make those. And I don’t give a fuck how well he pleases me in bed if he can’t pull his weight in other areas of the relationship, and …

I’m not 100% sure the point you’re trying to make with all of this, but I agree with that in theory. In reality however, every single part of what you just said is so subjective and easily abused. On one side of the red pill spectrum, you’re going to have people who think that success is getting laid for as long as possible, and are going to try to maximize that by any means necessary with as little effort as possible, while having little to no regard or consideration for the other person, becau…

Nagging is a type of controlling behavior. Controlling has power behind it. It implies that you can force the other person to behave in a certain way. I would argue that the person ignoring the nagging is being more controlling than the person doing the nagging. By them not doing the thing, they are forcing the other person to do it. It’s a stalemate, and the thing is usually going to get done one way or the other. The person doing the nagging is the one usually who has less power in the relatio…

Exactly. Good for that person. And especially for going for liberal arts. It's so versatile, and unless you're going for a specific STEM or health type career, typically a liberal arts degree will fulfill most degree requirements. Plus, you can use it for pre-law, you can put an MBA on top of it, there's so much you can do. That kid was actually really smart about their college education. That kind of thinking, planning, and grit will take them far.

Looking at his comment, he begins with "When I was single..." which leads me to believe he currently isn't single, which by default puts him in a better position. AND then he goes on to describe other, healthy LTRs that seem to have been founded on a platform of genuine value and respect, even though they ultimately ended. He's in a better position than the majority here. And even if he was single, given that comment alone, I have a vastly greater starting assumption about him than I do the peop…

Nagging has nothing to do with attraction. It’s behavioral. Just a heads up. 👍 There are plenty of healthy relationships with mid to low levels of physical attraction where the men don’t experience nagging or demanding. “Nagging and demanding” comes about usually through incompatibility and/or inconsideration. Keep in mind when she’s nagging you, she’s asking you to do something. If you’re being nagged, or interpreting it as “nagging,” it’s probably time to have a conversation about what it is y…

Relationships can end (or fail, as you put it,) for a multitude of reasons, many of which do not reflect fault on either party. Timing, circumstance, priorities, tragedy, incompatibility, etc. Same with why people are here. A lot of reasons. Some, like me, just enjoy being exposed to other peoples perspectives, thoughts, and experiences. I also enjoy the debate and conversation. Being in an echo chamber is boring and unproductive.

I’m going to start using this phrase in my trauma counseling I now have to go to for my ptsd that my ex caused by his utter depravity.

Still, it's insane to expect someone to really understand what they want out of life at 18 when your brain is still developing Wholeheartedly agree here.

This is why I (25f) loathe online dating. One, pictures aren't indicative of compatibility, nor is a carefully worded bio, or lack thereof. There's also the issue of photogenics. My mother has a BEAUTIFUL natural smile, but has this weird, stiff, unnatural photo smile. I also find that looking back, if I were to have come across pictures of the men I have had actual relationships with in the past on tinder, I'm not sure if I would have swiped on them, segueing me into my next point.

I'm interested for you to expand on this. My understanding (please tell me if I'm misinterpreting) is that you discourage women who want successful marriages from pursuing high earning careers and having casual sex. I'm not sure what you define as "unrealistic standards" as this is a subjective matter, so I won't make any assumptions, but again, I would be interested for you to expand. Based on this initial understanding, these are my thoughts: The women I know who are pursuing high paying caree…

I've known he was unworthy and have distanced myself for three years. It was an entertaining cathartic outlet. "Wasted" is a subjective term. I was sitting in a hotel room with nothing to do and it was an entertaining boredom buster that ended in a block. I'm a cat, he's a mouse. I played with my food a little before I blocked him. Is it not the best etiquette/queen behavior? Sure. Did it hurt me or slow me down in any way? No. Do I make a habit of it? Hell no!

I have a habit [clearly] of hanging on and spiraling out, gets worse with stress and inactivity which there has been ample of lately. I had been doing really well for so long, which is the f…

I’ve been studying my ass off over here, I just read that no Zero days, I love it! I’m going to start documenting every day what I did to get myself one step closer to my goals of reclaimed independence. Thank you!

I haven’t interacted with my ex in nearly a year, I have nowhere else to live right now than with my family due to financial circumstances, and I’m trying my hardest to involve myself with school and other positive, constructive hobbies.

Yum!! Their appetizers and desserts are the only things I ever order if I go there. Most chain restaurants actually.

I know two of them really did, and I really hope I’m able to have a discussion with the third one day about her experience with him. She has a really strong network of friends though, so I’m staying in my lane until either she approaches me or the opportunity appropriately presents itself. I’m really grateful though that he has such amazing taste in women (but sorry as well because these beautiful, incredible, HVW are being destroyed by him) because I now have a small tribe of really great, supp…

So, did he pay for her parking, or did she Uber there every time? He said three dates and Uber was pluralized so which is it? And why can he pay for her parking when it’s her own car, but not her Uber fare? (that depending on the city was potentially less than the parking rate!) he sounds more salty that she hasn’t put out for him yet. I can almost guarantee you that she very politely opened with “do you mind if I get something small? I haven’t eaten dinner yet and I’m really hungry.” Now he’s p…

GAG GAG GAAAAG. ummmmm it’s not just water?? Mucous, bacteria, viruses, plaque from your teeth, I can go on. The first time this happened would be the last. I would throw out what he cooked and throw him right out with it. FFS.

I personally never want to be a snooper just because I know for me on my phone is private access to all my thoughts, private feelings, and things that I jot down to get out of my head, and if anyone ever read those without my permission I would feel violated to the nth degree. My opinion is be with someone who doesn’t give you any reason to feel like they are hiding something (unless it’s a gift or something good for you that they’re trying to surprise you with! If you’re into that.)

What a dick. I’d say something like “good for you? I was a kid dealing with social anxiety. Assholes who automatically assume that I had some sort of defect or problem because I was a loner only made it worse. I can assume you were probably just as much of a dick in high school too?” (I have no idea if that’s your story or not but I’m all sorts of riled up for you right now that he’s talking to you like that. Plus he doesn’t need or get to know the real story of why you didn’t have friends in hi…

Right! Me too. I was like damn they just said that shit?? Moooods! Then I realized they were using it as a title for “one who neggs” and I was like oh. I’m okay with just saying assholes! Anyone who neggs is preying upon women or people with low self esteem, pickmeishas, etc. and that’s an asshole.

Damn. That’s really powerful. That’s a man who was raised right, and if he wasn’t, he is doing a DAMN good job at breaking the cycle. He’s exactly right! Especially the part about violence with words or physical violence. I feel like sex can be subjective to a degree, but treating others with kindness and respect should be an objective standard. Period. Edit: I mean that everyone has different tastes and flavors for sex, but they should ALWAYS be treated with kindness, respect, and dignity. Sex …

This really makes me think. I don’t do bdsm, and fully support the stance of anti bdsm anti porn. But in my life I’ve enjoyed a hand on my neck a time or two. The first time years ago that my ex and I had sex he squeezed my throat so hard I made the ugliest noises trying to breathe. It made me really uncomfortable, a little scared, and insecure. A while later into our relationship he asked me what I liked and I told him I liked the hand on the neck but not the squeezing, and for the life of me I…

My ex never used condoms with me. I tested positive for cancer hpv while I was with him, told him, found out he had been cheating and hadn’t told her. Then he started dating someone new and found out he hadn’t told HER either. (Twice actually!) Had some fun conversations with those women. Makes me really fucking paranoid over what he may not have told me. Edit: realized he had two new girlfriends that I told about his situation. To not tell someone that is withholding pertinent information regar…

As an extrovert with introvert roommates this hits different. I WISH someone would let me talk after a long day! Or come to me after their long day. But from my experience with men it usually ends up with “oh honey sorry you had a bad day let me make you feel better...” and starts to try to seduce me. Like um. Sir. I don’t want dick I want to tell you how much of a dick this Karen was today. Ffs. Let’s go to karaoke so I can get a drink and unwind. GTFOH with that lack of emotional support. That…

Me too! Glad it wasn’t anything super serious,although a migraine for a week wasn’t fun. I’m feeling much better now, sorry I didn’t see this earlier, my reddit was being weird and didn’t let me see a couple of the comments on here. Ugh. But yes, I’m feeling much better now and am glad to have such a NVM out of my life.

Wow, my reddit screwed up and I’m finally able to see your comment! I knew I was missing some lol. I am feeling much better now, and I’ve made peace with my own actions, and used his lack of response as a confirmation of his NVM status.

Yeah I was really really pissed at them. My mom feels horrible though, she told me she thought it was just me being tired and that I would come home, sleep for 12 hours and then be fine. She definitely learned her lesson with listening to me when I say stuff like I’m not ready or that I don’t feel well, and she’s been in the hospital with me since the day I was admitted- I was so sick I could hardly communicate for myself :( But she does feel really bad about the whole situation.

That’s interesting, I do have PCOS so I have been on hormonal BC since I was about 12, I’ll ask my doc about that when he comes in this morning and see what he thinks! We’re currently thinking it was a direct result of a surgery I had about 2 days prior, either as a result of general anesthesia, exhaustion, the stress of being high risk for covid now, or the stress of those plus being forced to travel before my body had any time to recover. (I had the surgery out of state and the day after I was…

You are NOT the loser of your breakup. You’re the winner because you got out and are in this group. Seriously, go to r/narcissisticabuse and post all your thoughts and feelings there. They helped me process so much of my pain. I mean, mid July will be my 1 year mark since the last time I saw him/went nc. But just because that’s my timeline and story doesn’t mean that if yours is longer or shorter that it’s better or worse. I had to do a lot of self reflecting and ask myself what could I have don…

I think it’s the same concept as a meme going around I saw that said something like “nah sis, the sex wasn’t that great, it was just the only positive intimacy he gave you” or something like that. They fetishize “crazy” because they go for pickmeishas, treat them like crap, get them trauma bonded, then when the pickmeishas are going crazy trying not to lose him and he wants sex from them, the pickmeishas are so desperate to work to prove their worth and keep him that they put in hella effort dur…

Ugh, not quite the same situation, but I decided to go back to school a couple years ago after a failed attempt when I was 18. The first few quarters I did great, but when my NVM ex decided he really wanted to leech off me, I got zeros my last two quarters and dropped out. Now I’m 25 and having to go back to school again to finish my degree, hopefully to be finished in 3-4 years. Never letting a man pull me out of my life and my success ever again!! Not worth it in the least bit.
