I’ve always been anxious, so once someone gets annoyed at me, I get really upset and it affects my day.

I know logically that I shouldn’t care, and that women’s emotions are moment to moment, but I still find it difficult to get over these feelings that I’m doing something wrong even if I’m not.

Examples: - missing multiple unimportant texts when I’m busy or tired —> them being upset

  • Not flirting enough—> them feeling inadequate or not validated.

  • Speaking about something I care about for once —> they don’t care about it, feel bored.

The above often leads to them being upset, and in turn I get upset then it leads to arguments.

Also, how do I respond to women asking to “talk about something”? They usually have nothing to talk about, so I often get asked to “open a subject or topic”— it happened multiple times.
