Dear fellow RPillers, I'm currently in an LTR. And I have I only swallowed the pill 4 months or so. But I have been into PUA for over a year. So at the moment I'm faced with an issue in regards to boundary setting.
When I started my LTR my SO, like most HB8 her life was full of orbiters and a ton of dudes that like her and she's in frequent contact with. However, as our realtionship grew her contact with these guys decreased in frequency. And she cut all contact with orbiters because most of them when faced with the reality that she's interested in a new guy (me) and about to get serious with, confronted her with their feelings and how much they "like/love" her. So she ended all contact with them.
Anyways, so being somewhat needy back then and slightly until now. I made this agreement with her/promise that if and when she has any contact with them or any other guys she is to let me know immediately. Whether she initiated that contact or they did. Unfortunately, that backfired on me. And she's been requesting that I reciprocate that same behaviour, from the sense that "I should do that which I expect her to do". So back then, it was only reasonable for me to comply and it seemed logical at the time. Because like that I would know what is going on and how she's dealing with all these guys and it wasn't a big deal to let her know my dealings with girls because in a sense it would be fostering competition anxiety or so.
The problem I'm facing now is, I had this one girl orbiter that I rejected because she was being too pushy and too abrupt in her ways. So now my SO has this unconscious expectation or belief that I will do this hard no rejection to all my current female friends or contacts.
Lately, my contact with them has decreased exponentially. However, I have this one really close friend that is currently going through a rough time in her life. And I have been wanting to be supportive of her and help her out. But every time I get in contact with her my SO knows and gets all passive aggressive on my ass. I was supposed to call my friend today and have a Skype talk and all. When my SO knew about this yesterday she got all passive aggressive and uninterested and withdrawn and been throwing gay remarks in the middle of the convo. So I just ignored and acted like I don't even notice her passive aggressive behaviour and didn't acknowledge it at all. However, I'm kind of hesitant on what to do at the moment do. Do I set a boundary here that I need to be there for my friend or just keep things as they are now and ignore her passive aggressive behaviour.
TL;DR: Recently swallowed the pill. Pre pill made an agreement with SO to share all contact with other sex friends and orbiters and now whenever I need to contact any of my friends and she knows I want to contact them or agree to Skype dates to catch up and shit. She gets all passive aggressive and uninterested and withdrawn. What to do all wise RP men.
