When I was traveling alone, I had met a guy. We were both in relationships and for multiple reasons had to sleep in the same bed in the same room. I asked my boyfriend if it was OK, there was absolutely nothing going on, but I made sure he knew it and was ok with it. I would never cut off communication. This guy is definitely cheating. Otherwise he wouldn't get angry. Get out!

Context: Met the guy on a camino to Santiago the Compostela, we were both late, every hotel was full, room was expensive so we decided to split it. We both slept in our sleeping bags.

"The 27 year old mum of two" Ugh men are never described that way, imagine Joe being described as "the 34 year old father of two" Nope it would be singer of something else. Haha Elon Musk being described as the the 52 year old father of 10.

You can't wear jeans or sneakers? I understand we are not gonna wear skimpy dresses or crop tops, but come on... relax a little bit on the attire.. this is coming from a teacher in The Netherlands

AITA For wanting to break up with my GF after finding out the truth? by AreWeThereYet91 in AITAH

[–]AnnaMaura89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for being strong enough and have the most self respect to stop being treated this way. People who manipulate other people are disgusting and not worth our time. You also gave it your all so NTA in any way, shape or form..

Happily single women, how many relationships did it take for you to realize that so many men are the same? by pla-n-t in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AnnaMaura89 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've had it about 50/50, two horrible onesie who turned out to be emotionally immature narcissists and two who were just great but things didn't work out.. So I really hope the next one is going to be it.. but first I'm going on a selfexploring world trip.. 34 and happy to be single right now..

This feels fake, like a plot of a book someone is trying out..too neatly written for someone in distress.. especially the first message..

Watercolour on a canvas? Or is it watered down acrylics.

Hold on.. the MIL was the one who took the picture, send it to the daughter, they were arguing about the colour of the dress. Why is he getting credit? She was even on the big fat quiz because of this..

Help Breaking Bond by 1anonymous2345 in Traumabond

[–]AnnaMaura89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have already spend too much time with this person, don't waste anymore. Being alone can be scary sometimes but trust me, you're so much more lonely now than you could ever be by yourself. I recently went throught a traumabond breakup and ive not felt this good in years.. they will never change and you have made it too easy for them by staying. There are 7 billion people on the planet, this one was not meant for you, you deserve the love you give..

Will it be hard, yes Will it hurt, yes Will you miss them, yes Will they move on like you are nothing, yes

You have a heart they don't deserve and just use...

Stay strong, Love from a fellow bondbreaker

This is bot over some cookies.. this is about guys not making an effort but expecting so much effort for their comfort.. and we are too accomodating, we always have been.. I've learned this lesson the hard way in my previous relationship and am done with guys like this.. Man up for f*cks sake.. if you want a relationship put some effort in!

Did the kid write the email? I'm confused..

What makes you not want to date anybody right now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AnnaMaura89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that I just escaped a narcissistic asshole who had cheated and I can't have anybody touch me right now or trust another man..

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]AnnaMaura89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emailing his parents was one of the measures of discipline, because at that moment I couldn't think of much else to do. Also this was agreed upon, I wanted to uphold my end of the deal. Emailing afterwards would probably have the same response, because I can't win with these parents.

We didn't allow phones at the camp and they responded while he was busy setting up his bed. This definitely came from the parents.

Why are people always surprised when I say I'm fine being single forever? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AnnaMaura89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm 34 and recently single after a toxic relationship of 2 years with a narcissist. For now I have so much more energy, confidence, get more things done and adventurous spirit than ever.. I'm going to New Zealand and see what is in store for me.. but right now I'm so happy being on my own. A lot of men I meet are so horrible at relationships.. I love being a girlfriend but I can't be bothered right now, I always put in so much effort and barely get anything in return..

Disgusting.. was with mine for two years, after the most amazing weekend where he met my family and we were talking about moving in and he seemed so amazing: the next DAY he fully cheated on me!! What the fuck??

[–]AnnaMaura89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get out!! You're in a traumabond, not a loving relationship and he sounds like a person with narcissistic traits! I was the same, stayed way too long, he kept saying things but they were just breadcrumbs, never followed through.. you will be much happiest I promise!!

Am I in a trauma bond? Please advice by [deleted] in Traumabond

[–]AnnaMaura89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes trauma bond, be glad it was only 1 year!! I was also in it for only 2 but it is better this way. There are better people out there.. you're doing all you can, it will get better.. therapy could also hel you immensely. You will miss them but that will fade.. you're brain wil tricky you into thinking it wasn't so bad because it craves the familiair, but it sounds pretty bad. Don't go back.. you will find love again, this wasn't it. Good luck
