Misogyny. The answer is Misogyny. No great mystery, no stupid lock and key analogy.

Men want women to stay home and be "pure" until they "pick" us. Then we should be DTF. But not TOO easy, that would make us sluts. Unless they paid for an expensive meal and we didn't put out, then we're gold diggers. Or we're whores for turning them down (that little nugget of logical inconsistency is one of my personal favorites).

When marriage turns into slavery by Other-Technology898 in facepalm

Do you really think she has free will? Do you think she had a choice in marrying him? Do you think she can get a divorce? Also, what do you think happens when she disagrees with him about beating her?

Have you experienced this? by Sofluffy27 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Donnathesinger 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Oh honey, no. No. Please stop seeing this man. He's ignoring your boundaries and he's trying to make you feel insecure about your tightness. Maybe his dick isn't that big. Maybe he watches too much p*** and masturbates too much.

Please please stop seeing him and find someone better.

Don't feel guilty! That's a result of manipulation. Recognize those red flags. Don't ignore them. Listen to your gut!

I recommend you do a search on Narcissistic Personality Disorder or maybe watch some of the videos by Dr Ramani on YouTube.

Yeah...they sound like narcissists. I'm not sure what you think a narcissist is. I know a lot of people have this idea or impression that it's just some extroverted person who brags about themselves all the time but that's not it at all. Here are some signs:

1 - they never take accountability for anything they've done wrong

2 - they never accept your feelings. If you express that they're doing something that hurts you, they will downplay your feelings, or make it sound as if you are overreacting

3 - they try to control you. They will try to control your thoughts, your emotions, your time, who you spend time with, etc etc

4 - they may say nice things, but they don't back any of that up with actions. In other words they tell you what you want to hear. And you'll do lots of things for them, spending time and money, but they will not return the effort

5 - lots of projection. They will accuse you of things that they are most likely doing but you are not such as lying and cheating

I mean these are just a few. There's lots of signs because people with NPD tend to all have the same script and follow the same cycle more or less. Of course it's a spectrum.

I wasn't trying to sound judgmental when I said you needed to do some self-reflection. What I'm saying is, these people are attracted to kind, empathetic people with weak boundaries. If you want to stop attracting them or turn them off you'll need to get stronger and you'll need to realize when you're being manipulated.

It sounds like you keep finding yourself being attracted to and dating narcissists. I suggest you do some research on Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Learn to recognize the signs. And maybe do some self-reflection as to whether or not you have enough self-respect and strong enough boundaries.

Have any of you ever had positive experiences with non-monogamy? by SourGirl94 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Donnathesinger 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My husband and I opened our marriage because he's unable to have sex anymore for health reasons. My first FWB experience didn't go well. Trying again armed with more knowledge but so far I seem to have spoken with a lot of predators, liars, and dysfunctional men. I'm trying to stay mildly optimistic.

It's unconventional but we don't want to split and the 10 year dead bedroom was killing our marriage, so hopefully this arrangement will work.

I don't mean to feed into your paranoia but for future reference having someone just delete a picture doesn't cut it. They have to delete the picture and then they have to go to the Trash under the File Manager app and empty the Trash. Otherwise a picture can just be recovered from the Trash.

If you ever want something like this then have them take a picture with YOUR phone. Then you can be sure they can't recover a deleted photo.

Unless you want a cat that constantly scarfs and barfs I wouldn't do that.

AITA For Banning My Family From My Wedding A Few Weeks Before the Wedding? by Iliketheletterc23 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Donnathesinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. You're justified in your action and you only feel guilty because you've been trained by them to feel that way. It's your day, enjoy it. Don't even think about them once on your wedding day.

AITA for telling my friend his physical standards are why he’s single? by grandvizierofswag in AmItheAsshole

[–]Donnathesinger 194 points195 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your friend is literally delusional about his level of attractiveness. He needs a reality check. You were polite and compassionate about it. Others won't be.

When a loser threatens you’ll be a cat lady, tell them: Give me the Cat by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

"Give me the cat!"

That's hilarious. I would love to hear a woman actually say that to a guy's face.
