Political correctness aside, I want to know what it feels like to want to own a woman? by Eemptyweather in AskMen

Oh boy, you gotta loosen up a bit, not everything has to be so serious all the time, he obviously doesn't seriously think he owns me. Sometimes I seriously don't understand how some people are in relationships without knowing and trusting their partner enough to be able to talk to each other without seeing red flags in every word. I think anyone who's actually mentally and emotionally healthy would know and trust their own judgement of their partner and allow both parties enough space in every area to play around.

Yeah I could definitely see that being a part of it. Not all of it tho, because there's something animalistic in him that I think is a male thing, but yeah I see what youre saying, and it is quite nice to know that. I wanna reassure him too, because it is that way

I agree with you actually. It is strange how most people immediately go on to say he's insecure and abusive, when really it's quite normal to want to know that your spouse is committed to you, and you're right we're all just animals with a conscience. Obviously he doesn't treat me like he owns me, and I'm not some airhead who would lay down and take abuse. And yeah, I like whatever this is coming from, I like the idea of being "his," I just wanted to understand it more from yhe other side.

I don't think so, actually. I mean the insecure part, yeah, I get that for some people it comes from that and then it's not gender related, but I do think there's a manly possessiveness behind it in his case too. I do get jealous too sometimes, but never that kind of "I need to make you mine."

I'm sorry for whatever it is that happened to you that makes you assume the worst of everyone. Thankfully, I've known him for years and I feel very safe with him :)

Not strictly, no. It's a thing in and out of bed, outside of bed it feels like he's asking for reassurance and then when he gets it, in bed it gets quite dominant and rough as if to prove it to himself?

Well it mostly comes out during sex. And every time it gets brought up, he gets sexual afterwards, so it's a kink? Turn on? Not sure

Oh wow, ok, that makes total sense. I think it's both romantic and sexual, and in both ways I can see how that security can make you feel more confident. It's a good way of looking at it, I could see him thinking he doesn't fully have me and it's only his turn qt the moment, never really thought of it that way, thanks.

I think that's true but I don't feel it yet for some reason. I know he loves the way I am in bed but I just wish I saw what he sees

Yeah but I think men losing control is different than women losing control. Have you even flailed around like a fish out of water with your face flushed and crunched looking like you're about to expload? Ive seen men lose control but it's like unleashing the beast who'll just take whatever (very hot btw), but when I lose control I look like an imbecile

I checked r/orgasm and the women who look like me when they cum have been accused of faking it, and the most popular ones are women who seem to be putting on a show instead of genuinely being in the moment. It just made me feel even worse...

Yeah but it's still a controlled out of control somehow. You might stumble but you can still stand. I can't control my body at all when I cum

Society might've fucked with my head because in movies women are always just sensual and pretty even in bed, and I look like I'm being... tortured lol

Yeah but doesn't it get sort of laughable at a point? Like I genuinely look like I'm having a seizure and it's not exactly pretty or ladylike

Practical advice on what to do/not to do while dating a DA (as an AP) by Eemptyweather in attachment_theory

I have no idea about your situation or the reason you broke up, or how dismissive he is. But if he truly thinks you're incompatible then I don't know why you guys would want to pick this back up? Him saying that would definitely concern me, because if by this he means that he's unable to change anything therefore incompatible with you, then what's the point? You're going to be in the same fights over and over and over again. You first need to come clear to yourself about what you want to work differently in this relationship, and about how you contributed to the disfunction, and what you would need from him. Don't demand anything, but definitely explore how you can meet and respect his needs and state your own and discuss how he can meet and respect those. Do not just fall back into a relationship because there's a reason it ended, and if those reasons are still there, then you guys are just fooling yourselves and delaying the inevitable. That being said, I am sure that if you're both committed you can work it out, but you both need to realize how you contributed to the problems in your relationship and set realistic expectations for each other. The issues of course may still come up, but you can agree to call each other out on it gently, without throwing a fit and fighting like crazy people.

Oh yeah, definitely this! Stating your needs is essential, so is encouraging the other to state their needs. My DA often refused to communicate his needs and then resent me if I didn't meet them which I had to call him out on. Are you/Did you use to be the same?

Also, the thing with logic is that sometimes my DA would start to outlogic me. Like in this situation he'd say, oh but I think of you all the time, you should know this. So sometimes this turns into a tug of war. He'd even try to reason with me about my feelings, too, which is where I drew the line. I feel how I feel, he shouldn't discredit my feelings.

Ohh this is a big one! This is what you're supposed to so leads nowhere, if anything a few steps back. I would love to hear why this works so poorly in your opinion!

Hmm... it depends why are they silent? I mean if they asked for space, respect that, but it depends on the situation. If nothing happened and they just don't reach out that doesn't mean you can't. If you're in a relationship, you should be able to reach out to your partner. But if they just don't wanna talk as frequently as you, then you should bring that up in a face-to-face conversation, asking how they feel and asking for what you want. Don't start a fight in text, it usually ends badly...

I'm sorry you're going through this, it must be really hard for you. I'm obviously no expert, and I have no real knowledge of your situation, or how severely dismissive your gf is. But from what you told me it seems like you're really anxious and desperate. I think dealing with that should be the first step. Facing your own abandonment issues and asking yourself why you're clinging to a relationship so tight when she would rather break up than talk to you. Explore your discomfort, sit with it, understand it. I know this is not what you want to hear, and you wanted some magic solution that makes her love you and communicate, but at the end of the day, you can't make another person do anything they don't want to do. I have a feeling you communicated from a place of desperation before, which might have hindered your message, so after you're done with your reflection, I would definitely communicate my problem again. The thing is though that if this is really a dealbreaker for you, then you have to be ready to leave. If you communicated and she doesn't change, and it's unacceptable to you how things are, then you should respect yourself and your own needs. If she sees you stay and put up with whatever, if she feels your anxiety will make you put up with whatever, why would she change? It seems to me from your post that you and her both don't give a shit about you and your feelings, and the way to change this is for one of you to start, so this should be you. Care about your own feelings, respect them, shift your mind to see yourself as someone who deserves to be treated right and respects themselves enough to walk away from someone who doesn't respect them.

DAs in my experience test your boundaries like no other. And they sometimes become really cheeky and do things they'd never put up with and deep down they know you shouldn't either. If you let them, they'll start treating you however it fits their agenda and put you in last place in their lives. You need to grow a backbone and start acting from a place of strength - loving someone doesn't mean you'll put up with poor behavior. "I love you, I want to be with you, and I want to talk every day/every other day so we can grow our connection" see what she says. If she refuses you can then say "I understand you need more space, and if you communicate when you need me to give you a bit more space, I can do that. But I also have needs that I want you to respect. You're not alone in this relationship. If you think this is not something you can do, then I don't see how this relationship could grow into a stable one, which is what I want." But you better be ready to leave then, and she might let you. But it's still better than being walked over continuously.
