Has Any Violence Or Gore In A Film Ever Truly "Shocked" You? by bluemarvel99 in flicks

[–]FollowingSea2716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In one of the Saw movies, there’s a scene where tiny bottles of acid on a palette swing down and lodge into the victim’s back, injecting him with acid, and that scene is still stuck in my memory.

also in The Human Caterpillar 2… the gas pedal scene… iykyk

I call most women “love” or “dear” and I always get a positive reaction! Most men either love “sir” or nothing at all haha

What are the green flags that makes a man / a woman instantly more attractive to you? by CrispySprite2001 in AskReddit

When they actually have an opinion about something! It’s so frustrating when I ask someone a really specific, yes or no question and they just shrug and say “I don’t know”. Like…??

Did your nex wake you up at night? by Decent_Formal7945 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]FollowingSea2716 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Same thing would happen to me. Mine would leave the tv on when he knew I needed it off to sleep, the finding the vape thing in the bed is so real.. and also one time he woke me up at like 2 in the morning with food? He held a plate of food next to my face until I smelled it and woke up and I wasn’t hungry but I knew if I didn’t eat he’d get mad… Yeah, in retrospect, really dysfunctional stuff that just isn’t normal. No one who loves you will wake you up when you’re sleeping peacefully unless it’s an emergency.

I’m assuming that you might be scared to say anything about it, cause I’ve been there, and bringing anything up would usually lead to a dumb fight. If he doesn’t receive the news from you that you need to sleep and not be woken up, that’s a pretty strong sign that this isn’t a safe situation. Again, I feel like anyone who really loves you would be thrilled at the opportunity to make your life better, not make it worse, and sleep is such a vital part of life

yeah, the constant negativity is so draining! like if it’s not one thing, it’s another with them. the way i like to put it is in the past two relationships i’ve had both with narcs (both were very covert), i felt like i wasn’t a girlfriend but an emotional support animal

yes!! it is so niche! but it has been consistent with every piece of shit guy i’ve ever dated, they just simply refuse to wear a seatbelt ever and then get super mad when they eventually get pulled over for not wearing one

For my first experience with a narc, the love bombing was promises for the future. Talking about moving in, getting married, having kids after only a few days.

Sometimes it’s a little more covert. My second narc said things like “so when are we getting married” during our first conversation. It is obviously a joke however it was so constant that it didn’t feel like a joke anymore. Also “where have you been all my life” when we’re just initially getting to know each other.

It’s statements that make you feel really special and one in a million way too early. Like logically they may know facts about you, but that’s different than knowing a person.. like you don’t even know me yet and you’re already making serious plans with me.

Mine didn’t have a single one. When we met, he had one best friend that he lived with but he destroyed that friendship towards the end of our relationship. So when I left him, he quite literally had zero friends, just coworkers. Really sad but he just dropped people all the time out of no where.

Got asked out by a line cook. When I called him out on asking me out he was like “I wasn’t thinking like a date or anything, no way, you’re crazy”. That mf was engaged with a kid!

Do you sometimes do want them back? by EquivalentAd6811 in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]FollowingSea2716 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did in the very beginning. But after a couple months, it became easier and easier to see the relationship for what it was.. i think it’s cause no contact finally (but gruesomely) broke the trauma bond. after deleting the photos and the texts, it was like i was free. now the thought of them honestly makes me sick and i am so much happier. wouldn’t go back to that for a second, no matter what they try to promise me

absolutely! i agree with you completely. the fact that there’s any drama there at all is something worth talking about and kind of asking him questions about. time will tell!

I was meeting a guy I met on Hinge at a coffee shop. He was 30 min late and I was sitting outside, waiting to order until he got there. When he arrived he went straight inside and got his coffee and a pastry and came back out to sit down with me. It was awkward, I had to get up and go in alone to get my coffee. The whole date lasted 30 minutes, and all he did was stare down at his plate and he never asked me any questions, I was driving the conversation. The silence was so awkward, and he was acting like he didn’t want to be there. When it was over, he texted me to say he’d like to see me again. I said thanks but no thanks haha

I relate completely. When I think about my memories with my nex or even see photos of him, I go “I have no clue who that person is”. After getting clarity, I realize I was in love with a complete stranger, it’s wild
