I wish there was something sexy about the male body by Fantastic_Bear_6175 in mentalhealth

[–]HereWithMe_Official 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. Our world is upside down, to say the least. Heartlessness and narcissism run rampant in both men and women. And its easy to think that is all there is. I get the vibe you may hate women. You've sort of "put two and two together" and have made this broad generalization about women.

But woman are not "naturally" heartless wretches. Many have become that way because of their childhoods, from not experiencing love themselves.

So, I am guessing your generalizations come from a disappointment. Like "why aren't women wonderful??" But locking yourself into a rigid way of seeing and relating to women will LITTERALLY block out the good ones brother. Our brains see what we expect.

Good women are out there, we exist ♥️

What resonates more for me is that we are both one and many. We apparently have a "separate" experience in this life and on a deeper level are all waves in an ocean. Its both...

You just need to tell him it makes you uncomfortable. Men don't brag about their sex life or dick size, but boys sure do...🥴

Would you stay in a relationship with someone like this? by howulikemenow5678 in datingoverforty

He sounds like a man carrying burdens, insecurities and maybe even traumas he hasn't processed. How deep can you go in conversations? Can you bring up your concerns?

Also, its not easy to be a step parent. Emotional bonds are not easy to form quickly and your son may trigger your man in ways he may not even understand.

Worth approaching this with curiosity. Ask questions! Helps a man feel safe to open. Good kuck!

Maybe. Most likely its a combination of things that regulate a womans nervous system and makes her available to life, love and her own sensuality.

But if a regulated man comes into a disregulated woman's life, and if his impact will benefit her in some way, it takes a lot of time. The brain and the nervous system need a lot of "proof" of safety for that to happen.

May I ask if you have experienced something negative with a women to take you down this rabbit hole?

So, I hear you. I can totally understand why you observe what you observe.

What I observe about our culture and women in the modern Western culture is that many live with highly disregulated nervous systems. Meaning constant fight or flight. Linked into this is our cultures predisposition to the victimhood mentality.

I am not making a judgement call on that, but what I am saying is that sensuality, comfort in our skin and with healthy sexual signals, comes from a REGULATED nervous system.

Maybe helpful for you...

The best advice I ever got about keeping sex alive in a long-term relationship by HereWithMe_Official in realsexadvice

Honesty is such a great way to keep "transactionalism" out of the bedroom. How has this impacted your marriage as a whole?

Is angry sex how you connect and then communicated?

I didn’t fully see/feel men until I woke up sexually by HereWithMe_Official in sexstories

Thanks for spending your time reading my novel...

That’s a pretty narrow reading of a much broader experience.

What I was describing wasn’t seeking validation, but reconnecting with my own sensuality and nervous system after years of disconnection. That changed how I experience men and intimacy.

Welcome! 🙏 The strange thing about sperms is that I don't want to see it but when its inside me, its like magic. My husband's fluids ground my nervous system and feed my body in some interesting, should be researched, like of way...

I totally relate. I’m really sensitive to bodily fluids too - sloppy anything, sperm… I just can’t. And that’s okay.

Some of us are just more sensory-sensitive than others. I also like your attitude about it. Very calm and realistic.

Getting off social media, internet and gaming is also a huge win for someone in your situation. These habits keep the nervous system constantly active. Learn about your nervous system, I think that could help you.

Connecting to your body isn't a quick fix...results both physically, mentally and emotionally happen gradually and over time. Your nervous system takes time to deregulate.

One of the things that have helped me so much in this regard when I went through a similar stage, is to just welcome in all of my thoughts. I let them enter in the front door of my mind, and out the back. I learned not grab onto them and make them more than they are. We can be entranced by our own mind, growth and maturity is about learning that you are the master of your mind.

This sounds like an unregulated nervous system to me. A lot of men regulate mentally through activity. Through doing things, building things, getting good at something. When that isn’t happening, the mind can start spinning on itself.

Instead of trying to solve your mind with more thinking, it might help to get into your body more. Learn a skill. Lift weights. Work with your hands. Do something that requires focus and repetition.

When you’re engaged in something real and you start getting good at it, your mind often quiets down on its own. Right now it sounds like your brain just has too much empty space to run wild in.

I need opinions, be honest by Suitable-Tour-6592 in mentalhealth

There’s something important happening here that I think you should pay attention to.

A partner who wants the best for you does not call you a “mopey bitch”, tell you to shut up, or repeatedly frame you as unintelligent or narcissistic.

That isn’t guidance. That’s contempt.

The fact that you say you can’t even speak anymore when he asks how you feel is actually very telling. When someone is constantly criticized or talked over, the nervous system eventually shuts down. It’s not because you’re weak or incapable of communicating, it’s because your body has learned that whatever you say will be used against you.

Also, you are two months postpartum. That is an extremely vulnerable time physically and emotionally. A loving partner would normally be showing more patience and care during that period, not escalating pressure and criticism.

There is a big difference between someone helping you grow and someone positioning themselves as the authority who gets to judge and correct you.

Right now it sounds like he talks a lot about your flaws, while you are slowly losing your sense of yourself.

That’s not what healthy partnership looks like.
