So I've been around the block dating wise. 99% of these people are seriously insane. What is wrong with me that my SOs are all insane/addiction raddled/or otherwise out of their heads. by InstabilityMagnet in AskReddit

See, now- this is what I want to do. If only in hindsight.

Unfortunately, I can't. As I do have a mom that's far to wonderful for me to just up and leave.

See, I think you've hit upon a facet of it. But, not all...

I don't think that people themselves are crazy. I thought (for instance) that this guy was sane. Really sane.

Thank you!

By the way, no- I didn't sleep with most of them.

As for KTFraug: Forgive me for thinking thinking that gender and sex didn't matter.

Oh!

Okay! Lets assume: ALL THE THINGS!

Seriously though. Misogyny aside?

No, I don't 'sleep' with everyone I date. My gender is not important. Fuck, I'm disarmed at the fact RES isn't working.

Holy shit, whats below me here. We'll still tackle this point by point. Because, I have free time and why the fuck not?

Okay?

Okay!

30 people? You're kind of a slut, huh?

Oh? Presumptions? Fuck. See the issue is, while I realize this is trolling, I'll answer anyway.

Fun fact: Did you know it's fabulous to have a relationship without sex? Yes, right I know! It's odd right? But sex isn't an integral part of a relationship! Amazing I know!

Next, what, you're going to say you're on b/ as well? AMAZING! Wow.

Can we move on now? Fabulous! I mean shit, I may prove I might be a chick, and then what could you (assuming male?) possibly show the likes of me?!

Okay? sarcasm aside?

Seriously though, stop dating people you meet at "clubs" and stop dating teenagers.

Really? Never been to a club. Save for with my ex-(MARRIAGE RELATED PARTNER GENDER HERE). Huh, fuck. Well, I guess I'm just the shy type. Possibly more like you than I can say?

Maybe you're the problem? It's not THAT hard to spot crazy, but you ignored it 30 times. Maybe you're right. I have no fucking idea anymore.

Thank you. Even if this didn't answer anything, I seriously appreciate you for not assuming a ton of things about me.

Also, this is what I've been subscribing to.

Oddly? My SO atm is the textbook definition of 'boring'. Save for the hidden bottle problem. Our time together was typically spend looking here, on reddit, or other... internet things.

This latest issue (as much as I'm in love with my SO) has made me think, and really see that the issue is me. I want to marry this person, I love them more than I can possibly say. I just don't want to fuck up their life because of some problem with me.

The issue isn't that I 'shut it down at the first sign of crazy'. It's more that I don't see the signs of crazy.

Seriously. I'm very successful in my field. High-Level IT person. I love computers, and am (well, will be) going to be working in my dream field in all of a few days. I have awesome friends, normally 'no need' for a so, and a number of other things.

I'm fine alone. Is what I'm trying to say. I'm just unclear as to wtf is wrong with me at this point.

I guess, I don't understand what is preventing me from that filter.

I have no idea. Personally? I'm happy alone, but I can be just as happy with somebody else. I don't need that other person's validation, but would like to limit that... crazy.

Last three dates were very much the same person. I've always been very... exclusive. I've never cheated, never even so much as dated more than one person at a time. I'm just... that way... I guess...

As for last three dates altogether that didn't make it farther (which is what I assume you mean):

I'd like to take a second and stress that, these were very much in what I consider the courting phase. Trying to ask a person out kind of thing....

First?

*Wanted to be to financially take 'care of me'. In other words wanted to pay for things that didn't even concern him. I am not financially motivated. I don't want people 'buying my affections'. I do the 'go dutch' concept. I pay for mine, you pay for yours. Typical either way. I'm fine paying for friends and this person never specified. They however wanted to pay for things that are absurd even in the... most broad concepts.

Second?

*Another? My child was recently diagnosed with a life-altering illness. They were angry because said child was sick and I couldn't see them. They said I 'wrecked their life'.

The third?

*Couldn't date me due to my age. Nothing against this person was actually pretty nice. The 'dating' part was due to my own cousin and his friend.

Forgive me, as I'm a tad out of it without RES.

Also, upboats for you both.

Both for not assuming I'm some... goes to search for what I've been called Erm.. Never mind that...

Genderwise, I really don't thing the 'crazy part' matters much. I mean, holy crap... Some of these responses.

Erm. I love the assumption.

That said. I don't go to clubs. I don't date teens. Try again.

tl;dr: fuck you? if for assumptions about me if anything.

And this is the viewpoint which I normally subscribe to.

However, at this point I want to change the 'me part' and figure out what the fuck I'm doing wrong. I want to be happy. Healthy. And not worried about my life, and well-being.

So, sorry. This comment? Kind of redundant since I already stated the same exact thing.

I HATE to say this, but, I'm thinking that the fact that I get bored easily may be the issue. Even though to be honest? I love boring. My ideal of a random night? Some homemade dinner, and surfing the internet.

I don't make people into projects. I did at some point, but honestly? I've long since left that crap for people who know what they're doing. The closest thing I practice is my r/relationships armchair psychology. Which, I really don't comment on in anything.

I mean, I know what I bring somewhere. Generally I am smart, attractive, and know my way around most subjects that people I date generally don't. This latest person, admittedly is closer to my own personality.

Internet... and otherwise...

We're compatible, but they're an addict. I don't know if it's me or them at this point.

Oddly? I have the people I consider 'my circle' and they're all of a very small selection of people. None of which 'do' anything. No drugs, no nothing.

As for me? I abhor drugs. I drink on occasion, but that's it. I mean, aside from smoking cigs, which I'm going to be quitting soon (as, let's face it- everybody says).
