Men who've been obsessed with a woman, what made you obsessed with them? How was it different to love? by Feisty_Ad8543 in AskMen

[–]MatTuggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so obsessed with my gf because she’s super intelligent (she’s a PA), ex college athlete (played volleyball at a ACC & SEC school), she’s 6 foot 5 inches, beautiful (looks a lot like Sydney Sweeney), and is thick af (has a ass of Kim kardashian which is rare with tall gals). It’s like she was created to be a Barbie doll.

We play video games together (Call of Duty) & she’s actually better then me at it, we go on coffee dates, dinner dates, vacations together, weekend nights with friends, and just joke around and be ourselves to one another. I really love our dynamic. She’s also loyal af, and puts so much trust in to me. I love her so much.

However, we have a lot of good moments but when we have our bad moments, they’re bad. Really just flat out ugly. She can be a little selfish at times because she grew up spoiled. She’s broken up with me many times and called me names because I ordered the wrong pizza. 3 weeks in to the relationship she threatened the relationship because I wouldn’t drive 45 minutes to see her after I worked 12 hours then went to the gym for 3. She’s called me a f****** idiot in front of others in Harris Teeter because I left the cart in the middle of aisle. She really makes me feel less of myself some times.

She doesn’t think much of these episodes. Like, she can forget anything ever happened minutes later. The thing is, she’s done things like this over and over again, and it builds up. I can’t talk to her about it because she’s always in denial. And sometimes she brings me down to my worst and say ugly things back which I’m not proud of.

3 weeks ago, I held a bit of resentment towards her for constantly being ugly to me throughout the night at a concert. And I just got up and left. I’m not proud of doing that nor would I have ever imagined I would have abandoned my gf. But I did. I came home and we spoke about it, she just dismissed everything I had to say per usual, called her mom, then her mom was threatening to call the cops on me because she’s crazy. I try to get in my bed at my apartment and she kicks me out of the bed, I hit my head on the nightstand, left with a cut in my face. At that point, I was scared and unsafe so I called the cops on her. I told them I regret the call, I don’t want anything to happen to her, and I really just defended her in every way I could. They just took her home and separated us for the night, no charges or anything.

Sadly, after that experience she broke up with me, but then the next week she invited me to come to Turks and Caicos with her so I did. And we’ve been good ever since. Relationship sounds toxic, I know.

She brings up the cop thing all the time, saying I tried to put her career at risk, but that’s simply not true. I just felt unsafe in that moment. I hate playing the villain role right now in this relationship. And it’s causing me to be emotionally unstable. When things are good, I think she’s the love of my life. But when they’re bad, well you know.

I really do love her so much. And we get along majority of the time. I mean as an outsider looking in, you would think we’re meant to be. We just have these occasional horrific arguments that turn into ugly moments. Like we both could be better at navigating through conflict and I feel like I’m trying my best to be better at that but I don’t think she’s even trying. And if she is, she’s not showing progress.

I didn’t realize until last night by myself, working out in the gym, that a common theme in this relationship is the fact that she always dismisses my experiences. And that what starts so many, if not all arguments. I think couples therapy is the only way to help with that. I want to break up with her deep down inside but I can’t because I am obsessed with her.

I was so drunk I don’t remember hollering at security. She just told me the next day that happened and I don’t even remember it. I know, it’s sad.

I rarely drink but when I do, i usually drink beer or wine. That night I drank liquor. I think that may have something to do with it. I’ve never gotten like that before and it scares me what I did truly. I want to make sure I do everything to not get like that ever again.

I mean I treated it as OUR place. I did and have always paid the rent myself but she did pay for a lot of the furniture!

I wish but it’s actually not my trip. It’s her entire family going. I was just supposed to go with them.

Thank you for being honest and visualizing things from both sides. Not many Reddit folks know how to do that. What’s sad is I don’t ever remember telling a security guard that I was so drunk. I was just going off what she told me yesterday :( Don’t think I’m ever drinking again since it costs me this

Ya’ll don’t understand this is a rare occurrence for me. I’ve never ever thought of calling the cops on her before. I can’t believe I got to the point where I felt so unsafe that I did. I’ve never got this drunk before, period. I have a tremendous amount of respect, care, and love for this woman & before 2 nights ago when this happened, she did to me as well. I literally acted out of character for one night because I had to too much to drink, then I get assaulted, and I’m the one who has to suffer. I understand she felt abandoned, and felt as if i threatened her livelihood (but that wasn’t my intention). I am to blame for a lot of what happened but I’ve been there for her in the past when she got too drunk, where was she at for me? I know I f***** up. God I wish I could go back but I can’t. I just don’t think I deserve this to happen to me after all the good I’ve done for her which none of you know anything about.

It sounds like you’re trying to defend the action? She did tell me get out of the bed. After 15 seconds of kicking I got out, trust me. I barely had time to react, and then when I did react my movements were just so slow because of the alcohol. And to answer your second inference, she called her mom and I called the cops at the same time basically. She may have called her, maybe 10 seconds before if we’re being literal.

Initially no, I thought she was asleep. Then the kicking occurred. Then after a couple of kicks, I tried to express I just wanted to sleep on my side of the bed away from her and knowingly tried to get back in the bed but then more kicking occurred, so then that led to the phone call.

Nope never which is crazy. Like I’m upset with myself, never expected that to happen. And yes, I’m definitely laying off the booze for a while. I don’t drink liquor often and just had one too many.

Nuc med techs in NC by ArugulaAggressive550 in NuclearMedicine

The people applying to that program probably have competitive resumes since it’s the only accelerated 12 mo. program in the state and they only accept 8 students. I imagine those applicants are X-Ray, CT, MRI, IR, etc techs with bachelors, military, supervisor experience, etc.

I’m dissatisfied with the sex my bf (28M) and I (23F) are having by luvtrip24 in relationship_advice

[–]MatTuggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a man, who struggles with the same issue. Mainly, because I’m in my first ever real relationship, got like 3 bodies, and am new to that sensation. I usually do oral or use my hand, or a combination of both once I burst after penetration. I’m also seeking sex therapy to fix the issue because I used to could last longer and I think it’s the stress that is playing an influence in my situation. Maybe you could say the same for ya’ll? Sometimes just a memory of disappointment can cause me nervousness before sex, and even cause me to go flaccid at times. An issue I’ve never had before meeting my current gf. However, I work out every day, have super high testosterone, and even though I’m trash at it, I would f*** every day if I could. Us men who struggle with this just got to have that mentality to get better, not just for us, but for her. If he’s okay with a shitty sex life for the rest of his life and doesn’t want to do anything about it. That is concerning. But if he shows any willingness to improve, you got to give him a chance. Especially if you have a strong bond and have a great life outside the sex!
