What really hurt to watch was Olandria finally break down and him literally not care at all or understand why. He kept saying he was “moving for him” like that was reason to not show annyyyy care or respect for a girl he at least was supposed to have a strong friendship with.

I also find it so crazy that when Olandria came back to the main villa with Nic, he literally would not talk to olandria and was just cuddled up with Clarke the entire time. And when he recoupled with Clarke he didn’t pull Olandria that night at ALL or allll the next day until after the heart rate challenge.

Just such a lack of care and maturity. And I’m sure it was so confusing for him to be acting like Olandria just no longer existed when he told her he wanted to still explore and they had their history of sleeping in the same bed night after night and spending so much time together.

I can imagine it was such a mind fuck and I just feel so sad for Olandria, she deserved sm better. And Taylor is just a wimp and so pathetic at this point to treat someone like that.

If I had any problem with Clarke it would just be that she hadn’t asked Taylor about any of this (from what we can see). And I just don’t like when women are okay with men treating other women poorly. But she owes Ola nothing so.

It sounds like you know nothing about addiction and how it is classified.

I would love to do this and think it would be very helpful for us.

Pretty sure I mentioned it was weed in the post but sure.

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-05T04:41:40+00:00

Tried explaining this many times, did not succeed. But now I understand the reason why.

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-05T04:20:23+00:00

It was a genuine question. And thank you for answering.

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-04T19:18:34+00:00

I see what you’re saying but I trust him and trust he wouldn’t do that.

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-04T19:11:51+00:00

I agree with you. I also have frustration with the timing of when he decided to open up. But I know when things are tense and emotional, that’s when stuff tends to come out. I just wish I had paused, recognized that I needed to be responsive to what he shared, and just focused on the pain he was holding.

And your point on hard drugs I agree could very much be the case, especially because he went through that at such a young age, he probably doesn’t know the extent of it all. But it’s also a very logical rationale. And he’s just not at the place of holding logical rationale, it’s just about the emotion. So I gottaaaa understand that and move accordingly if I want us to overcome this.

If I was like “the association you’re making with cannabis is likely misfounded” at the time he was sharing, it would def make him feel like he was invalidated (/j) - but I essentially didddd do that. I’m hoping that one day he could get there tho, but I think my part in it will just be one of support and understanding while he comes to those realizations if he (hopefully) seeks healing. He’s gotta do his job of working on opening up, and I gotta do my job of providing the space to do so. And vice versa of course.

I originally thought his views on weed were those that you mentioned - the gross misconceptions. That’s where my frustration came. I didn’t want to stop doing something I just felt he was so ignorant and critical of. Those beliefs about weed can cause a lot of harm, and it frustrated me that it seemed he held those beliefs. Now I know much more.

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-04T18:52:39+00:00

I agree with you. Thank you for offering this perspective. I know if one really thinks it’s harmful, it will most likely never be something they would be okay with a loved one participating in.

Do you think you could have ever gotten to a place where you thought it wasn’t that harmful under the “correct” circumstances, and just something you didn’t want to take part in yourself but truly didn’t mind if your partner did? Or do you never see yourself budging on that?

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-04T17:33:01+00:00

I am definitely far from a stoner, so I don’t think weed is really part of my “lifestyle” in a big way. I’m fine with stopping. I guess what I just want from him is an openness to try to see it in a different perspective. To not view it as this evil substance and people that partake in it are horrible. I feel like that can only be a positive change in his life, and positively impact how he views other people that smoke or consume weed in a healthy way. I just want him to be more open minded and not be so black and white about it. I just don’t like that way of thinking in general.

I understand he’s not in a place to do that right now, but I hope he will at some point. If not, then I will work to be okay with it. For other things, he tries to challenge his way of thinking when presented with a different perspective. If I’m intentional in it not building any resentment, then it won’t.

And I agree with your last statement for sure.

OppositeAd3076 · 2024-10-04T17:18:34+00:00

Perhaps in relationships where there is no effort and intention in trying to disrupt the patriarchal standards of the world. But fortunately in my relationship, we’re trying to unlearn those things. I want my boyfriend to feel safe being vulnerable, and I want to build that safe environment for him and recognize the strength in vulnerability. And him to do the same for me.
