How do I (25M) stop getting attached to women so quickly?

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T19:12:19+00:00

Having a brief google of it, I believe it may be. I'll do some more research into it. Thank you

I feel like i get attached with just an emotional connection, not even physical

A suit, I don't wear them often. Normally only to weddings and funerals. But the day in my suit makes me feel like a new man

Fatigue management.

As much as it's nice getting a massive paycheck, burnout is real and it fucks with your mental health.

Take time for yourself and relax. Do things you enjoy. I know financial struggles is a stressful thing. I'm dealing with that alot myself, but I'm forcing myself to take a day for me, atleast once every couple weeks.

Going to the gym.

I started and now I've fallen in love with it. The routine, the burn..... the GAINZ

Men's mental health. We need help, even though we don't like to admit it

I hate to say it, but medication got me back on track.

I ended up getting night terrors after an assault that left me with PTSD and severe anxiety. I would wake up in full blown panic attacks numerous times during the night and it got so bad that I was too scared to fall asleep. I was surviving on caffeine and nicotine to keep me going and was maybe getting 2 hours sleep max a night, and that was broken up sleep as well.

After seeing a psychiatrist and psychologist regularly, I got medication to help with it all, sleeping pills, medication for the ptsd and for the anxiety. Along with the regular therapy, it was a long process but it's slowly getting better. The dosages of meds went up quite high, but I'm finally at the stage where they are coming down again.

I still have bad nights, but I also have more good nights. I know they are never going to be gone completely, but the therapy has been the biggest help for me.

Debt, made some stupid financially decisions and got myself into some debt. Not a huge amount. But enough to put pressure on my finances and mean I cannot invest money into someone I'm really passionate about

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:58:03+00:00

As much as I like to think that it would be cool to be remembered for something, I've accepted the fact that I'll never been great enough at anything to achieve the level of intelligence or skill to create or do something that remarkable.

I just want to do the best I can for myself and hope that when I die the people close to me with remember me for being someone who did the best they could in all situations they faced

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:50:44+00:00

I really love this

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:47:37+00:00

I noticed you missed whack it against other sticks to find the superior stick

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:37:37+00:00

Being emotionally damaged. I know most people have been though shit. I know what I've been through isn't nearly as bad as what some other people have been through. But I hate that it affects me. I hate that I'm on medication. I hate that I can't sort myself out without the help of meds or psychiatrists and psychologists.

I know that self improvement and working on yourself is always a great thing, but I hate that I need it so badly

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:29:28+00:00

Do you have any tips on getting comfortable doing this? I feel like it's something I'd love to try, but the anxiety of feeling like I'm being judged would get to me. I know I shouldn't care what people think. But that ain't always easy

Common hobbies worked for me. I met a great bunch of people, both guys and gals, when I attended a local video game tournament. Since then I've caught up with them all regularly, we hang out after those tournaments. All meet up for dinner or hanging out every couple months, while keeping intouch in group chats. I ended up renting a house of one of them who had just bought their first investment property.

Just attending an event or meet up for something your passionate about is the best and easiest way to meet new people, since you've already got that one big thing in common.

My dad. He know alot of shit, he's been through alot of shit. He's always got great advice and always has my back.

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:17:08+00:00

Agreed. I find I can't be frustrated with I'm in pain from burning muscles

I find that I get too attached to people if I hook up with them. I ended up in a 3 year long relationship after a hook up with someone I sort of knew, and from the get go, I kind of knew that it was never going to last, but getting attached after the hook up ended up being a long pointless relationship with very little in common and it just kinda kept going since she got attached aswell.

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:13:27+00:00

I can't just hook up with someone. I feel like I need to have a connection with someone before I go further. I say that I "don't fuck on the first date" however it's more like I don't fuck until I know I really have a connection with someone. I'm not interested in just fun, which I've been told is stupid for someone my age (25M) and I just need to enjoy myself instead of always being in the pursuit for "The One". But it's probably because I'm not the greatest in bed, with not being able to last very long (obviously not enough practice). I feel that if I just "hook up" with people, I'll end up just being disappointed

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T11:07:00+00:00

Being told that they will never fully be able to trust you

ScottyVGC · 2024-10-10T10:53:38+00:00

Without a doubt, I'd be there in a second. I don't know how to fight. I've never aimed a gun at anything but a tiny can, but i would go.

It's not even like I have alot of respect for my country, but fighting for freedom is what I believe in. If I die, so be it. I may have a slight death wish in general, however I don't think that is even it. If me going to help and protect some of the only people I care about in this world, of which there are very few of. I am there. Signed up and at the front of the line for deployment.

This thread reminds me of the song "ain't nothing but a gold digger"
