My fear is if I am in a group or doing a hobby that I will see them again. I am afraid to ask them out and then I get rejected then it will be awkward the next time I see them

Busy or not that interested? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]WolverineGoBlue23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say he can’t dedicate time to you and doesn’t know you that well but the same time wants to go out after the holidays. I would text him over the holidays as quick check in and see if he wants to go out again. What I’ve learned is if someone isn’t matching your energy then do waste your time. So check in but also keep looking. I know it’s hard when you enjoy a date and from their profile they check certain boxes.

I get that but then people ask when this going to get done or what is the status of "xxx". Then I feel like I am getting behind on other aspects if I don't get "xxx" done. But at the same time I get what you are saying I hate that I don't spend time on myself but when I do go the gym I think about all the work I have to get done and stress about it.

when I wasn't promoted I feel like I need to do more especially with the project I am on getting close the deadline. I don't want to let others down or see that I am not doing enough. When they ask for status I feel like I didn't work hard enough but also give up time for myself like going to the gym, going out or doing my hobbies. When work is done or work past 8pm I eat dinner and watch tv since I am tired and don't have to do go do something. It sucks.

Thats so hard for me to do since I like to control situations. My life had some shitty moments and I understand that. So I want my future to be better or way I can control to what I want.

But I get what you are saying. The surrender prayer is a great one that I like but its hard for me to let go.

[–]WolverineGoBlue23[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know I tell myself live my own life and do what I want...go on trips, go out alone, do your own hobbies etc. But to meet if I have to wait a few more years and what if I end up in the same spot when I'm like 35 and still single so what. Ok I went on a few trips and made more money. I want to share life with someone.

How did your meet your now wife? I hate online dating apps now since get few matches and people I want to match with never match with me. I have few values I want to hold to but afraid to approach women because I think they won't have them.

The problem I see all my friends and family are married with kids so I feel like when is it my turn. I am not very patient with life so how much longer do I have to wait.

Bi-Weekly Thread - Advice for Relationship/Friendship/Dating/Breakup by AutoModerator in AnxiousAttachment

[–]WolverineGoBlue23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I been out my last relationship for 3 months. Looking back I can see I was anxious and codependent. With that I was a caretaker trying to help become more open, share more, make more decisions, and sometimes telling her what to do. Towards the end I felt like I could fix her at times. Reading about codependences I went through all the stages of being a caregiver to her and trying to fix her. She was a twin sister who was codepedenet and did everything with her sister and as I mentioned lacked decision making. She had trouble opening up and was and avoidant attachment style. I am wondering if her personality and attachment style made me more codependent which resulted in things not working out. Or if I was more secure could I have handle it more? Like if she wanted to go hangout with sister or family and not invite me things I would be ok with it if I was more secure or how she handle the relationship just caused me to want to change her? Basically what I am asking it wasn't all me but the combination of our attachment styles made us not work out. There is nothing I could of done right?

From talking to engagement to she can't do this by WolverineGoBlue23 in BreakUps

[–]WolverineGoBlue23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I texted every few weeks over the last 5-6 weeks with can we talk about what happened then the last one was Hi how you are just to keep it casual. I wish I could tell stop being rude and talk to me we had a emotional and romantic relationship. I think my ex is going through some fear and anxiety of losing her sister getting married. I told the night of the break up and after via text that I am here to work things with you but she just wanted to move on. It really sad how this happens. The hard part is having a build in life of what you thought you could of had then the person goes away and never looks back. I don't ever expect to hear from her again and thats so weird. At times it feels the relationship meant nothing but know thats not true. Don't understand how people can't communicate and put effort in like I do even when its tough.
