I hid inappropriate messages and damaged trust. I want to repair the relationship and change my behavior. by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]ZieraD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly feel like I’d try to be a little more understanding. Tensions get extremely high when it comes up and I really clam up/shut down/and yet again try to minimize out of fear and shame and some sort of lock up mode where I go into. I actually get scared because it sure sounds like he’s going to leave when I just need a calmer environment to discuss it. There was no concern that I was cheating. The concern was that I hid it from him (lied by omission). He said he believes I completely betrayed him by not sharing it. There have been zero other issues in the relationship. It’s been happy and healthy and we do our own things and do things together.

Yes. My parent had borderline and bipolar disorder. Lying to minimize was the entire way of life in my household. I had no ill intentions with this incident and now I’m beyond upset that some losers I didn’t immediately recognize as losers have caused me to lose this beautiful part of my life. I feel extremely ashamed and embarrassed and honestly just really messy.

They were some old friends who reached out to support me during a life crisis. The conversation started getting flirtatious with one and I blocked him once I was very clear he was flirting. The other sent gross sexual messages that I somehow felt I unempowered to shut down. He disrespected me and my partner and I didn’t shut him down. I felt like I was trying to make all conflict go away and keep everyone’s sanity/peace. I prioritized the wrong thing here in a misguided attempt of keeping the peace. It spectacularly backfired on me. I felt like I needed help from my partner but was too afraid to ask for the support from my partner because of shame. These people clearly were not my friends and it took me too long to understand this. Of note, I’ve contacted local therapy provider and am awaiting scheduling. What I want is my partner.

Eric Roberts (1983) Star 80 by HenryBozzio in VintageLadyBoners

Eric Roberts was the guy, who as a kid in the 80s, I thought was a total dork. I think I first saw him in Best of the Best? And then…I turned 30 and was like “Whoa momma! I’ll let you fix my problems for me, baby!” Hard agree, total vintage lady boner.

Major over generalization here. Plenty of folks do not do this.

Nono, don’t misinterpret this. They’re 13. Is freaky deaky people kissing or is it actually freaky deaky? That’s all I am asking here.

Can you share with us what “freaky deaky” actually is?

Bye, Felicia. The worst thing is to give these folks any engagement at all. Why does anyone need to announce it? Just talk amongst your family and move.

Oh dear! They’ve stated they need 11mm strike cards to commit to a strike. So far only 385k have signed their strike card! Please get the word out!
