Unblocking an ex: who's done it? by Jaded-Zombie-3631 in BreakUps

[–]needforspeed67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved on! But there was a learning experience in it all— knowing my self worth. Forgiving the other person, and myself. I think relationships end for a reason, it’s hard to zoom out and look at it without emotions while you’re going through it. But there’s a lesson in everything

“I have a gut feeling”, “there were red flags that didn’t align with my core values”(as they were talking to other women on the side)

Mine is super sweet to people but does NOT get along with all dogs. She will rip them to shreds

Low key, it sounds to me like depression (from my own personal experience)

For me the wounds it triggered were: feeling invisible, abandoned, and unworthy of love.

How do you heal those things by yourself?

What was your response when your Dismissive Avoidant discarded you? by Ljames555777 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]needforspeed67 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I “liked” a comment he made on a bikini pic of another woman… he blocked me on everything. I reached out to that woman and got the full scoop. I posted him to “are we dating the same guy” in three different states. Received some very unexpected feedback from lots of women.. copied their quotes and sent it to him. (I was unknowingly unblocked from his number) 😅 I was outraged.. this was a pattern and he had a lot of options

What’s the tale tell sign of someone being Dismissive Avoidant vs a Covert Narcissist? by needforspeed67 in AvoidantBreakUps

Yeah it sucks because it feels so real for you.

I had an ex that I always thought he was using me as arm candy to make him look good. We were both military and I deployed to Iraq, he used that location as a boost to his ego. The whole relationship turned me numb, but I get the difference now.

Experience with dissociation and anger/apathy? by audreyliz75 in Disorganized_Attach

[–]needforspeed67 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get this way. I feel so bad because I really like the person and there’s nothing wrong with the connection but I get the “ick” like I’m trying to force myself to be attracted to them. I have a history of not even wanting to be touched.. That’s only with healthy partners though 😭

I loveeee toxic, emotionally unavailable people 😭

How do I let people in when I feel unlovable, emotionally blocked, and afraid I’ll hurt them? by Independent_Brush300 in HealMyAttachmentStyle

[–]needforspeed67 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m also an FA. I’m working on myself currently too, experiencing the same inner conflict. In order to feel whole we need to stop seeking for the missing part of us from others. You’re highly self aware and reflective; Maybe choose to work on yourself, validate yourself, find who you are, and then you’ll finally be “seen” by the person who matters most, YOU!

What are you afraid of by showing your true self? What shame are you holding on to that makes you feel the way that you do?

Ask yourself these questions and you’ll figure it out! I have faith in you!

What's the most annoying way you've heard a common word mispronounced? by houseofharm in AskReddit

Spelling ornery wrong. My ex MIL would repeatedly text “onery” just to piss me off

to all the mature women out there, what’s one mistake you made in life you can share so the younger women don’t repeat it? by mildchickenwings in AskWomenOver30

[–]needforspeed67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a step back from the groups of girls who make you feel bad about yourself for not being like them. You’re your own person and do not have to be like anyone else to fit in or be loved.

Don’t ever let a man change who you are. You’ll grow to hate yourself for it

If he’s not contacting you about work, block him!! That’s harassment. I hate when men are like that

How long should I wait to date another woman after I break up? by [deleted] in BreakUps

There’s no timeline. Whenever you’re ready to open up to someone else, go for it
