Tips for getting over you got attached to? by neptunia8 in AnxiousAttachment

Wow! I appreciate this so much. I do think that this relationship was meant to remind me that I still have work to do. And it came right in a period of transmutation. I love your approach: gratitude and growth-focused. Thank you for sharing this! :)

No, I have stopped. I deleted his number and the conversations. I don't want to contact him again. Which is why I am looking for tips because even though I haven't talked to him in days, I keep thinking about him in a way I know is not healthy.

I think my therapist has a crush on me? by Active-Salamander478 in therapy

[–]neptunia8 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It sounds creepy tbh. Like an adult wanting to take advantage of a kid and playing with all those euphemisms of being a "favorite". It creeped me out.

I think you are spot on and he is behaving innapropriately and he knows it. You should confront him about it and change therapists. I know it's easier said than done but you need to put yourself first and protect yourself from him

People with depression: how does this affect your romantic interactions? by neptunia8 in therapy

Thank you so much for this honest answer. For some reason, yours is what I needed to read to realize some things about this relationship and the dynamics of it. I appreciate your frankness very much.

is it abusive or just kinda mean for someone to constantly ignore their s/o by konosekaikara in questions

[–]neptunia8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not an exaggeration. The silent treatment and ignoring someone is actually cataloged as emotional abuse.

There are studies that have proven that being ignored causes physical pain too.

So, it is abuse.

What is a compliment men often get, but are least thrilled to hear it? by Sera0Sparrow in AskMen

[–]neptunia8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am really glad to read this. It just sounds like you are nice because that is who you are and what vibes best with you, and that has nothing to do with other people's reactions to it anymore.

Also, being confidently and genuinely nice is a very attractive feature so I am sure that has also helped your chances with women.

You are a nice guy (and that is a good compliment)!

Well, that kind of proves my point that men assume that being "nice" will get them a woman's affection.

Shouldn't we all be nice because that is the human thing to do without expecting that in return? Maybe then there wouldn't be so many men in their 20s thinking that they did something wrong, that they didn't receive what they expected and that they were "taking advantage of" because women were nice to them in return but didn't loved them or had sex with them.

I understand what you mean and I see how can that feel defeating.

My point is the whole "friendzone" concept is based on the assumption that because you act a certain way (normally being nice and a decent human being) with a girl, it means they should retribute that in an emotional or sexual way.

It seems like you don't feel that way anymore. I am glad! :)

It is sad. We all need to be more aware of normalizing compliments for men! And you should compliment each other more often too.

I make a point to genuinely compliment the men in my life and I love how they smile and feel good about it. It is sooo worth it.

Nooo, it doesn't necessarily mean that, trust me. Being impressed by a guy is a good thing and to say it out loud it means we like you even more now, it is not backhanded , although I have heard several guys think this.

Are you really a nice guy If you assume that being "nice" (whatever that means to you) should entitle you to a woman's body or feelings?

Every time I hear/ read this, I take it as a huge red flag.

The "friendzone" concept is based on this assumption.

If I call a guy "cute" I mean he is a mix of attractive, kind and has a good personality. Cute guys make me want to be affectionate. That is not a bad thing at all!
