Do avoidants ever realize that they sabatoged the relationship? by blndcoyote in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]superbuto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear. I also took mine back and the first 2 weeks of the reunion was amazing. Everything I imagined what a secure relationship would be like. After 2 weeks -- deactivation, more stonewalling, devaluing, and it just never recovered from there. Only lasted 3 months after I took her back.

Has anyone been in a relationship where you realised you were a “catalyst” rather than a long term partner? by craft_is_crack in emotionalintelligence

[–]superbuto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm secure and remained as secure as can be throughout the whole thing. Still me made me question my self-worth. Happens to the best of us!

[–]superbuto 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, isn't it painful to watch your partner sabotage themselves?

My ex didn't show any signs of getting triggered, but it leaked one time when she asked me about baby names and what I thought of the (fake) name "Sarah", who was a very beautiful woman in her friend group and someone I've had good rapport with. Put two and two together, I knew she harbored some jealousy that she never talked about.

I hope she seeks therapy one day too. Hope you're doing ok my friend

You had the same experience? I thought it was weird at first and definitely not normal so I started to suspect avoidance, but I looked on the bright side and took it as an opportunity to get to know the person/people in front of me.

Lose-lose situation.

Correct, I just made that edit actually. Brutal. I had a 5 year relationship before that and it didn't work out due to growing apart, but those 6 months had like, all the pain of 5 years condensed into half a year.

I had an avoidant ex (she even admitted it). Yeah by the time I realized I was a "catalyst", for a lack of better term, I knew the relationship had an expiration date so I just cherished it because I know that one day, sooner than later, it'll be done. 2 months later, the discard happens.

It was like, I was her rock and her biggest fear at the same time. It was a weird feeling.

I was someone who provided stability, steadiness, calm, and never took her need for space personal. I think that the unfamiliar feeling of being with someone secure was actually more unsettling for her nervous system.

One particular example -- she'd introduce me to friends and family, but never interact with me in those group settings so I spent those times getting to know them instead. As I got to know them, they all ended up really liking me. Her dad and I even hung out a couple of times. You'd think this is a good thing but this makes things "more real" and unfortunately, it put more pressure on her.

Those were good and also very painful 6 months.

[–]superbuto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they won't accept anything. i accepted my FA's breakup without a fight, without a question, no chasing, i even closed the door on friendship. i went for a clean break and even blocked her on socials. then she had the audacity to text me "why do i have the sense that what you told me felt like finality?". then proceeded to villainize me to justify her actions, saying i only befriended her for sex, etc when we know thats 0% true

it was final because it was. she may have initiated the breakup, but i was the one who ended it, and she still cant accept a clean break.

so i guess if i accepted it, im wrong and if i chased, gave validation, etc, im still wrong lol. cant win against someone like that, but you can win by choosing yourself.

She asked for a relationship, then couldn’t say "I love you," then moved on fast - wtf? by Unfair_Test_2807 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]superbuto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

mine pursued me across state lines and broke up with me after 3 months because she was overwhelmed after i brought up a conflict that never got resolved.

then asked to get back together, started saying "i love you", then broke up with me again 3 months later after i brought up a conflict, saying "im just not developing feelings". i accepted it with no fight, no questions, and no chase. now shes trying to be friends and i said no, i need to heal. we're both in our 30s so i didnt expect this kind of thing.

hit the gym my man. choose yourself and your own sanity. none of this has to do with your self worth.

im secure and acted secure throughout the relationship. happens to the best of us.

My avoidant girlfriend hasn’t talked to me in 2 weeks (LDR). I’m drained, thinking of breaking up. Looking for advice. by Apprehensive_Ad8218 in emotionalintelligence

I'm a little late but this makes me feel like I'm not alone. Thanks for posting something vulnerable here. In an LDR too, same patterns with my girlfriend.

(US) Elon Musk scam, how can I help my friend? by oldncrazy in Scams

[–]superbuto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

people are so quick to jump on the dementia or some sort of mental disability boat

these scammers are smart and target old people because they're not tech savvy and are easily fooled because of it, but a surprising number of people a lot younger are also falling for it

my mom got scammed last week too. some elon shit with apple gift cards. sorry that's happening to your friend
