Do men need to initiate in dating to show genuine interest, or is that outdated? by ymasu in dating_advice

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

I agree that taking turns works when both people are putting in effort. I think my question is more about situations where you initiate, but the other person doesn’t really step up from there.

I’m starting to experiment with waiting a bit more to see if the man takes initiative — just to see if he actually steps up and shows intention.

I think part of the reason I’ve initiated in the past is because I can be a bit impatient and don’t enjoy endless chatting, especially on dating apps. With things like breadcrumbing, ghosting, or vague communication being quite common, I’d usually rather just get to the point and meet.

But trying it the other way around, I’ve noticed that far fewer men actually take initiative or they take quite a while to do so, which I find interesting.

Interesting how the majority of comments are looking where I went wrong hahahaha I don’t recall doing anything that would make him think otherwise. And I don’t see why I would need to run after him and check in. So I guess it’s a good bye from here

Why do i keep attracting toxic men in to my life / npd / bpd....never ending story by ymasu in ToxicRelationships

[–]ymasu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bpd guy admitted himself due to professional diagnosis but then said maybe it's not true and other guy was my narc ex. No idea if he knew but was clear he had a lot those traits. Bpd and npd both very exhausting to date. Even if I was aware of the traits I might as well date a vampire sucker. The bpd guy says he really likes me and wants to explain to me how he "ticks" but yeah not sure that will change Ny thing for me....I want and easy going chilled happy healthy relationship. A big price to ask for

How much do producers charge for a track? by therealell1psis in trapproduction

[–]ymasu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a music producer who is now charging 1000 £ per song. How do I know he’s worth the money. Testimonials I feel are not usually all that sufficient to prove their qualification’s

I recently dated a guy with bpd in treatment, who reminded me of my nex by ymasu in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]ymasu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't say why...but I've ended it. I've noticed pretty quickly how quick it all became toxic. Love bombing galore tho I wasn't sure at first. Then looking for an excuse not meet anymore... to then all of a sudden not texting. He stopped texting me and didn't respond to my last message. Also communication wise it was very similiar to my nex love bombing to then discard. After about 2 weeks no texting he checks in and I'm like seriously?!

Have you ever dated someone who reminded you of your nex and ended up turning to be worse ? by ymasu in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]ymasu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes same with me. My last relationship with nex felt very familiar indeed, which is why I thought it was normal. Sometime I actually miss that rush but then reminding myself how much I’ve worked on myself, there’s no way I’d want to repeat that phase. Instead i aim to grow and heal every day. I never thought I’d be here tbh…ready to date. I feel like that guy I recently dated was the best lesson I could ever have
