the strange things you miss about being in a relationship

[captain55]

Currently enjoying the single life, I must say that it's the better life, alpha...banging women constantly spinning plates and not catching feelings but there are some things i genuinely miss about having a real relationship.

1. I miss the pressure that came with satisfying my girlfriend sexually. It got my adrenaline going knowing she'd be out the door if I didn't live up to the previous.

2. I miss knowing that there was always the possibility my girl could cheat on me and that guys were after her, sure you get paranoid at times but its also kind of fun and gets your adrenaline going.

3. I miss having a highly desired woman calling me her man and holding me in high regard among her friends and family.

4. I miss the amount of ***** you get thrown at you just by being in a relationship with an attractive woman :crazy:

5. I miss being able to grow a beard for a week and still have a woman to **** me. The companionship and the daily phone call getting off work.

I've been screwed over by women so badly I don't get feelings anymore. I banged one of the hottest women I've ever been with in my life last night, and I felt no feelings or emotional connection whatsoever. That's the goal of most men here, and Im happy Im finally "there" but damn does it suck. I would love to fall in love again but I learned the hard way like we all do, cutting feelings off and spinning plates is the only way to protect your heart.

Hahaha, I know what you mean. You just stop feeling and become emotionless. The thing is, though, once you start to feel again, even slightly, you are going to be wishing that you didn't get emotional over anything, yet at the same time still wish you could feel emotions. It's pretty weird. I would just rather not feel then because getting very emotional over anything is weak behavior in my opinion, I NEVER EVER want to be weak because hey, we all know what it feels like to be weak.

It does kinda suck though because it's kind of bleak. And your life isn't really lively. Whatever though. You should get past this stage after a few months. Just learn to be emotional over he right things. Like only get emotional over happy things and under great situations, then shut off everything during crappy things. Or just be positive and happy all the time. That's what I try to do.

If you want adrenaline, go skydiving. If you want respect, be the President.

Totally up to you want you want, but you can easily get adrenaline and respect without being in a relationship. One has nothing to with the other.

Sadly, this is the DJ promised land.

My best GF was on the phone the other day complaining how I don't seem to care. I wasn't really paying attention and asked a random question and she ballistic, accusing me of changing the subject. But what is the alternative? To give them too much power. Been there, done that. It ends sadly.

I didn't have this examples in my last relationship so i can't say anything about-it.

But it something i need to experience to give an opinion.
