The golden rule doesn't apply to interpersonal relationships, what can I say?
I just wish once I could find someone who would give me the kind of support I give everyone I know in person and have them stick around.
And I hate relationship games that start before things settle in. FFS.
:roll: Go figure, 23 and still haven't outgrown this.
Trust me, I understand this. And I'm 33, so give yourself a break. I've become so ridiculously honest when I know what I feel and want that that it's turned into complete foot in mouth syndrome. Not that I wasn't like a bull in a china cabinet already. I just don't know how to not say what I'm feeling. It's when I don't express it that the games start, and I don't want to do that anymore. But, yeah, I have no inner dialogue, and sometimes it freaks people out. At least I know that I was completely out there, that's what makes any rejection somewhat ok, for me at least. But you'll get there. Every relationship you have gets you closer. That's what I've been told anyway.
God, I hope I didn't just sound like Dr. Laura.
