Ugh i hate this

Post Reply New Topic

dunno if this happens to anyone else.. but after some success with the opposite sex, does the individual ever become the object of your obsessive capacity?
I dunno why this happens to me, whenever i get somewhere with a girl, i often can't take my mind off her, it's all i wanna do, its all i want to talk about...
then what happens is my mind convinces myself of her innate superiority to myself (Ie: id never want to join a club that would want me as a member) then i often feel like shes too good for me, totally walk on eggshells and kill the whole thing, whats even worse is i can't stop thinking about the idea of her, rather than actually her..

ITs like im in a moronic cycle, where i get attracted to someone (in the way above) > wait to have sex > get together.. ect
Or get attracted to someone > don't get sex > wait for myself to get over said person, which can take ages...
I can't even focus on other girls during the waiting period, so my love life is entirely tangled up...

It isn't even every girl i go for, does anyone else get this crap?

Yes, the same happens to me. To the point that I often jeopardise the whole thing.

I dunno if this crap happens to normal folk though..
But its like all i can think about, but i shouldn't be in this deep, already i wanna know why it happens so i can avoid it in future, the next few months of my life are ruined..

Anyone feel that it causes them issues?
it totally blows

Yes, and flaking/blow offs/standing me up is common enough that it's a frustrating tendency.

it happened to me saturday morning.. i got her number ect, now i just cannot think of A. a reason to call her.
B. im feeling a strange desire to not contact her.. cos i don't want to ruin something, that wont happen if i don't contact her?

i still can't think how i have put this girl on some kinda pedestal.. madness

Happens to me a whole hell of a lot......and when it's unrequited it is much harder to move on. Essentially, they become strong feelings you can never truly explore. In my opinion thats way worse than having a relationship and then having it end in disaster.

I do this. Meet someone I like, get obsessive about them, put them on a pedestal and convince myself they'd never want anything to do with me, while all the time trying to get brave enough to tell them I like them, as I'm way too awkward to show them, but it doesn't work as I go all stupidly shy and tongue-tied around them (so how on earth do I think I'd manage to have a real relationship, eh?)

Then I spend weeks crying when they get a girlfriend, and months trying to get over the heartbreak, which is so stupid as I never had anything real beyond a light friendship with them in the first place! Meanwhile trying to get over them is stopping me looking around for other men I might like and want to date. How much of a dummy am I!

But DefinitelyKmart, you've done well in getting her number, I'd guess that means she'd like you to call her, and if you were dirty-talking that's another good sign. Can you text her and ask her if she's free to chat?
