i asked him why he asked me to be with him seriously if this was what it was to come to? and his response was that he did want to be with me but i was controlling him and asking for too much. everything i complained about was stupid and that i was jealous of the girls he'd dance with, and see behind my back. he was very immature. honestly i dont think he was ready for a relationship. dont think he dated any girls seriously before me. this is the same guy that told me MUCH LATER that he slept with an older, fat lady in order for her to buy him shoes and dinner for all his friends. he had many issues. i just wish i had gotten to know him a lot more before i jumped in a relationship with him. i honestly moved too fast with him (for personal reasons--stupid, i know) and it's a lesson learned for sure.You made the right choice in cutting him. People bring out that 'insecure' label when they are doing something wrong and expect you to go for the drama. If you are going to do something, go in there to do it the right way. I don't understand why people go in relationships and try to do everything other than make it work. Why join the football team if you are never going to show up for practice, learn the plays and give 100% effort on the field? Don't be surprised you fail to perform and you get cut. Same thing with relationships.
These types just want to be out there doing dirt, but then have emotional security and a warm body to come home to after it's all said and done... and they will try to psychologically manipulate you into buying your drag. THEY aren't doing wrong, but rather it's some kind of emotional flaw on your part. You're bitter, you're insecure, etc...
Once you been there and done that, you recognize these games real quick. Come around playing games and it'll be game over. Respect makes relationships go so much smoother and I'm too old to accept anything less than a mutually beneficial relationship. High standards = high quality. You get in a relationship and let everything slide, then that relationship is going to be garbage. Two respectful people who are trustworthy and serious about each other = a beautiful thing. Got to pull the weeds and water the fruitful plans when order to eventually reap proper rewards down the line.
back to the thread though.... *no derailement*
