I know people read short things rather than this type of writings, but let it stay here just in case anyone enthusiastic decides to go through it, it ain't bad

Men who want no strings and no drama should get an Inflatable Girlfriend for a sex partner- not someone who is real...

Oh, girl!
This!

Is exactly what happened with my first contact, on a bdsm site.
I could not get any support or understanding from kinky friends.

Almost every one! told me, it was mé, who was the problem, here!
Not him!

I exploded! inside.
How can *you* build trust, when the other person is not an emotional adult to face his own?
They never seem to understand that qeustion, strange? DOnt you think?

Because i knéw he was never ever "home" for me....
Trying to "blame" it all on mé....
I called him; emotional cold, or dead....

It is like you tell about my encounter with dominant men on sites and in real...

Thank you for this writing, it reminds me of my worth, as a woman, person, submissive, slave, masochiste

I do completely understand what you have been through and how you may felt back then, Rosa. And I am truly sorry for that kind of experience. Having had something similar, and with the chance given to read this article, made me realize it was not my fault to have certain feelings, and need to share them, or react to something someone else did. It was me, the pure me. And it was somebody else who didn't know how to deal with the bare me, but instead, put the blame on, even a nick "drama queen"... you have no idea how bad I felt then.

"emotional complexity"......this says so much and just resonated with me. It is just so critical to remember that we are humans with lord knows how many hurts and pains hidden deep inside. It's important to take those hurts and learn from them so that we can each become a better person, friend, lover. Is it hard to do.....you're damn right it is and I think that's where the emotional complexity comes in.


ExNameForUse replies on 11/21/2021 4:21 am:
I think we all are a bundle of emotional complexity. And I think that we all are aware of that fact. The difference is in our willingness and strength to face them, name them, and deal with them. That's not easy work. But if someone isn't, then it's not really nice to minimize and etiquette others who are. As I said, I was called a "drama queen". It was supposed to be funny, but it only caused me to turn from an open passionate woman into a quiet always agreeable person, while all the silenced emotions were building inside of me. And once they had to be spoken, I got another etiquette - emotional trader...

Holy fuck. I think I may be in this type of relationship right now. I'm going to need to digest this.


ExNameForUse replies on 11/21/2021 4:10 am:
There is one important thing I learned right here, dear Rayne, from lovely people on here - to trust my gut, to trust that inner feeling even when there is no evident support for it. It's there for a reason. I think dear Pac, was the first to tell me that, and others fully supported that advice.
So here it goes for you too. You are a beautiful, smart, desirable lady. Take good care of yourself, please.

So many good points Ex...

The bottom line is our self worth. And how no-one has the right to take it away, or minimize it!

It's become easier to see these "detachable types" now. After so many conversations with them...

Really sorry you had to deal with all that bullshit..

It relates a great deal with my past relationship, Pac and it was a good insight into some dimmed, foggy situations I have been through an as being emotionally involved, wasn't able to understand what was going on, and where was I in all that, what I did wrong, why my love wasn't enough, etc... it's all there in my past blogs, all the stages of my post-relationship trauma, and it is all pretty well summed up in this article... I am happy you read it, Pac. Than you!

Good job, There was a lot of thought put into and its very well written.


ExNameForUse replies on 11/21/2021 4:01 am:
Thank you, I have been too fascinated with this article when I first read it months ago, and after that reading it again more than once, each time with a more clear understanding, as it relates a great deal with my past relationship.
I was sure it could be helpful for many dear people on here to read it too.

Is it alright if i copy past this to FET?

On my profile there?
my name is Esperansa, on FETLIFE.

Oh, i dó understand how you must have felt while in that situation, when those harsh words have been used againtst you.
I know.
Those men, are not emotional avaiable at all.
I have met a lot of those....
You just have to walk around them with a real big curve...


ExNameForUse replies on 11/22/2021 2:58 am:
I dont mind, dear Rosa, I have myself borrowed it from P.S. I love you page, as it states below the post.
The more people read it, it may help someone to see and understand some things better and I believe that, itself, is a good thing.
For the rest, god knows why it was good to experience what I did. There were many good moments, but also some with painful consequences. Thats life.
