    Haha internet connects us in weird ways 🙂

    Yes this was my question and the “fix” thing, i was referring to the “pressure and responsibility” and the distance i put in between, because its not something that i feel consciously, so how can i stop it?

    Hey anita

    I realized the first thing about pressure, but i cant fathom the other one about closeness. I’ve never felt it before with any other girl (i guess it was more superficial? less time?)

    Yes and how do we change that? 🙂

    I can’t really remember how love was “given” to me. She asked me if i was ever “needed too much” from someone and that made me resent this feeling, but my whole life i was needed by people to help them with different things, until one time i cut it all off.

    I know but i can’t feel it consciously, so how can i “fix” it if i can’t feel it?

    I think it feels like responsibility for sure, pressure idk..maybe?


    @thomas

    I have most of those traits, but i struggle with 1,2,3,6.

    So how does one reach Nirvana? 🙂

    Hey anita

    Oh u mean something like a bar, i got it now.

    But how can we understand?

    I have been familiar with the alcohol since i was 14 haha, we were just drinking it on the streets.I just stopped because it ruins my stomach now.

    Thank you for your thoughts, i think my mind is triggered 24/7, dunno how to set it at ease.
    Today with the therapist, i realized that when people love me or express their love, i feel it like pressure and responsibility, so i guess i have to re-learn. Also she told me that to her it seems like i have feelings from a “distance” and when the other person comes too close, i dont feel them.

    Thank you 🙂

    Local taproom? What is this? (oh okay i didnt think of that). I understand, i appreciate your replies, they might help me out too 🙂

    Oh i dont know really. My guess would be chaotic house and relationships? I notice that i am anxious towards my relationships, avoidant when sensing rejection and completely avoidant towards my family/friends.

    @thomas, what is the AA?


    @anita

    Its ok i wasnt home either 🙂

    Yes i would do that sometimes. I would put myself down to please others.

    For example how im feeling right now. I feel depressed/depleted/empty. I want to be like before.

    Hello anita

    Its so hard for me to accept things that i cant change..feels really bad and hopeless.

    U are right on what u said, we can only calm others to a degree. Cant be responsible for them or them for us..

    Yes i think thats what i do.

    I would just make the other person a little upset/angry but jokingly, nothing too serious, or spark some light/fun jealousy, but not in a toxic way.

    Thats how i felt like and i dont understand why. The truth is, i did feel like she leaned heavily on me regarding her well-being at times, like she depends on me for her happiness and everyday mood, we became too codependant/enmeshed? what is the word i am not sure.

    We are the same age yeah..I have the same experience as you..

    Exactly, that’s how my mind started perceiving our connection after that moment, like an obligation. I know it could be because of emotional burnout but idk for sure yet.
    I think i started feeling like i am responsible for her feelings after that and it pushed me away.

    Idk if that translates to fear? I didnt feel conscious fear, just a sense that now i “have to” response in a way to match that or that i am “responsible” for her in a way. Could this be it?

    🙂

    I feel comfortable giving and giving to my SO, rather than receiving. I feel “awkward” when i receive love/things and sometimes i feel pressure to “perform” or “give back” something that i can’t. How would u describe me fearing closeness? I mean on which point?
    Chaos keeps me from being bored haha

    Hey anita, thank you very much for taking time to search all those things 🙂

    Yes, i did have my mother up to the age of 22, but i cant find the connection between her and my female “partners”.

    I don’t feel pressured at all dont worry, i just really can’t correlate my parents to my partners. I suppose it has an immense effect but i still can’t connect situations of the past to my present ones (for example the one with this girl).
    I make a lot of excuses for my parents and for most people and their behaviours, i know that. I always see their side of the story and be quick to validate them, often leading to neglecting my own feelings and side.I feel like “the bigger person”.
    Chaos feels so natural to me and i often thrive in chaotic work environments, i noticed that in most of my relationships, when things flow easy and calm for too long, i instigate some “drama” to keep the spark alive. Not anything serious though.

    Hello anita

    I dont sleep well in the past 2 months but im trying, i hope u did!

    Hmm, i seem to enjoy emotionally available partners so far, unavailable cause me to lose interest instantly (if it’s in the beginning)

    My sisters are younger so they didn’t experience her like i did. Things got a bit calmer after but they still got into fights with her, nothing like me tho. I honestly can’t connect the two (my experience with her and me growing up)

    I felt responsible as in, not anger them so they won’t fight each other/me.

    Oh that was kinda the same for me with mine. I was always alert regarding her feelings, not wanting to upset her and so on.

    I really cannot consciously relate my mother to any of my romantic interests. Its really weird because people say that u seek in relationships the kind of relationship u had with ur mother but i really dislike conflicts..

    I can’t remember if i ever felt like my love for her was a burden, was yours for your mother? How would you describe it?

    Yes i’d wish that too, but i guess we had karma from previous lives haha

    At times i also felt responsible for my parents feelings.

    I am off to sleep aswell, talk soon 🙂

    @thomas168
    I really want to feel again, i am not quite sure yet but i am exploring.

    Hey anita
    No no im not leaving yet haha, if i do so it will be for me to clear my head of all this 🙂
    Tell me, what exactly do u want me to explain further?

    Yes i think that’s exactly how i feel like. When people make me responsible for their feelings i dont feel that good.

    But i didnt feel it consciously, only a little bit perhaps. Do u think it was all a fantasy that blew off for me?
