Posted May 16, 2017 @Hungry_Duck This is a trap I fall into, because I am paranoid due to family and my previous relationship, but I am also not very good at reading people's intentions, so I could easily think a good person is a bad person and a bad person is a good person. My thing is, if I get a hint of a situation being like ones I have had before, then those negative feelings rise up and it is hard to differentiate. There's a lot of shit. I don't live in reality, that's for sure. I'm gunna bring this up with a counselor to work through it.It's like this, push-pull nonsense. I can't live life assuming everyone is a player, or a sociopath. I don't know how to express my needs or to be honest with my emotions, or even how to identify them. I've been reading about players, the tricks men use, about insecure women, about push-pull, makes sense on paper but in practice not so much. I could meet the nicest man in the world and I would still think he is going to hurt me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
