Lost all sense of security LMAO :'(

Broke up, but could not stop comparing myself to these "alpha males" who seemingly drew incredible enjoyment from relationships and dating without a single headache suffered

Fast forward

Met with ex and asked why they did what they ddid, said what they didd, where and whether i messed up and if i was different (socially, economically, intelligence, attractiveness etc) wouldve changed their treatment

Turns out, ex had personal issues with a parent which bled into how they treated me.

It was never about me, after all. This conversation was helpful, but I still feel like my self confidence and esteem is deeply lacking.

aNyways, keep dropping these banger posts i appreciate your "objective, unopinionated" reflections, and you dont leave a call to action for the reader as if you knew something the reader didnt.

I mean, feels more like I am reading your own reflection rather than being served something that was intended to received by an audience, and I personally enjoy and find I can read this peacefully.

if that makes sense?
