So what think we of overlap?

I think emotional affair and that to me is far worse than a quick physical shag, even if it wasn’t on a concrete garage floor.

You haven’t been ridiculed. Don’t talk rot.

The getting to know each other was the start of the relationship.at least read what I said.

PreseaCombatir · 19/10/2018 19:37

You most probably feel the way you do, because you know how you treat men, and are scared that other women will ‘turn’ the head of your partners, the same way that your head gets ‘turned’.
It’s normal jealous behaviour that is often displayed by cheaters.

Thenewdoctor · 19/10/2018 19:42

Again. Don’t talk rot. Your posts are here and on the ither thread. You got close to this man and decided he was a better option than your current BF so dumped the current to shag The option.

What's wrong with that ? I didn't cheat or mislead anyone ?

lornar123 · 19/10/2018 22:59

And I accept my partner might have his head turned, I just reserve the right to be envious and sad when that happens. And I would expect him to tell me and not say it meant nothing because I believe sex never means nothing.

Lornar123 what you did is the very definition of an emotional affair.

OP posts:
lornar123 · 20/10/2018 08:19

It wasn't an emotional affair at all I had known the guy all of two weeks when I split up with my then boyfriend.

FYI my first boyfriend and I broke up at the end of uni because he was moving abroad, me to a different city. We realised that given our age it was best to call it a day. Of course I was sad but we had both prepared for it.

I moved to a new city to start a job, not meaning to sound big headed but I've never been short of male attention, so within a week I had been asked out quite a few times. There were 3 who I thought "maybe" about so I went on dates with them all so I could get to know them. What I did not do is shag them all and decide which was the best.

If I felt that I would want to be with one (and I did) I would date him for longer, I would ask him what he was looking for etc whether he was single. Men obviously can lie about this stuff but in this case he was. Had he said "well I'm shagging this bird on and off for the last 8 months or so but it's not a relationship and I'll stop that now" I would run for the hills.

Thenewdoctor · 20/10/2018 08:20

But you said on the last thread you’d only shag them and stay in a relationship if they were the best sex ever.

Doesn’t matter how long it was it was still an emotional affair.

You don’t have any business to judge anyone else’s sexual history because it’s none of your business.

I'm judging in the context of their suitability as a partner to me and in that case I can judge if I like.

Thenewdoctor · 20/10/2018 08:24

That’s not quite what you were doing. You were judging Jacques and others who didn’t conform to your —double— standard.

OP posts:
lornar123 · 20/10/2018 09:00

It would only be a double standard if I didn't view sex as an expression of something, or if I only cared about my sexual partner for his genitals and didn't see him as a whole person. The only double standard to me is with people who say sex with people sometimes means something and sometimes does not.

Thenewdoctor · 20/10/2018 09:04

Some people don’t see sex in the way that you do.

That’s really the issue. And you can’t get your head around that and think you have some right to judge. Why?

This ^^

I feel like I'm just reading a text conversation between 2 people- maybe swap numbers ladies?

Fifithefoof · 21/10/2018 18:44

Blimey. Thread 3. I least I can't be blamed for this one! 

Thenewdoctor · 21/10/2018 18:46

lornar123 · 21/10/2018 19:34

I judge them to be either emotionally stunted in that they don't bond with people the way most people do and that is confusing. As I judge anyone who displays outward affection but actually feels indifferent.

@lornar123 after all of your spite and judgement you finally showed that you were a total hypocrite with moral judgement that was actually (in our opinion) way worse than ours so, for me at least, I feel like there's no point or need to engage with you anymore.

Thenewdoctor · 22/10/2018 09:46

You really don’t get it Lornar and you never will. And all the manipulative twaddle you write is just that. Manipulative designed to force people to agree with you.

Your sales force training won’t work here. Good luck.

OP posts:
lornar123 · 22/10/2018 09:48

@Fifithefoof so you think that because my actions don't match my rhetoric (in your opinion, I strongly deny that as you can see if you read the thread) that makes the argument wrong ? Take your feelings about me out of it, what is it about what I've written above you think I've got wrong ?

lornar123 · 22/10/2018 09:51

@ftfoawygtfosm. You're right in that I absolutely do not get it. Of course given what's happened to me I am questioning how I relate to other people.

@Fifithefoof

I am not, as you have consistently claimed, mentally unstable although I admit I am a bit sad at the moment because odcircumstances. You might think that investing so little in your interactions with others that there is nothing they can do to hurt you makes you same but it actually comes across as a slightly psychopathic lack of empathy.
