Yep...perfect sense! Typically it takes a long time to feel that level of intimacy and trust. When it hits you like lightening, it leaves you feeling very unsure of what is right and what is wrong, what is real and what is fantasy.

I think lots of people worry about losing friendships more than they worry about ironing this out. And it does often lead to hurt feelings. And Mono... after all those beatings... I just hope you can still walk, talk and... whatever. Anotherbo ![]() |

Ari- empathy if you got burned by friends dumping you (though seems like you're over it if you were) either way glad you now seem to be in a mostly happy place, gives me hope Quote:
None the less (I've been thinkiing about bounderies alot recently) I suppose I still feel I deserve to be treated with kindness and respect and a degree of reciprocity by my friends. Obviously we all give and take different things from each other and it's not a matter of checks and ballances, but I do think its possible to *feel* (and this may be a defence system) "used" by someone who takes more than they give and however unwittingly shifts ground rules to suit their needs (prob what you were aluding to in the serial monogamy point above) Although to be honest its probably also a matter of open communication and honesty re establishing what kind of thing you've got going on in the first place (the joy of hindsight!). I think thats what you mean by input/output LR? lots of what you said resonates with me, ta Any way I live and learn. I know I now check out that people I am/get involved with are at least emotionally poly. peace and love |
