So true😭 I left one city to come to live with him, then later on, he said you shouldn’t have. And showed more signs of disrespect, telling me to clean the flat during the first week of living with him, making me to. Although he was a student at that time and I was working and cooking and baking. He was going to be a pilot, I kept clinging to his future status, but he was younger and so immature with mother issues. He said that he loved me, we had several dates, I decided to come and live with him for a holiday month in my home town, rented a flat, but the landlord said only extended stay for 6 months. I said ok and so started our living. With lots of issues, now divorced. Every time I got ill, he wanted to leave. Said I love him too much, was avoidant, that broke my heart, I distanced myself, in the end he said that I didn’t love him🤦I developed anxiety disorder in this marriage, had lots of health issues, he got tired of it, went to a psychologist and whined her about me. They started to “set his boundaries”, after that he injured my arm severely in a fight. He said he was setting his boundaries. He and psychologist were making the new version of him🤦said that he had worked through his mother issue trauma with me and I killed a man inside him, although before the relationship he was prone to depression and self-deprecation. I lost 5 kilos within 5 months of divorce period. Absolutely shattered. He walked out on me a year after the wedding blaming me for being ill. He did so the second and final time now 8 years later. F... him. We used to be close friends which childhood traumas. Traitor.

*A man that's disrespectful, cannot be turned into a respectful one!* This is so so important to understand!

@@emmanuellathomas3487 I think it’s also fair to say that men are more action based. So when they see a woman act fine with anything he does, then she must actually be fine with it. The same way women are the opposite and tend to listen to words. “He said he loves me so why was he so rude?” She’s not looking what he did but what he said. A guy hears a woman say “I’m really mad that you’re late” and then she waited the half hour and still tried to act like a perfect girlfriend that accommodates him. Is she really that upset? Does she really feel that way? She’s not acting like it at all. That’s usually why men respect some women and not others. They perceive action as how you truly feel. Not words.

There's only 1 rule and it applies for EVERYONE! People who respect themselves will always respect others no matter what. Even if they don't agree or like the person, they'll respect him/her but just choose to keep them at a distance or not associate with them. Judge no one.
@KelleyBroussardMackaigРік тому
I vehemently disagree with everything you said. First of all... "Judge no one." I truly despise it when people say this, while it sounds all virtuously good-hearted, the truth is that it is impossible NOT to judge people. Not only is it impossible, but it's a necessary requirement to make judgement calls about people, how else are you supposed to discern the difference between those who are good people with good intentions vs those who are problematical people with bad intentions. So, frankly that is a moot hypothesis, and it's a grossly disingenuous one at that. Secondly. "People who respect themselves will always respect others no matter what." With all due respect, that is a horrendously erroneous postulation. People with narcissistic tendencies tend to have an enormous amount of genuine respect for themselves. Some will argue that it is their exaggerated self inflated ego that masks itself as self-respect. Either way - folks with NPD are notorious for being highly disrespectful of others. Moreover, some say that "respect is something that must be earned". I agree with that notion only in regards to the respect that we have for ourselves. You see, every time we chose action over ease, we develop an increasing level of self-worth, self-confidence, thereby earning respect for thyself. I believe that having respect for others, should always be the default. Now it's true that one who lacks personal boundaries invites the lack of respect from others. I think that the key is, to learn respect and honor the complications of other peoples lives. Treat people the way you want to be treated. Talk to people the way that you want to be talked to.

That's naive at best. That's like saying follow the Golden Rule; do unto others as you'd have done unto you. Well, many are sadists and they would love it if you hurt them so their Golden Rule is not yours. Also, many believe women are second class citizens and should be covered from head to toe and it would be disrespectful to them if a woman showed any part of herself, even her face. In their Golden Rule she deserves to be killed if she disobeys. Their religious books tells them so. Same with all the other all male religions - it would be disrespectful to their God if they didn't harm women and keep them "obedient" and under "vows." Also, you HAVE to judge to have common sense. You look down a dark alley full of peeps that scare you, you chose to take the well lit route. You get the creeps while standing next to someone, you make a judgment call to leave. Sooooo many married couples are swing couples, most think, oh you're married, only you two, go to a party and it's chock full of "upstanding" citizens buck naked saying let's swing, you make a judgment call to stay or leave. There are oodles of situations every hour of everyday that we have to judge.

Respect is something that is passed down from generation to generation. If parents respect each other and respect their children and show it in the family, then the child will understand what it means to respect everyone else around. And then we will have conscious adult men and women who respect each other. And we have a completely different situation, when there is no respect in the family, nor is it taught anywhere, so what can we demand from a man or a woman in a relationship. This is upbringing. I also believe that mutual respect is very important in a relationship.

I agree with watching out for behaviors that suggest those motives. However, it seems to me that your specific criterion is just really confusingly & unrealistically nitpicky (not to mention ableist & likely pragmatically classist, given how many people don't get exposure to or don't intuitively understand whatever social norms & roles you're drawing on ideologies about). :/ I have it relatively easy since people with the female-person version of autism generally catch a break on social skills, & I'm a passably socially likeable person, but I would _never_ intuit this expectation from someone unless they said it unambiguously to me. (& yeah I do get how if you have to ask for a behavior then it doesn't matter because their compliance may be disingenuous -- I relate to this frustrating irony about communicating expectations to guys lol -- but I'm not arguing here that you or anyone shouldn't have preferences like that & care about the behavior ... I'm just arguing that snapping to judging people's motives over it seems really hasty). I mean, do you just expect dudes to magically know that you want them to take that much initiative with proposing a fully formed plan? (To me & I'm sure many others, naming a time & date requires having a prospective plan formed ... I can't just toss out arbitrary suggestions lol my brain doesn't allow for it.) What if they think you might want the question to be open-ended? What if they're used to different preferences or norms? What if they're wildly overthinking trying to ask you for a date & are afraid to come on too strong with it & are getting awkward? Like, yeah, watch out for guys with the kinds of lazy motives you described, the ones who mostly just want the Emotional Support Side Chick/the "at least _someone_ wants me" effect, I TOTALLY feel that one ... But I don't think it's reasonable or productive to use that specific/finite/subjective a standard for slapping that label on someone so fast.

@@ItsAsparageese I don’t expect a dude to have a fully formed plan when he asks me if I want to go out with him, but when he initiates a date and I accept, and he tells me he will follow up with me, I expect him to follow through with it (as the initiator). I saw him on a regular basis at work and there was plenty of time for him to follow up. I later learned he was quite the womanizer. His actions showed a lack of integrity on his part, and my expectations for him to follow up are not abnormal.

Once I waited 14 mins for a guy, the 15th min I stood up and walked away :) Also there was another date where the guy was looking at other women's body, after 20-30 mins I told him, excuse me, I need to go, I had this much time for a first talk. Of course I didn't accept calls from him afterwards. I had a lot of dates, when I was on the matefinder webpage, giving the chance of finding someone, but I didn't find, simply men are ungodly, I don't even know how to find a good guy, because even churches are full of pharisees.

Your first example happened to a good friend. After picking her up for the first few dates, she thought the relationship was off to a decent start until they made plans to meet at a venue one day and he left her waiting for hours. She knew where he worked so WE followed him home one day. After sitting outside of his home for about 45 minutes, his wife arrived home with their two young children. In retrospect, she should've simply refused future interaction with him but her friends were so upset that we convinced her to fact find to avoid his lies.

I've dated a man who told me in the beginning that he was not ready for a relationship but wanted to still date and keep it casual. At first, I was like ok no problem because he was super handsome, and he made me laugh, and we had fun things in common. Well, after 4 months of seeing him, I developed feelings, and it has been downhill from there. It has been almost 2yrs now, and we have had many arguments . He manipulates me and is not always honest because he feels he doesn't have to be. I fell in the trap of trying to show him what of a great woman I was and became very submissive to him. He took advantage of that weakness of mine, and I allowed him to use me. There was massive manipulation on both parts and now I just want out but everytime I get the nerve to be done and just block him altogether I chicken out because Im addicted to the good times and fantasy I created in my head. I feel bad because he told me in the beginning that he was not ready and I thought I could play along and he would fall for me but he didn't. A big "Situationship" is what I got. I need help. 😪

I'm not sure if I should be afraid and run or if I should stay sometimes.

Who cares if someone else is disrespectful to you or not? If you allow someone to disrespect you twice, you're not showing yourself any respect. You can't expect someone to do for you what you won't do for yourself. Not saying you should treat anybody mean that was mean to you, but don't put yourself around that person to allow them another chance to do it again. Learn who they are and stay away. If you don't know how to love yourself, start there. 💜 Be safe.

The first time this man rang me, he interrupted our chat and said I'll call you back my neighbours just turned up. Although it it took 2 hours for him to call back I accepted it and let it go not knowing the neighbour situation. The next day he was attentive and a real gentleman on our date couldn't have looked after me any better. He rang me a few days later and 20 minutes into our conversation he said I will call you back my neighbour has turned up. He hadn't called back 4 hours later so I attempted to ring him to check everything was all right but he didn't pick up. Minutes later he sent a message saying his neighbour had just left and he would call me the next day I said don't bother. I did find out later they are mates that just enjoy having a drink together......I said Bye Bye

I think the 'pleasing' side is the key here, wether it is a romantic or platonic, even professional relationships. I have zero self esteem, and often behave this way toward new people. I am like catnip for the people who likes an ego boost. It seems to happen with men more often than women; possibly because men tend to take the 'pleasing' behaviour as romantic or sexual interest, whereas women don't automatically assume that.

It was good advice. Not just for romantic relationships but all relationships, really. I've made some of the above mistakes with a fellow female houseguest who's been staying off and on fairly regularly over the last three years, and now I'm going to have to stop her staying over, which is sticky and complicated, with unwanted consequences. If I'd done the above, made my boundaries right at the start, maybe we could have managed her being here from time to time. As it is, now I have to do the drastic move of telling her the inn is closed, and she's in a very vulnerable space right now. I feel terrible about it, but she's intense, chaotic, and bad with boundaries [putting it mildly]. If I'd done the above, either she'd have learned to be respectful and so, welcome under my roof, or she would have gone elsewhere and spared me a lot of distress. I screwed up. But I'm learning.

I disagree with you that our behavior can cause men to disrespect us. A man who is respectful, will be respectful, no matter what. If we are "too nice", lose our self-respect and attractiveness etc. he might walk away from us - but even then he will do so respectfully and he will behave respectfully with us while he's still there. A good peson doesn't turn into a jerk just because the other person lacks self-esteem. A good person might not want to be in a relationship with a person who has low self-esteem - but they will still treat them respectfully. Our behavior CAN teach a disrespectful man either that it's okay to keep disrespecting us, or that it's not acceptable and that he will have to behave better to be around us. Yes that's true. Jerks do what they can get away with, so if we let them get away with it, they will continue, and if we don't let them get away with it, they will stop. Especially because men don't listen to words, they listen to actions. So it might even work. Fine, but the thing is, that was a disrespectful man to begin with. Do we really want to invest our time and energy to "train" a disrespectful man? Like he's a dog, or I'm his mommy? Is that really my job? Do we really want a man who behaves respectfully only because he was forced to? Do we really want to be with someone around whom we have to be constantly vigilant about other ways he might be disrespecting us? And having to "train" him every time? I feel tired just thinking about it.
@ankitaggarwal8366Рік тому
Link the attention you give him to how he treats you! That's so true. People who cannot treat others right don't deserve 1 minute of a person's time and energy. I come from an Indian culture where we are taught from a young age to stand by our relations through thick and thin, no matter what comes. But what's not explained in this properly is that you stand by your relations in bad times, you don't stand with bad relations. You stand by through difficulties not with people who are unnecessarily creating difficulties. No matter how bad the time, how we choose to treat people around us is still our choice. And even if the world around us becomes hell we have no business making the lives of people close to us hell by our unacceptable behaviour. They are also facing that hell externally. Why make it even internally?
