Say it Ain’t so, Joe, er, Pete

Say it Ain’t so, Joe, er, Pete

I never thought of myself as someone afraid of to commit. After all, here I am searching for Mr. Right. Of course when he comes along I’ll want a monogamous relationship with him, right? At least that how the script goes in my head: Meet a great guy. Go on a few dates with him. Decide to be exclusive monogamous relationship – or not?

Friends, Romans, Former Shags, Countrymen: I, Anjelika Jinx now have a boyfriend. I feel like this is a monumental statement that I need to yell from my balcony as it’s been a while since I’ve said that.

It’s early days, so who knows how it will go? My boyfriend, let’s call him Pete, is the real deal. Tall, handsome, polite, intelligent, terribly nice, sweet, adoring and crazy about me. If ever there were a doting boyfriend, then he’s the epitome.

I should be happy. I should be on cloud 9. This is what I wanted isn’t it? There’s this part of me that’s thinking, “He’s too keen. This is happening too quick.”

The fucked up thing is, if he rejected me just a little I would be SO into him. Maybe it’s the “treat ‘em mean to keep ‘em keen” philosophy? Rejection is one of the most desirable qualities I dig in a guy. If a guy is standoffish, emotionally unavailable or distant I like him more. Why?

Why can‘t I just appreciate a good guy when he comes along? Maybe there are some things I’ll never know the answer to.

congratulations!

for me, a year ago i would have said to your post 'women!' but i feel after experiencing a relationship with someone i know that i couldn't possibly ask someone to marry me if i hadn't had an argument with them. if he sticks after an argument, seal the deal! become 'mrs. pete' and who knows after that...

best of luck with the relationship.

This is the problem of my life! There is just something so cosmically alluring about men who treat you like shit... that said, It's crazy unhealthy! Nice guys are way better.

Why don't you just go with the flow? You should know what you want and need by now?! All relationships are a compromise, finding Mr. Perfect is near impossible. So if you accept that, and appreciate what you have found - then you just might end up happy!

How did you meet him/fall in love ? I want to read romantic details...

My theory why girl like bad guy: Bad guy seems to be more a challenge... Can I get him ?

or maybe the mother instinct... Can I teach/educate/convert the bad guy ?

or maybe little girl instinct... A bad guy can better deal with bad guys and protect me...

or the sexual instinct... bad guys have often more confidence and charisma = good properties for my children...
