I "Am Very Open-minded"


She said she needed to see me so I dropped by, and made sure I brought her dinner. I got her favorite salad from her favorite place, and even ordered it without bleu cheese, just as she always does. I think she really appreciated that I actually listen to her, because she doesn't think anyone listens to what she says, does or wants.

She asked me over because she had some issues that were important to her and needed input from someone that won't "judge" her. I listened, was supportive, empathetic and understanding. All was going well until I got a text from, as she put it "that foolish woman" and the minute my attention wavered from her, she seemed annoyed, put off, even a little jealous. She seems to have issues with any woman who captures my attention, yet when I pointed this out, she got very annoyed.

My point is, I'm a bit confused by her irritation. If Shes not "in love" with me as she says, what's the issue? I support her hopes, dreams, her viewpoints, so why can't she support me if someone wants to give me what she can't?

It sounds to me like she wants you on her terms and available as necessary. Someone else in your life might interfere with that availability. You're a thoughtful attentive person...don't let her take advantage of you ok?

Yeah, I tend to agree. It feels pretty lousy, but breaking the cycle isn't very easy at the moment. Thank you nik for your very sweet comment tho, I truly appreciate it 😀

Haha yeah. She seems confused. I don't think it's fair to tell someone you're not in love with them yet still get all jealous and bothered. That strikes me as mind games, although I could be wrong. But it sure would be a red flag and I would proceed with caution (even with just the friendship).🤔

What's funny is that she doesn't even seem aware she's doing it until I point out the behavior. I agree, she's confused, and I also agree that it's a mind game of sorts. Thank you for taking the time to comment 😀
