This is a great reminder both for people who seek or are already in a relationship ❤️

My answers were:

...get angry.
...get angry.
...get easily annoyed.
...I want to be in control over the finances.
...my forever ongoing existential crisis.
...it doesn't really interest me.

My last answer differs depending on who I'm with.

My answers...

...stop the conversation or activity I am in and get to the bottom of what just annoyed me. If it has a carry over effect with me I will work it out alone on the heavy bag (punching) until I cant move my arms and legs from fatigue.

...Cry. I will retreat if I can but ultimately I choose to cry rather than bottle my emotions and wake up my PTSD. Its better for everyone.

...am sweet to a fault. I will finish what I am doing and get to bed or take a nap.

...I know my business around money. I have been taught well. Though I control the money in my marriage and manage all of the investments, move money around, and constantly watch the markets and am advised on future trends...when my hubby needs a check I hand him one.

...My husband's perception of me. I stay fit, dress well, eat right, and make sure I look as nice as possible for the love of my life. The specter of losing him terrifies me. He gets pissed when I tell him that, so we have to agree that he does not know what it's like trying to manage a normal life while co-existing with the demons of PTSD. I know it is ridiculous, but it's something I have to do.

...I am more than a handful around sex because I love it! That is all "his" fault because I was a virgin until he corrupted me 😉. He, too, is extremely fit, muscular, tall, and able to handle what I have to give. We still wreck a bedroom when the kids are not home.

@TexChik My father was a battlefield Marine Veteran but he was violent, drunk most of the time and not sensitive to children or even to women. I wish he had been like your adoptive father, it would have made a huge difference.

@cherokeepatti aww! I’m so sorry . Daddy retired as a Colonel. He saw lots of battlefield PTSD and watched those who found a way to cope with it . Daddy did not talk about what he did and his friends/ men really respected him . They told me all about him, and liked me instantly because I was always in his hip pocket and I said yes sir
If he asked me to do something . He was so good to me. 🥹

@Blanchy not for women who want to have fun in the moment. 😅
Blanchy · 31-35, F
@ViciDraco True if you just want to date but if you find a woman to settle down with, then it will benefit her future too 🫶🏻

@Blanchy that's the logical thinking, yes. You might also be more future minded like me
