Get honest with people about who you are, what you want and how you expect to be treated. Standards only scare off people not meant for you....

Right at this moment being alone is a lot more attractive then being lonely and miserable together.

Needed this today. Told her I still care but didn't get the same back. She has a way of evading a straight question by not answering in most unusual ways

A 496-page book is a bit much, though..?

Nmh.

Exactly I love this post you are perfectly correct. That is why I do not mind waiting for quality rather than hoping for quantity. One real woman is worth 10000 fake ones to me

I would usually acknowledge ones feelings before offering such viewpoints... They would seem rather rude.

The worst expectations I know are hidden expectations. For example, some people want you to split the bill without even looking at it because they have confused themselves into believing that it's a generous thing to do, but they've done it for so long that they're not even doing it out of generosity anymore, but instead habit. If you don't split the bill, then they will silently get irritated and think themselves above you, which should prove to themselves that they're not generous at all. Just make it clear to everyone what you want.

I dunno, id be careful about doing that .

Voicing standards only scares off people who are afraid to meet them .

Voicing standards to a sadist or a narcissist only lets them know exactly where to hurt you 🤷‍♀️
