What's your pain tolerance like? Is it high or low? Do you bitch and moan about everything, or just about one thing, or do you suck it up? In my experience, women like men who can withstand a lot of pain without bitching.
>>84778314Bitch and moan unfortunately
>>84778324Have you tried methods to increase your pain tolerance like punching trees?
>>84778314>pain toleranceI grew up in a way that whatever happens to me, I didn't wanna be a botherWould rather die than cry for help
>>84778358Maturity here means knowing that if you really don't want to be a bother, you'll get help if you do need it.
>>84778314I act like an autist about it, because I have diagnosed autism. I'm good at handling the pain and keeping on keeping on, but I make lots of vocalizations and body movements and say shit and end up humiliating myself, hence why I isolate myself when I'm in pain. It brings out a part of me that's indecent. As for my pain tolerance, it depends what I've been doing recently. If I'm going through grief or am enraged about myself or sad, my pain tolerance becomes a pain craving. If I've been exercising or outside exposed to the elements for long enough or been doing lots of cold showers for long enough, I also then have a very good pain tolerance, because my strenghtened vagal tone allows me to relax and prepares me to handle all sorts of sensations without breaking down into my base autistic building blocks. I'm currently working on gettung that back. I flew too close to the sun and lost it when I thought I had changed rather than just my body.
>>84778397They called me "mature" when I was a kid, now that I'm older and I try to act my age they get angry at meI just have to face the facts that people don't really care about me, they just don't want me to bother them
My gf loves squeezing blackheads out of my back, which feels like a mandatory torture session for me. She always tells me how much of a little bitch I am when I inevitably start screaming and moving away.
>>84778448Maybe take an ibuprofen before you do that o_O
>>84778483I don't think that would do anything. Numbing cream might be a better idea. Either way, I don't get a warning, it just happens and I feel like I have to tolerate it until I can't anymore.
>>84778314im not in the best of healthy so stubbing my toe will have me reeling longer than necessary and my cuts take a while to heal. i bruise easily to too.
>>84778314Depends.If its something like stubbing my toe i bitch and moanWhen my mother smashed glass on my head and gave me cut i didnt flinch whatsoever.
>>84778314Weird because autism.I basically don't notice it until it reaches a certain threshold, but then it becomes intolerable.I get cuts and bruises all the time and don't really know where they came from because I just don't notice pain in the moment.When I used to get in fights as a teen I'd just kinda ignore punches. They did damage ofc, my face was all fucked up the next day (that never really hurt either, even though everyone would act like it should), but in the moment I barely felt them, I'd just step into the hits and start swinging.I had a gall bladder thing a while back that really highlighted the whole thing. I got this weird tension in my gut. Not pain, or even discomfort, just a sensation. And randomly, I'd suddenly double over in pain and be unable to do anything but clutch my chest. It'd last a half hour or so, and then I'd just be fine again, no pain. When I got it out, there was a guy in the next bed screaming in agony the whole time, while I sat quietly turning down pain meds because I hadn't had another of those half-hour episodes. I overheard eventually that he was in for the same surgery I was - his had been scheduled for two days time, but he was in too much pain to wait, so he'd come into the ER. His got done before mine.When they took it out of me, they commented that they'd done another gall bladder that week, and that mine was in far worse condition than that one and should have been done first, but they didn't realize because I said I wasn't in pain.Normally the thing that gets me isn't even the pain. It's the realization I've been damaged. Once, I basically sliced my finger in half with a hobby knife. I didn't realize until I smeared blood all over the model I was working on. I looked down and saw the tip split open and blood everywhere, and that's when I freaked out. Same for punching through a glass door.It's like, if I actually notice the pain, I have zero ability to handle it. But a lot of the time I don't notice it.
