I'm scared of experiencing heartbreak again which is preventing me from dating. On one hand there are times when I feel like I'd want to pursue a relationship but then there are times when I feel like it's best not to engage in this and never fall in love again. When I imagine myself in a relationship at first it makes me feel happy but then the next second all of the thoughts of "what if it ends up in a break up again". I had a bad break up two years ago and I never want to feel like I felt again. I don't know what to do, how to resolve this conflict. Even right now there is a girl I'd be interested in but my mind is jumping to the end of our relationship which has not even begun.
>>34512275Why did the last relationship end
>>34512282There were several things but I guess one of the main things was communication. From myself it was mainly about the fact that I'm not good at showing affection. You can't really see whether I'm enjoying something, I like something or not. I very rarely say words of affection towards people. So if someone doesn't know me well they can get a feeling I don't care about them which is not true. I care deeply about people around me but I'm not good at showing it. She had a feeling I wasn't enjoying time with her as well on many occasions.And from her it was that she didn't talk about anything that bothered her. When she was breaking up with me it she listed dozens of things what I did on which day but she never mentioned them when they actually happened so we couldn't have even worked on it even if we had wanted to.
>>34512275No woman will ever love you anon, 90% of women out there do not love their man, they don't know how to love anyway; they only tolerate him as long as he provides.Learn to be stoic and get by without their fake and subpar love therefore about 90% of women should be invisible to you. Rise up above your biological programming.Take care of your health anons and find distractions to help pass the time, that's all most people do anyway, the difference is they do it with somebody so time spent together flows differently. It's merely an illusion though
>>34512275A Fable: How Shaking Hands Began (This IS relevant, I promise)In days of old, knights in armor who wanted to show friendship would take off one iron glove and extend their bare hand, knowing the other guy could lop it off with his sword, but hoping the gesture of vulerability would be accepted. Two knights wanting to show friendship would each take off a glove and clasp handsMORAL: Every human interaction, from meeting someone to falling in love, involves the risk of being hurt. But sometimes you just have to take off the glove.

>>34516032what woman has ever dated a man that is a: friendlessb: dirt pooranswer that and you answer if that comment is nonsense
>>34512319>When she was breaking up with me it she listed dozens of things what I did on which day but she never mentioned them when they actually happened so we couldn't have even worked on it even if we had wanted to.Typical woman. You need to know what they need from intuition. That actually shouldn't be hard to figure out because all women are similar.
>>34512469Cute but why would I do that with a womens
>>34512319Sounds like you need to work on outwardly expressing your love and care for others. If she didn't feel like you actually gave a shit about her, of course she's not going to open up.
