I totally agree, which is why it seems weird that I struggle to control these feelings. I’ve never really had practice with this type of scenario (I’ve always been the one rejecting sex, which also supports a false societal narrative that “men always want sex” and women are the ones doing the rejecting)
Other disappointments never get me down like this one does. I can take most things in stride, maybe I get a little despondent or get frustrated to the point of taking more/different action. But in this scenario I just feel blindsided/confused by how strong my feelings are.
It’s called a conversation. Just respond. This is so weird a post.
Hmm I thought OP said she was cheating the whole time but I think you're right.
