Most people I end up in a relationship with or just the beginning stages of courtship, end up imposing their expectations on to me and judging me . I need to be accepted for who I am and I guard my individuality and freedom with a flame thrower. I make it VERY clear by explicitly saying what I like and do not like.

Example, I told my SO I don’t like doing much on the weekends because during the week I am constantly doing things . So what did he do this damn morning - instead of letting me sleep in, he woke me up at 7:30am to go do shit. And when I told him no, he judged me for wanting to sleep and not go for a walk at the butt fuck of dawn.

He continued to be hyper focused and critical of everything I was doing. Like my eating pretzel sticks for breakfast- like yes that’s what I want does it matter?

That rubbed me the wrong way and that made me want to push him away….

like you don’t need to be here with me if there’s something else you’d rather be doing….

Leave me alone Leave me alone Leave me alone
