| Hey!
I've just experienced a pretty bad case of oneitis, which I have had several of in my life, and it has made me reflect on my romantic/sexual history. From I was 15 to I was 19 I was in love with the same girl, but I friendzoned my self heavily, even though she was interested, because I had such low self-esteem. I remember being very frustrated and crying in front if my family, but instead of my father validating my emotions, he yelled at me several times because he meant I handled the situation poorly.
Coming from a family background where my emotions have not been validated so well, I think I have developed a poor ability to contain my emotions, and I think that is why falling in love is so extremely painful for me.
Even though I'm 30 years old now, a lot of women still tell me I have a very boyish type of energy.
So I think when you are not very good at containing your emotions, you instead want to spit them out, and that makes being a smooth and chill seducer difficult, so I'm seeking to rush things, having closures, declarations of my love, etc, all that, way too early, in stead of just going with the flow of things.
Does these theories make sense? Are any of you familiar with any psycho-therapeutic articles on this theme?
