		<description>this is me to a T on my period. i dont even always connect the dots and realize thats what it is but alas when that river of blood comes so does the abuse to a man who is so good to me. and why? because he&#039;s not throwing me a surprise party and jetting me off to unknown places every day. i can be so selfish even though i know i love him, i just want to make him suffer for my love. it&#039;s pretty horrible and i wish there was some way to make that beast go away forever.</description>

		<description>this is awesome.  this was totally me until like this year (i&#039;m 27 and finally figured out/addressed some things/confronted people in my life) and the &quot;emotional cutter&quot; analogy is totally spot on.</description>

		<description>&quot;I do all of this push and pull fighting bullshit so that the guy is forced to prove his love for me on a day to day basis. To reassure me over and over. This is so unfair to him. and eventually, he will run- to protect himself from me.&quot;

Its like i pick out girls that do this to me on a regular. I dont hate you for it, but how do you make it stop? because i would love to know</description>

		<description>First of all, the idea of not being into the relationship &quot;right now&quot; or being busy with work is a lousy one that I hear over and over.  I have an unfortunate telegraph for you - life will get busier and you will have less time in the future.  Life will not settle down and things will not become more organized.  This is the *least* busy and the *least* amount of responsibility you will have in your life - so putting stuff off is unlikely to be a very long term solution.

Creating situations where someone has to prove themselves is just symptomatic of being addicted to the passion of emotional pain.  Some people feel that an emotion can&#039;t be real and deep if it&#039;s not accompanied by emotional pain.  This is the emotional equivalent of a cutter - and just as effective at solving the problem.

If you can be this honest in a blog, you should be able to be honest in a relationship (and if shoulds were goods we&#039;d all be wealthy).  I&#039;m not sure if restraint is the answer (unless you have ones that come with gags).  More likely, you need to actually deal with the problems rather than sublimate them.

You&#039;ve obviously already come to the conclusion that you have some real issues with the emotions of relationships (and who doesn&#039;t - except me, I&#039;m fine - move along, nothing to see here).  Until you can correct the astigmatism of that lens, it&#039;s going to be hard to have any objective view on the actual relationship itself.

Possibly you can go down the list of things you do that you find unhealthy - and try to figure out the reasons you do them or say them.  Figure out what emotional chasm is being filled by your various scenarios, proofs, fights, validation, reassurance, etc.  People don&#039;t say things they don&#039;t mean because of hormones - but sometimes they get twisted and thresholds get lowered and inward anger gets directed outward.  The spotter becomes the target.

Either that, or possibly just eat more fruit.  That could also be it.  Probably papaya.  Try both and lemme know which one works.</description>
