Antjo39: Yes, you are right and certainly it can be deduced from my "you can only talk for yourself"
I am not worried about my own condition or level of phonyness. In fact, that is a subject that can only be interesting to me. My point goes beyond the personla level and gets concentrated at that entity that is "goodness of individuals" but in actual fact it is just personal marketing.
Maybe a good experiment would be good: Just create a thread where people are encouraged to talk about the horrible things they have inside or things that have contributed to their own failure with partners. A bad hard time would be given to many of the good ones here...why? because they are in actual fact good? maybe...however there are other options: or they think they are so good that they have not even noticed their bad side (horrible lack of criticism and self-delusion) or they simply know that to talk about something beyond the acceptable goodness would risk their being seen as attractive here or in other web-sites....
here's some tuth, my consistent mistakes with
ALLmy former patners has been my inability to see my failings.
its somtimes to much to surround a person with affection and concideration at the sacrifice or oneself, it leaves the other feeling clostofobic within the relationship and choking on well meaning. I find it hard to tear myself away from doing the good guy thing and concentrate on what is needed to be done to keep the balance IE: letting her do things for me, paying for her own travel,clothes,food, and letting her show me affection without over doing the appreciation. a simple rose can say I love you just as much as doing everything and anything.
if you squeeze a handfull of sand too hard the inevitable is you end up with an empty hand !
