Aren't I worth it?

[WarratahParticipant 895]

Right, I’m middle-aged, self-employed, own house, crazy-ex etc etc.
I meet this woman, middle-aged, attractive, self-employed, own house, single, no kids.
We’re both lonely so we hook up.
And things seem to be going very nicely. A sedate, middle-aged love affair. No hassles, all costs split down the middle, just two people seemingly happy to have found a companion.
Surprisingly, to me, there are no ‘games’. She’s a therapist and seems to have her s~~~ together. And after my ex, that’s just what I need.
I do realise that she wants to take the relationship a step farther, there is talk of me moving in with her etc. I play it cool, primarily because of the situation with my ex (I have another year to wait before I can start divorce proceedings).
Just recently we have a small disagreement. She overreacts and tells me that it’s all over between us.
I don’t freak-out. I take a zen attitude and say ‘fine, if you’re unhappy it’s best you go’.
A fortnight later she gets back to me, roaring mad that I haven’t tried to convince her to ‘take me back and try again’.
‘Am I not worth it?’ She asks.
And there we have it. This intelligent, middle-aged woman, who counsels other people on how to best run their lives just can’t resist a s~~~-test.
‘I’ll break-up with him, just to see what hoops he’ll jump through for me to take him back…’
You just gotta laugh.

Don’t think she was not loving the drama. All women need drama and attention. 100% of one and 100% of the other. If a woman does not have drama she makes it so she can get the attention.

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion, it is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning; it is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

I fail s~~~ tests with metals and flying colors!

A s~~~ test handled properly will always blowup in the face of it’s owner!

[WarratahParticipant 895]

Yeah, Old Sage and Chir have it spot-on.
The drama proving AWALT!
Thank God I’ve reached that happy stage where I can just laugh at everything although I must admit, that happy stage was reached with the help of this site!

(“I fail s~~~ tests with flying colours” hahahaha, loving that!)

Ask her “What do you think?”
Then tell her “No, you’re not. Bye.”

Warratah, it sounds like you are in such a good position that you do not need to take s~~~ from anyone. Continue building your wealth while you focus on yourself and your personal happiness.

[WarratahParticipant 895]

Actually Faust, I’m in quite a load of s~~~. I may even be spending tomorrow night in jail. But hey, what-the-f~~~, never been to jail before!

This is my ultimate red flag.

Sorry to hear of the s~~~. I’m sure you’ve lawyered up.

When you find yourself in the majority, it's time to reflect.

Bloody hell fella, fingers crossed you stay out of clink.
In the top ten of danger signs to watch out for when in relationships with women, “S~~~ testing” has to be in the top three. Has anyone on MGTOW ever compiled one?

[WarratahParticipant 895]

You fellas have inspired me, just made this.

Emotions can drive even the smartest people crazy. She can counsel other people, but may do the same mistakes (s~~~ testing, bad behavior, etc) if she feels her emotions.

Now what yo have to do is to throw your emotions in the dust bin, and do what is right for your goals. I’m talking from experience.

My response in a similar situation is that anyone that would end a relationship over something that trivial isn’t worth it. You scorched the earth over something small so you clearly didn’t value our relationship.

After being here, I would add “And I only give one chance, per person, per lifetime.”

Amazing that even being at an able when most decent men don’t want her she can’t resist playing games.

Cut bait now and forever. That’s possibly a classic borderline tactic called push/pull. PD people can gravitate into the psych fields. She could also just have a normal hamster issue like s~~~ testing with a slice of major c~~~.

That’s just not normal, period.

[bigboy83Participant 11312]

Last time a c~~~ said to me, i said “the other guy can have you.” Boy, was she p~~~, she ended up with the silver prize, because she wanted me instead. The guy, goes around and tells her how beautiful she is, constantly. Lol

Shit Tested, Cunt Approved.

You can probably expect to hear from her again. She’s a therapist, so crazy is pretty much a given.

: “Am I not worth it?”
: “If you’re the sort of woman who is going to make me go through all sorts of drama and bulls~~~ just to be with her, then no, you’re not worth it. If I wanted that crap I’d still be with my ex. The only women worth fighting for are the women who don’t want men fighting for them.”

That probably won’t shut her up, but at least it will let her know how badly she just f~~~ed up.

The moment she tries to make you take a s~~~ test, she just failed yours.

[FermatParticipant 3478]

This is my number one problem with modern women. They start s~~~ just see how badly you want to see them Happy. There is a special layer in Hell for people who think like this. Just because it’s normal doesn’t make it right.

I have discovered a truly remarkable list of reasons why women are not necessary for a happy life, but alas this margin is too small to contain it.

Splitting hairs with you here, but I would say it’s typical, not normal. Normal almost sounds like there’s a rational reason for it.
