Breaking the Curse of Mistreatment
That was a weird but interesting "dating" experience, if it could even be called that. It's been about a week since I got away from it and here are my thoughts. Can you relate?
It's nice to be back in Eugene. Shop my batik artwork and handmade apparel here www.batikwalla.com/

    Sixteen moves over my life, and I got seeing them all as positive changes. Refocuses a person. On dating past the age of 50....you are in a 'pond' with limited fish, so baiting the hook and spending time fishing....requires a lot more patience than when one was 25.

    So many of us have struggled with the illusion and what we wish a situation would be like and the reality of what is. We ALL deserve to have healthy happy relationships. But it does all start with self love. We continue to repeat some things until we learn the lesson. Listen to your intuition and cut the cord so you can be available for something better. Much love to you in your ongoing journey.

    I think those scenarios can continue to show up until you can recognize it from a mile away. You did recognize it and backed out you put on the brakes. Relearning is a process I mean I have 50 years relearning. Still have some cptsd come up the last of all that was in 2016. No more fight or flight but your mind still sees things and wants to jump to fear. I do the nail thing peeling the skin away even. It's all ok we have to be patient with ourselves to heal.

    • @batikwalla
      @batikwalla 5 днів тому

      Idk if I agree that it's hard to break free. I'm doing it right now, but it did finally hit a threshold. Once you see it, it's impossible to go back without lying to oneself and everyone else. We just gotta be fundamental in our thinking. I only regret that it got this far, that my threshold wasn't sooner. No intimacy or major life sharing connections, thank God, but it was an exhausting roller coaster. I am a little scared to some extent. He fully had me emotionally manipulated. It's not a lightweight thing. Any expression of physical intimidation from a man is the sign of potential harm, which could lead to death, and that is effing scary. It's not dismissable. So I wish I had called it even sooner, but LIVE and LEARN.

    • @hopeinsights
      @hopeinsights 5 днів тому

      I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. So many things you said made sense to me even from childhood. I mean I was making excuses for a situation that wasn't ok in the past. It's a bummer it worked out this way. We are attracted to that same person until finally we break free of our own programming. A whole life experience shows up in these moments. Understanding this is healing and finally seeing this and making the changes. Better sooner than later. Thank you for sharing it brings to light some things I've not understood before as well.

    You bring up a interesting topic....small-town America where people are bored and begging for strangers to appear and relate some new tale/life-story. I remember it from 1970s...rural south, where new people arrived. Yeah, there is the gossip angle and people want the 'juicy-stuff'. I'd share a shot-glass of life and leave the rest to their imagination. The observation I will offer....as weird or off-the-path that you have ventured into.....in a year, you might find three or four 'neighbors' with similar stories. Everyone has something they hold as 'guarded'.

  • @rhammond2152
    @rhammond2152 11 днів тому

    Three observations: (1) Ok, I get the 'signal' that you want some romance script, but you seem to desire something 'epic' and you seem to be barely at first-base on this situation. Do things have to speed up to turbo so quick? (2) Mid-50s? Really....yeah I was identifying you at 46/47. Guess I got that wrong. (3) On the name business...I can understand if you had some French-sounding 4-sylabelle name....I'd probably on the first date give you a nickname and hope you didn't dump me at the restaurant later. (pardon my sarcasm) I'm not pulling for or against the guy, but he'd have to up his strategy of date-poker if he wanted match wits with you. (my humble thought)

    Interesting self-perception. Four points: 1. My brother used to say (even into his 40s) that he had 44 different 'filters' and getting to the perfect woman was near impossible. I wrote a blog once....identifying his 44 filters which was meant to fake and humorous, to which later he admitted.....half of them were correct. People want the perfect partner and work hard to increase the number of filter...rather than decrease them. 2. Laying out stuff on social media, and thinking someone you 'desire' doesn't read them? Maybe in the 1990s, that worked....today? I give it 50-50 odds that he looks at social media. 3. On my personal anxiety 'index' (1-10)....I'd be giving you a '9'. I'd be at the gym, a bowling alley, or some literature group to de-stress myself. 4. Finally, on God assigning you 'single-status'....BS. I do believe in luck (good and bad). Video-blogging is an art of story-telling and you are doing a pretty good job.

    That's not an injured crow, it's a fledgling!!! It's parents are there to protect it until it can fly off on its own. The only thing you're doing is going to injure and/or kill not only the fledgling, but adult crows and as a former wildlife sanctuary care person I can tell you that crows have very strong and protective bonds with their family and that includes they have large, extended families. They also have lifespans to 60 years, with the exception if they're murdered.

    Don't engage, it's not worth your sanity or your peace when somebody treats you in that way and they come back without a proper explanation or apology. They are most often trying to tie you to a cycle of devaluation and then the tiniest of acknowledgment feels like a great gesture. It's not fair to you and it's better to know where your boundaries lay and stick to them. Look out for yourself. When someone confuses you they either don't truly care and/or aren't capable of doing so at that time (may never be). Better to focus on yourself (your art) and be more aware when you meet someone new if they start doing the same behaviors cut them off early and be patient until you meet a genuine human.

    You articulated your feelings so well it is very impressive. The shorts are all great lengths, they fit the beach casual feel too with softness in the raw cut edge.. The sharing that you have done really has many aspects of how you have gone through situations which lead you to feel certain ways when new things come up in your life. You are able to tell us the layers which I personally can relate to so clearly. I know I have confidence in myself like you but also question my decisions sometimes too. It's pretty healthy but doesn't always feel like it is at the time. I have been single many years and love it but also wish I could share my life with a man but it is so scary and never right enough. I back off which is easier and safer. Men just really just think so differently than women. I love the freedom of being my own person but with friends to help get you through.

Can he respect you for you and can you respect him for who he is. We can not go into a relationship expecting we can change a person to that we want them to be. 2 divorces later I learned this.
