OMG! You fuck like a man, you're commitment phobic! Maybe one day when you are tired of being alone you may want to look into why that is.
Yes I do or did "fuck like a man", I won't deny it. Nor do I see an issue with any woman living that way.
However, I am well aware of the reasons for my commitment issues (even my poor fiances and LTRs were aware of them), and no I am not alone. I am never quite alone in terms of family and friends, or even "single", meaning celibacy, dry spells or without male attention/affection, and I think that is one reason why it has taken so long to modify my behavior. But I have matured.
In the last year and a half, actually two years in November (yes there was a moment), I have become more open to not reserving so much of my individuality in a relationship. I'm still very much into maintaining separate interests, opinions, and personal time, but I realize there has to be a sort of melding as well - which had always been a concern.
Overall, I think the key to success in my long-term relationships, past and present, is to go in accepting the person for who they are fundamentally, loving each other for who we are/were, not could be, and possessing unified, for lack of better terms, goals and definitions for the partnership (for lack of a better term).
Every person has an issue, mine is commitment, my ex may be another thing, another ex had another - you work through it. - and thankfully, they all took the journey with me. :smile:
Women are just as guilty of this.
This is true.
Although, most of the women and men I know have or are currently growing out of it. I think it is more of a phase you go through with people you aren't really into. Sooner or later you meet the person you don't want to break up with, and later, you're on the receiving end where all your previous crap comes back and kicks you square in the ass.
I read an article once where someone wrote, "you earn empathy" and, in my experience, that's true.
