    @Kristine  thank you for writing.  Sending back lots of wishes .

    I really don’t know if I’m fortunate or it’s going to add on my miseries and make it more difficult for me . But in my heart it just feels right but my brain tells me to cut all ties . Im not able to do it and neither he is.

    Just fingers crossed, hoping for a good tomorrow . I’m trying to be positive and attract good things.

    And for you all I would say is, things will be better just give time some time I know it’s easier said then done . But we have  no choice it’s better to wait peacefully then in misery  .

    Lots of love and wishes

    Hi Anita

    It started without any apparent reason in 2011. One day I just had a panick attack sort of thing and I had no idea what was going on went to ER next day thinking I was having heartttack . I developed fear of fear and it continued of few days but my boyfriend was there with me to help and make me feel better.  So I was ok in few days but I didn’t get any answer what had exactly happened . Th ere was still a tiny fear of I might get those horrible feelings back.

    And 2012 was bad , lost a friend in accident and my anxiety got triggered.

    I went it that anxiety loop when I was constantly  trying to feel better but opposite was happening.  I was searching for a cure but was sinking deep and then I started taking things in my hand and did lots of research and read various books which made me aware of the disorder . Atleast I got an answer what it was  . Things started to get better but I had developed hypochondria and ocd which also got over in few months with acceptance  ans May be good karma.  A book that really help me understand anxiety is “At last a life “by Paul David.  You are doing a great job here by listening to all the people.  If you come across someone dealing with anxiety disorder ocd etc please recommend.  It will save their life lot of miseries.

    Now I get anxious but those feelings never transcend to physical agony . Like it’s a normal healthy fear of somewhat  logical reason . I say somewhat because all fears are illogical but when in anxiety it feels so real .

    I have sleepless night these days also but I joy not falling to sleep by reading or watching movie ealier not falling to sleep was also a fogger to my anxiety. You can say now it’s like I’m well versed with the phenomenon  so I’m not very scared of it .

    Hi anita

    Ofcourse its too early to get over . What I mean is I’m handling it fine without crippling myself to pain . I break down Many time  and get on with life as usual. It’s going to be a process and no matter how bad the time is its going to change . I’m just waiting for the better time meantime I don’t want to rush and take any decision in fear.But it’s not easy.  That’s why Im confused.  Thank you so much dear

    Hi Anita

    Thanks for your patient reply . I really wanted to talk to a neutral party who gives unbiased judgements.

    I don’t know what’s there in store for me. There is anxiety for unknown at same time deep instict things will turn out good followed by May what ifs. I think I i should give myself sometime and focus on my career which is also not going anywhere.But with all these things in mind it’s very difficult to stop the mind from straying. Do know how to go about it.

    Hi dear

    I’ve had generalized anxiety disorder before but I can say now it’s over . I much under control and just have usual anxieties like all peole have.  But one by product of this is I’ve developed a very strong defence mechanism that Im trying to guard myself all the time. I just can’t lie down and see future unfolding when I don’t have any idea what it would be.  But I want to tell  you it’s not very excruciating like  I can escape these feelings.

    The main anxiuouseness is the peer pressure like when people around me are getting married and all.

    My family fuel the fear by reminding me how in all these years I missed good offers from many men and Ive done it .  But I dont regret because i know I won’t be satisfied with any of them  .

    And my friends tell me how this new man is good for me blah blah and how my life will be comfortable.  Some even tell me I don’t have to love him because it doesn’t matter all you need is a good man and good security but I know it’s not like that…our internal satisfaction is very necessary for our well being.  I can’t live a lie . It’s a huge risk  .

    Thank you Anita for your reply again.

    Yes your are right, I don’t want to lose the possibility does that make me a awful human ?

    But he knows my past relationships and how close I was with them so obviously I’m capable of loving and being intimate  he knows that.  But I just told him I generally don’t like being clingy just so that he gives me enough  space.  He was  trying since there were no major problem with me and my boyfriend.

    And he as himself rejected so many women in past and some of them were beautiful so he knows when it doenst click it doesn’t .

    But now I feel like a terrible person . I wish I wasn’t anxious  about future and on top my family and close friends fueling my fear .

    Hi Anita

    He knows  for sure I don’t like him touching my hands etc.  But I didn’t tell him it’s because I’m not attracted to him ,ofcourse I don’t want him to lose his self confidence . He thinks I’m cold generally which is not the case I’m a sucker for  intimacy otherwise. But him I just can’t  . Usually my past records I get attracted to me as quick as possible but whenever I take more than few months  it’s just not for me. But some part of my brain tells me he is a catch otherwise expect for my feelings   (Sorry for being so calvulative ) but at the same time I wouldn’t use him for secure my life when I know wouldn’t be able to justice with him or the marriage.  I’m anxious about future that’s why cant let him go in my head and at same time my whole body mind heart doesn’t accept the idea of being with him .

    Hi

    Thank you again.  I’m very practical in life . The breakup caused more pain and suffering to my boyfriend than it caused to me . I was able to gather myself in few days and live my life fully . Ofcourse there are weak moments when I break down and it happens to him also . He still keep my  pictures and and keep looking it at he tells me .  I think I’m able to move on provided I feel right about a man  but with this new man I just don’t feel it in me and he is looking for a marriage  . What if i regret my impulsive decisions and spoil our lives.  It’s not like I would be breaking up if I dont feel right later because marriage makes things more complicated.

    Certainly there is a tiny hope in me regarding my future with my boyfriend but I’m rational enough to kill it provided I meet a man who I will look forward spending my life.

    Hi Anita

    I’ve been every straight to him since becoming. I told him I can’t connect and feel anything and physical touch makes me awkward.  I was wondering what is this  I really like talking to him,  sharing my thoughts , expressing anything to him.I laugh a lot when I’m around by. But I never get a feeling to get close or intimate.

    May be I’m like talking to him because  I had a emotional void and he is good ears . He makes me feel most beautiful and desired .

    But I just can’t get close to him . And I’m afraid if I take a decision based on my anxiety of future and be with him , I may regret later in life and its not even fair for him

    Hi sakib

    I had a compulsion to reply to your problem.

    Because I went through similar situation except I was at your girlfriend’s place.

    My boyfriend is very loving and a one woman  man . He doesn’t like social media and doesn’t have many female friends. The old classmates etc are there but they are not in any special touch . They only exchange wishes when they meet .

    And he hardly like post ,pics on social media and comments except mine. He has been always like this from start.

    But I’m on other hand is very out going  having lots of male friends as well as female . Constantly on social media.  Sometime chat with people when I know their intention that they like me and wants me as there mate . But of course I don’t reciprocate to their feelings and have not cheated him and I have no intention of doing so because I really love my boyfriend.

    I’m like this because it’s my nature . I have a world apart from him. It’s my indivaulity  .I’ve been always like this before I met him  and no matter how much try I can’t change drastically for him or anyone. But with him it’s different  I love him and I don’t love anyone else  .

    See if she is not happy with you and wants to leave you for any guy she will leave in any case.  You can’t stop her by telling her not to chat with guys . She will find a way to go out from your life. But if she wants to be with you trust me no matter how loose you let her she will  never go anywhere .

    I can give you few reasons why Im like the way I’m

    1.ive been very social, extrovert ,outgoing and got lots of attention since teenager .so May be I’m use to it . But this doesn’t make me a cheater or something  else

    2. I missed this connection of chatting and sending meme ,troll , tagging  on social media with my boyfriend . I told you already he doesnt use social media much.  And this is such a time where social media is very much part of your life . when i do  it with all my friend I feel like doing it with him also but he isn’t available so I just brush aside my feelings and do it with others .

    May be if she was present in on social media like I’m I would have been busy with him and would be left no time to chat with any other.

    3. She can be bit insecure And this is the case with me too . Though I know he loves me a lot but insecurity can stem from very subtle issue and can be very deep.  Like she might be insecure you guys won’t be together after  few years etc or like anything can happen to relationship.  So its her defence mechanisms to prove that she is not alone and she won’t be vulnerable.

     

    End I would like to tell you …if you really love her . Just let her know what bothers you and don’t give her ultimatum or think of breaking up etc because it will be like forcing her to stay with you . She she really  loves you she will never go anywhee and do anything Beyond her limits.

    I know this because I would never do

    @Craig you are right.  But it makes me so anxious thinking I’m might not ever get a man of my choice.


    @Anita
    yes I find him unattractive and thought of intimacy makes me cringe .I’m not even comfortable holding hands.But I like talking to him without any romantic tinge but I know it’s hard for him. I feel so guilty for using him emotionally when things were fough between me and my boyfriend.  But he tells he had fair idea things were not good between me and my boyfriend and he was secretly hoping to be with me so I don’t have to feel bad because he had an agenda too.

    I don’t know may be they both are not for me .

    Thank you so much for insight.

    But I would like tell that he really wants to be  be with me and im sure he is not thinking about anybody else. It’s just that he has a very different relationship with this parents that he just can explain his feelings .

    I’m not a kinda of a woman who will be in distress over a break up . Ofcourse its hurting me but most of time I’m ok and I can have fun and forget about him. And I’m trying very hard but It’s just not emotional but I’m physically not attracted to this new man. Otherwise I would have gone head i think so.

    Thank you
