There is no one in my country with whom I can get along well except my boyfriend. Most people's outlook on life is not like mine. Yesterday we went out with my sister's friends. While my sister was talking with her friends, I realized that no matter how much time passed, I was never like the people around me. I have known my sister's friends for 5,6 years, but I have never felt close to them. And I still don't feel close. And all my life, I didn't feel close to the people around me. I also met my sister's boyfriend yesterday. I can't say that I like the relationship between my sister and her boyfriend. The relationship of her boyfriend with my sister is none of my business, but my sister and her boyfriend are more was like friends than lovers. Yesterday my sister and her lover never had physical contact with each other. Since my lover is out of town, I can't touch my lover, but if my lover were with me, I wouldn't spend a second without hugging my lover, holding my lover's hands and kissing my lover's cheeks. And also my sister calls her boyfriend by her boyfriend's name. I always address my lover with words such as "my dear love, my only lamb, my everything, my breath". My boyfriend also addresses me with words like "my panda, my bead, my lamb, the meaning of my life". My boyfriend's name is Mustafa and even when I call her by her name, I say "my Mustafa". When my boyfriend calls me by my name, she calls me "my Sıla". Even when we call each other by our names, we use words to indicate that we belong to each other. But my sister was calling her boyfriend by name only, without saying any word of ownership. This is their way of communicating all the time. Even my sister's view of love is not like mine. I think my sister thinks love is like any friendship. And most people in Turkey treat their loved ones like an ordinary person. Maybe if we had a dna test with my boyfriend and me, we would learn that we aren't Turkish. I don't even look like my family in character.
how long had this boyfriend?
Sounds like you and sister are different in personality, and that is normal. Sounds like you are functioning on "right brain" emotion right now, and maybe that's who you are. You are in love, and it's a strong emotion.
Your sister is different.
There's nothing wrong with how you are or they are, you have different minds. Life does become logical at times, so value the abilities of people whom are different than you, but respect and value yourself as well.

cuuute... i find your post so cute especially the petnamw part you and your boyfriend call each other
I don't know about Tirkey. well there's an actress in my country who got divorced to a aTurkish business man due to cultural differences
Cultural differences is such a big thing. before when i hear about cultural differences from celebs in my country who are married or in a relationship with foreign men ( i'm
Filipino by the way) i didn't believe it. i thought it was just a lame excuse to the real reason. lo and behold this is indeed a super huge factor
maybe you are not that different. maybe people just misconstrued you. people online find me different but i don't think i am
but if you are different then embrace it. as long as you're not hurtinh anyone love the uniqueness God created you to be 😊
That’s not your problem
People show love differently also you don’t know the personal conversation between the couple your sister and her boyfriend. They don’t have to show affection in public it is not mandatory to do that so they appear “real”.
But I understand your worry why you might think that since you don’t mind sharing how you feel easily to others.. some people don’t and that doesn’t make you different at all. It simply means we have to respect others wants and wished we can’t make them let’s say forcefully hold hands.. they might want to do that in private etc. We have to accept others as they appear otherwise the problem is you questioning it not them.
I’m not like the people of this planet, I have Autism and a very high IQ I also don’t see the world like other people and that’s ok, you don’t have to fit in or be like them.
Someone once said to me “I laugh at you because you’re different “ yes he was bullying me but I said “well I laugh at you because you’re all the same” he then blocked me.
Be proud that you are different.

You honestly sound autistic. The "possessive" aspects and obsession on calling your partner by nicknames are all signs of autism. Autistics like routine and struggle when it is broken. Similarly referring to yourself as "different" is an autistic trait.
And if you aren't you still have issues that need psychiatric evaluation. You refer to ownership your boyfriend isn't a piece of property or a dog that you own. I
Yes. That's why I have a small group of friends that I've known for 25-30+ years. Hard for me to connect with many people. That's why I'm single for most of my life now. It's either everyone is a like, I we don't have the same views. I am still different from all my friends. And wish I had more, friends with interests and values like me. The rest of what you mentioned about your sister , is beyond me. I get along with my brother. Ve hung around with his friends. There cool and all
It is hard to say but your priority in life is to interface with others whether it is comfortable or not. Things will relax and you will feel more at home with others the more you interact with the public. Good luck with it all.
You sound autistic to me.
The classic ‘ I am not like everyone else’ line is a big clue. The autistic brain is wired differently to allistic brains.My wife and I have never called each other my our first names. 99.99 percent of the time it is honey. The other 0.01 percent of the time it’s yes dear.
Maybe you need to move someplace where you feel more comfortable and where you can express your affection for your boyfriend more freely
Being different is ok. But there, we can maybe call that a kind of social phobia. And a lack of fondness for having to call your boyfriend by nicknames everytime and by hugging him all the time. You should see a psychiatrist.
It might be that you don't, truly, know yourself. I think if you got to know people you would find you are more similar than you think.
I feel you. Different people have different styles. Hopefully they will become more close as their relationship grows.
First look at what others like, their hobbies or you just don’t make yourself approachable? Look around, the problem might be you…
So you have a boyfriend or you're married?
Or both?Sound like you have issues
Seek therapy.
Maybe you are mildly autistic?
