Search Results: what makes you happy

I've had mixed reactions to breakups. One in which I recognized was basically over anyways, I felt nothing. I felt angry and sad when infidelity occurred, but my last one, I feel relieved.

It was hardly a relationship, just 18 days of lots of talking and all. But her need for attention became insatiable, I spent hours a day talking and it was never enough. She blew my phone the hell up when I went to make soup and tend to my dogs for 10 minutes.

I go to the bathroom, I come back to several missed calls and accusations that I cheated. No matter how much time i spent talking to her, the next day, she always wanted even more time commitment and on video calls, she got mad when I tried to multi task.

Her constant needs for reassurance, short fuse and a relationship in which she'd already brought up marriage several times, her need for attention and validation being exhausting, and it felt like being suffocated.

I told her over and over I needed space, she'd send 10 messages within a minute of me saying it. All this to say I am happy she is out of my life, she was very toxic and controlling, and I won't be with someone who doesn't even respect me enough to stop pestering me every 2 seconds.

She got me out of my comfort zone with cooking, that's the best thing I got from it. I ended it with her, brushing off her angry closing remarks. I'll find someone else, it's okay.

I hope the next woman I form a connection with will be more mature and reasonable. How do you usually feel after breakups and why?

To marry a girl you have to accept this:

Girls are far less agreeable than men. Like my girl won’t even move in with my parents (we have a mansion) just for 6-12 months until we can afford a really nice home.
It’s usually men negotiating around the wife like she’s some boss.

Girls use their emotions and tears to manipulate and control men.

No girl kept their legs closed. Do I need to say more. It’s sad.

You even see girls on hen dos disrespect their husband on their nights out. The respect for men has gone.

Women love the kids 100x more than any husband so you will be the first that gets thrown under the bus in hardship.

Marriage/divorce is still a legal contract like it was in 1960s - so in a breakup the woman gets the kids, money, house everything.
Girls are mean they’ll use guys and spit them out. They take everything in divorce.

It sucks for men because it’s either that or be single. So we are forced to make a bad option. Men are forced to be a simp or be single forever. That’s such an upsetting decision to have to make.

Men only get married to make the woman happy, we don’t care about it.
