My self-worth is deeply tied to whether or not I’m attractive, as judged by whether or not attractive women find me attractive. I see my self-worth fluctuating depending on who I match with in dating apps, and whether or not they hold a good conversation with me. Also explains my rejection sensitivity and fear of approaching/being rejected.
On the positive side, I’m surprised by how attractive some of my matches are. I didn’t think I’d be in their league.
I don’t know why I said that I’m shy. It must have been a specific recent experience that I don’t remember anymore. My current most recent experience was intimidating a girl who was staring at me because I stared like it was a challenge haha, but that’s also a one off like the shy experience.
Yes, 4 or 5 times, and I’ve run stage 7 for six months twice.
What you’re describing about permission is definitely true for me, but it’s was easy-mode because she guided us to sex, and I was just along for the ride. Turns out she has herpes though, so now I’m paranoid about having caught it for a few weeks, and wondering why Shannon removed the safeties
