Type of irritation |
Every single one of my relationships have run into one of the aforementioned glitches/bumps. I’m starting to wonder if those things will ever cease to affect my relationships. Maybe I’m never very satisfied in relationships because I try to force myself into traditional relationships/monogamy. Maybe I’m just not cut out for those things. Maybe I should stop fighting it.

As some others have already pointed out, Lysistrata is simply Slut Shaming by a different name.
It still involves getting a large percentage of girls to not be slutty.

“Minority students at particular institutions can be particularly affected by the downside of hooking up. It is not a homogeneous phenomenon,”
Thats where the future worthy wives come from

Sassy, this seems to be more about commitment avoidance and lack of trust of men than about something inherently missing from your personality. To me, these issues can definitely be fixed once worked on. You’re still young, and even as a 28 year old I’ve learned so much about myself since I was your age, about my likes and dislikes, personality gliches etc.,
For example when men ask if you want kids, I hope you will reconsider the answer. In 5 years, you won’t know how you feel (many of the women now 30 and single had no idea they wanted kids at 23).
Sometimes, you have to date against type in order to discover what type of relationship you’d be good at. i.e, I thought I’d always love the intellectual high-end beta/successful loner type, and got exactly what I wanted more than once. After dating this type for a while, I discovered that this is NOT what I want. Intellectual men often come with some “moody” personality baggage, pretentiousness, and arrogance, for example (I even doubt that it’s healthy for me to date another loner). Anyway as you date more, you may even discover that your “type” is responsible for the glitches and bumps you’re experiencing, and it might be time to “tweek” your preferences just a bit.
