bethbarrett2009 Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 So I am in a LDR with a person I happen to care about and love very much. I accepted an internship that is in a different state. I will be here for 7 months, and so far I'm only 1 month in. We talk often, but not everyday. The problem isn't him, it's me. I don't know what's wrong with me, but suddenly it's like I feel like I need all this attention from males. I flirt with them just to have them flirt back. The kicker is that I had a few too many drinks and was hanging out with some other interns. One of the guys is pretty cute, and a nice guy, and we didn't do anything but at one point I had to lay down on a couch, where he proceeded to lay down with me and put his hand on my side. I really love affection like that, but I was really uncomfortable, because hello, he isn't my boyfriend. I even said that my boyfriend would hate that and he agreed but didn't move. This guy wasn't drinking, but I was. I don't want to use alcohol as an excuse though. We were only laying down for a minute before I had to move because I was so uncomfortable. I don't know why I didn't say anything though, and I even talked with my boyfriend today about how I feel like I need more attention than usual. I didn't mention the drunkcapades though. I feel bad but I didn't do it out of feeling like my boyfriend and I are drifting or anything, and honestly I don't know what's wrong with me. I guess I'm just wondering what my major malfunction is, and if anyone else has gone through this. I may have to quit my internship because I can't seem to live in a different state than him. Well, thanks for the help everyone.
justwhoiam Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 Hormones? Anyway, are you still in that internship? On a side note, all that drinking won't do any good to your image. And you don't want to be remembered as the easy girl who used to get drunk and flirt around with just anybody. It's a s--tty behavior. But well, if it's your nature, I'm not sure you should fight it. I would say "be yourself", but also "don't underestimate the consequences".
