Why are you dating someone you don't like? (This is in the Dating forum...)

Posted

I would move away from the kiddie table and go back to the adult table.

 

I'm not sure what you mean. The only person who comes close to provoking me is my boss, and she's just one of those people who has "those" kinds of days/weeks/months. Even she doesn't get to me.

 

Can you give us a teensy bit more backstory?

More backstory required.

 

For what it's worth, there is somebody I am irrevocably tied to for life, who has a serious personality disorder and has caused enough chaos and stress for me that just being in the same room as this person is difficult and raises my blood pressure. Breathing the same air is provoking. I have had dreams about doing violence to this person, and those dreams were pleasurable. Thing is, I'm going to be in the same room with this person, many times, and forever, and for good reasons. All I can do is handle it like an adult, logically and with a calm front, and try to be gracious about the issues forcing us together. Life is just like that sometimes. I have grown to regard this person as the embodiment of a life experience for me and I feel the whole thing has actually made me a better person: more patient, more adept at both compromise and peaceful confrontation.

 

However, if this was about someone I was dating--since a PP said this started out in the Dating forum--I would drop them like a hot potato and move on with my life. Why stay involved romantically with someone who you don't like and find difficult to be around?

Slit their throat when they're sleeping, obviously.

Be very mean to them.

 

Then they will work it out or avoid you.
