Is it normal that i feed my ego with women?

When it comes to relationships with women, I tend to use them to feed my ego. Most of my girl friends end up with feelings and I more or less exploit it. I don't outwardedly ruin the friendship, they just tend to drift away because I don't give them what they want. There's something about being in control that is intoxicating. On the flipside, I don't suffer from a lack of confidence or self-esteem at all. I don't see myself as a "love" person though; this behavior is my own way of sating desire for love, so to say.

Am I screwed up?

    Ehhhh. Control is no replacement for love, and I find it hard to believe you don't suffer from a lack of self-esteem if you put such a great emphasis on controlling other people. Wanting to control other people is not a normal, healthy urge.

  • Holy shit did my ex boyfriend just make a freaking IIN post?

    Whoever you are, I went through I relationship almost exactly like you described, and you sir are an asshole regarding your relationships.

    Some of us don't drift away. Some of us actually put effort into a one-sided relationship to make guys like you actually feel a "spark", but then feel like shit when we actually wake up and realize we have been exploited...and then afterwards realize we are a million times fucking better than guys like you.

    ..l. .l..

    ^^ those are my hands flipping you off btw, on behalf of all the women you use.

    • Unfortunately it takes going through those types of relationships so that you learn how to recognize and then avoid them in the future.

      I read your profile, I enjoy James Rollins also, just for casual reading, good call. Your attitude on make up is refreshing also, less is most definitely more.

    This sounds like narcissistic behavior. Perhaps you are suffering from this disorder.

  • ...I'm pretty much the same way, kind of, except I extend it to everyone, not just women.

    I like being admired.
