all girls are crazy lol

one thing about women is that they can easily remember things that happen in past like it was yesterday...they live that moment again and takes some time for them to settle down again with their emotions

That's not true 100% of the time. Some of them are so crazy that you'd be stupid to stay. Such as my last gf.

the crazy and hot ones are so easy to tell but it's like heroin i swear to god
you know you shouldn't, you know you won't, but you end up doing it anyway and anything else just doesn't feel right

I've been dealing with this, too. Its definitely hard to understand where they're coming from sometimes.

How long ago again was it when this happened to her? If it's fairly recent (last couple years)....it will still affect her. But it will get better over time.

If you think she's worth it, you just live in the moment and try to avoid situations that may prompt her to think along those lines.

She's been through a traumatic experience. But if she doesn't get better with those types of episodes, you shouldn't have to deal with it.

I would give it a little more time and see how soon she reacts that way again...that is if she does. You can gauge then if it's something she will get past....or if she's going to be a drama queen about it everytime.

1am update after my date:
not my worst date, but definitely up there. it's both a blessing and a curse that i'm good at acting interesting, but i just didn't feel that connection from either side.

definitely a chill girl, but we're polar opposites. she's a netflix and blankets kinda girl and i'm a "i gotta be active 24/7 otherwise i'll hate myself" kinda person... too chill, if anything.

Lol....but in 15+ years...those roles could reverse.

Probably not though. My wife has always been a "stay-in" type with a small circle of friends. Me....well you know how I am. 3 maybe 4 hours of sleep at night and then I'm climbing the walls to try and find something to do.

But it works out in the long run. We both compromise....plus I think every couple needs time away from each other for themselves. I get mine usually while she is sleeping. On the weekends...I'm usually up no later than 3:00am and she sleeps in until 10:00am or so. So I have plenty of time to do my own thing.

Need clarification on if you're looking for a relationship or just trying to get laid lol. Seems like you go on a solid bit of dates, but it never really works out. And from what you say this is mostly because of your interests. So with said, what's the point in all these dates. What are you looking for hombre? I know you're younger like me, hence the question.

That's awesome man! Glad to hear she came around. To answer your question in short.....yes; just like us, even the best of them have their off days. The thing to always keep in the back of your mind is that men are ruled by facts; women are ruled by emotion.

This! The girlfriend and I are polar opposites on certain things, but then when we are together, it seems the roles reverse. It's the craziest thing. If I'm alone, I'm 100 mph; being productive, efficient and making shit happen. When she is alone or with her kids, she is running 100 mph being mom or prepping to come see me. When we are together, we are either working together to get ready for the gym, go out to eat, go to a movie, etc. then it's downtime. The odd thing about our downtime is that it consists of me waiting on her hand and foot, while she relaxes or vice-versa. The point of all this is that being polar opposites works sometimes. It's good to have that ying to the yang.

I don't know. If I was a woman, I'd date me. I'd date me hard. Unfortunately, most women don't know what I know about me.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, their lack of knowing what I know about me, probably keeps me out of a lot of trouble and my sanity intact.

It threw me off because she's usually pretty relaxed about things.

honestly, I don't know. Maybe that's why "it never really works out" but honest to god i never thought of that, ive been on the "i'll go on dates to see what's what but if something good comes along the way i'll take it" train

I'll have to reflect and get back to you on this man

I also have been considering the potential aspect of me looking for someone when I myself not really am in that position. Think of like a 300lb obese guy chasing after gym bunnies. That does mean I have to dig deep and I don't really even know where to start with that lol

I really don't know, you asked a pretty good question
