Do I attract the crazy ones?

Yep, you've guessed it... a moan about women, and how I seem to attract the crazy ones.

The last 3 girls (over the course of 9 years!) that I've been with have all somehow had something screwed up in their head. The one I'm with now (well won't be in a few hours), she's got depression and is on medication for it I knew this when I kinda first got with her. But she's been ultra moody, depressed and snappy at me for the last month or so. I've tried many ways to cheer her up, but she doesn't seem to want to do much - partly because she's really broke and doesn't want to take my money (which she still seems to accept anyway). It's just really hard work being around someone who's miserable all the time, and it rubs off on me!

Another girl I was seeing on and off for about 8 months before the above, she had massively bad PMT. She would skitz out over anything, then start crying and going mental at me. She once kept telling me to **** off when we were out, I think she got jealous about something (can't remember really as it happened on so many occasions), but she kept telling me to leave her alone. I refused and offered to walk her to the taxi rank and send her back to mine or hers in a taxi, but she persisted. I then did bugger off, 5 minutes later she was on the phone asking why I left her?!? It felt like I was walking on ice, anything would set her off, I called her a tease once.... oooh big mistake! I don't see/speak to this one any longer.

My main X, who I was with for 7 years also had a few screws loose (that slowly arose over the years). She'd have crazy spouts while out drunk, screwed up way of dealing with things (like her family), night terrors which I was attacked in my sleep quite a few times and a strange ability of her being able to destroy what made her happy in life. Since we've split (she ended up with a guy she cheated on me with once), she's tried to kill herself at least once, told me how much she misses me, cheated on the dude she's with. The difference with this girl though, is that I could sort her out and cheer her up... She's still in my friendship circle, so it's hard to forget about this one, we still click and I do honestly miss that click you get with someone.

Now that's about my experience with women over the last 9 years, now I just have a question. Are all women this mental?

I don't usually post these kind of threads, but it's really starting to bug me!

Almost. I would say 97% - or there abouts anyway. I still can't understand them - and fail to understand their bitching, bickering and general female hatefullness (usually aimed at their fellow females)


That's the fun though - you go with all the mad ones and have lots of strange, dangerous fun - then realise you want to grow up and settle down with a normal lady who will be a good mother and wife (and if you are extremely lucky - you might actually find one with a sense of humour - which is even harder to find in women). It's just a hell of a job finding that woman.

What I found strange with women is - You have no idea if they are a bunny boiler when you first start going out with them. It can happen a week into the relationship, a month or even a year. Suddenly they morph into some deranged, controlling, suicidal maniac that can twist and manipulate almost anyone around them. There sure are a larger proportion of manic women around these days (and strangely enough, they seem to get away with everything they do)

That report is really shocking to be honest. Strange that after years of fighting for their rights, females are now more depressed, anxious and suicidal. Whereas, as a male, our metal health state has stayed roughly the same over the years - even though we have the same amount of things to deal with in life.

And thats only the ones that admitted it - imagine what the real figure is when you factor in the ones who think there is a stigma attached to metal health problems.

Humm!

Yes, we're all mental.

However the good ones feel the Crazy coming, apologise for it, and ideally keep themselves to themselves until they've got over it.

The occasional temptation to go nuts at something minor is huge! Usually because that minor thing triggers some insecurity we already have.

It's quite hard, because all of you wants to just explode in anger and upset - but you have to remove yourself from it and go "Waaaiiit, you sure this is rational? Does he deserve it?" Try and imagine you're massively angry at someone, but you have to just swallow it all back. Later of course we realise it was irrational and silly, but the emotion is still there and biting it back can be a real effort!

Hard work sometimes. But he more than deserves not to be subjected to the Full Crazy.

from the article said:
A spokeswoman for the mental health charity Mind said: "One of the reasons that might explain the increase of common mental health problems in middle-aged women (45-64 years) could be the heavy burden they face as primary carers. Having children later in life means today's women in their 40s and 50s face numerous responsibilities such as caring for elderly relatives, looking after young children or teenagers, and managing a full-time career. Wearing all these different hats can be very stressful and leaves little time for women to concentrate on their own mental wellbeing."

That was my mum.

When I was about 12, while we were walking the dog, she turned to me and said that if it wasn't for me, she'd have killed herself by now. She was unhappy, working long hours a fair way from home, being my mum, my stepdad was also pretty depressed at the time - and while I think in her way she was trying to tell me that she'd always be there for me - I suddenly felt pressure. Like I was keeping her alive and unhappy, you know?

Luckily she's well out of the other side of it now, she and my stepdad are finally definitely happy :)

That is heavy, my mother had a bit of a heart to heart with my me over some stuff regarding her life and that was hard.
