Title:
How do NTers experience love?


Body of topic:
I don't mean to offend anyone. I am just asking and honest question trying to understand the NTers in my life and how they experience love.

You see, the NTers who say they love me don't seem to show it very well.

They are constantly nit picking what I do, pointing out my mistakes, badgering me to remember things that aren't important...

It seems like they are constantly...

(for a friend)


Accept the fact that he is not you

Accept the fact that he is not “normal”

Accept the fact that he will never meet your expectations

Accept the fact that your expectations are unrealistic

Accept the fact that you should have gotten to know him better before you committed your life to him

Accept the fact that the problem is half you and not all him

Accept...

ugh I am going to stop reading the non-add partner section as well as the parenting!

Every time I read that section, I get this punk song stuck in my head.
It goes:
"You're my victim, oh yeah,
my victim, oh yeah,
I'm good to ya,
but you're my victim oh yeah,
cause you like being one, oh yeah
My victim, oh yeah,
no matter what I do,
its wrong, it hurts you
My victim, oh yeah!"
Or something like that....

I got an interesting email and then had an interesting IM conversation. Well, I am going to call them interesting rather than some of the other words going through my mind.
Background: There’s this fellow (lets call him Brad) who I have been friends with for a few years now. We have dated off and on a few times, though usually we find ourselves in different towns. We get along well enough but there’s certainly no passion and while we have lots on common, I just could never really see us...
