I just got out of a bad relationship I am 23 and the girl is 21
the girl I was involved with fits with ambivalent and somewhat avoidant love type.
I was friends with her for about 2 years before I fell in love with her.
Upon falling in love with her I noticed that she shared the same feelings as me.
After confronting her with my feelings I was rebuffed. OK I handled that.
But afterwards she gently hinted that don't trust anything she said before.
And I still could tell by her behavior that she had feelings for me. For example you can tell by the look in the eyes. And I don't mean a spark or something faint. I mean full on. She also got jelous easily.
Now started to treat her nicer than before I noticed she grew more ambivalent. Like she would be annoyed at me and generaly put me down. And only times did I get any sort of affection is either rearly or when I was in danger of leaving or dropping the relationship, or I payed less attention to her.
After about a month of that I got tired and confronted her about everything. She denied ever having feelings for me and could not explain my proof away.
She also said she had another boyfriend now.
So and so she said we shouldn't speak anymore.
Anyway after telling my sad story to my friend at work he told me about how he handled relationship back when he was in the 16-23 age phase.
He noticed that when he started a relationship with a girl at first it's fine but gradualy like within a months time the girls lost interest and started to see him less and less
and he would come off needy when trying to handout with them.
He also had lots of girls who were just his friends. and all those girls complained about their boyfriends and how their boyfriends wouldn't call them or generaly act ambivalent to them. basicaly they were jerks.
now he noticed that all the boyfriends that stayed were jerks while the nice guys wouldn't last a month.
So next time he was with a girl he acted bad to her one day and nice on another.
this way she wasn't too sure if he wanted to be with her.
This actualy worked. being bad to girls actualy worked. they might get fed up and leave but in the end they came back. The trick here is that the girl wanted him more when she wasn't sure if he was hers or not.
Upon hearing this I realized that all my romantic relationship are basicaly this.
At first they like you but over a short period of time they lose interest. and after they lose you they want you again.
My sister is like that . She told me that you want a guy and when you have him and know he won't leave you get bored with him and throw him out. But once he isn't there you want him again.
Also most girls stop doing this after 24 or 25. They start to be able to have normal romantic relationship. without all this manipulation drama.
So my question is there any educated opinions on this.
