I’m still 28 years old, moving ahead in my career, and have so much ahead of me. I don’t enjoy her presence as much during our downtime and get annoyed easily now. The thought of marriage doesn’t get me excited like it once did. She’s an amazing woman and takes care of me, but I don’t know if I’m still able to take care of her. What should I do?
I realized that my dad was just nice to me while knocking on the door to get something from me. But as soon as he noticed that I wasn't going to open and that his emotional manipulation didn't work, he started calling me the worst things he could think of and became extremely aggressive. I think this was his true face. Was it just him being hurt, or was it something else? I don't think so.
I am almost 60 years old and have started looking back at my younger years, especially ages 12 to 32. I believe my frontal lobes came online late, and I developed many strong attachments to girls during that time. I think I fell in love maybe 12 or 13 times. No one ever spoke to me about my brain, and I realize my brain made me a real asshole. I was hurt, and other people were hurt. I take responsibility for my own actions, but is it also OK for me to harbor a little resentment about my education? Would I have listened if someone had told me about it?
