Man why do all these things , backup , ghosting etc etc.

If you got a gf , seriously commit with her and uninstall the app and remove everything else. And give it your best.

I am not trying to be judgemental but this is exactly why modern relationships are so shallow.

Removing all female friends because you got a girlfriend seems shallow to me.

Try to relax your mind , and if you feel that bad then tell your current gf , I hope she will understand.

#

Just to be clear, you know what ROCD is?

bleak merlin
#

Wait relationship ocd

#

??

livid oracle
#

Yes

bleak merlin
#

Ah I see.

livid oracle
#

I havent flirted with anyone, i havent cheated, i havent crossed any boundaries, yet I feel like shit and cant get out of bed

bleak merlin
#

Sorry about earlier

livid oracle
#

Its ok

bleak merlin
#

Does your current gf knows you have ROCD?

livid oracle
#

No, but it might be a good place to start

#

but i cant help think i have actually done something wrong

bleak merlin
#

How much time has passed since the relationship

livid oracle
#

A month and a half, but this only hit me hard about 5 days ago

bleak merlin
#

Hmmmm , then try to resolve those thoughts. It's K .
If you didn't keep her as backup , then you didn't.

Try to sit with the anxiety and let brain adapt to it. I have heard OCD cycle strengthens the more someone does compulsions

livid oracle
#

Yeah, but I say "I kept her as a friend because I was guilty of just removing her coz we spoke as friends" and then that leads to "Then you were just keeping her around as a backup" but actually I dont even think I would have gone with her if I didnt even have my current girlfriend

#

its a brutal loop that is agony

bleak merlin
#

Wait you removed her and then readded her

livid oracle
#

Nah

#

I didnt tell her I had a girlfriend at the time becasue it would have just upset her so i procrastinated on it but before hand i had already told her i dont want anything romantic

#

I wasnt trying to appear single is what im saying

bleak merlin
#

So when did you remove her?

livid oracle
#

She removed me when I told her I had a girlfriend, and then I removed her on everything afterwards because I knew she cudnt handle that i have a girlfriend

#

about a week and a bit

bleak merlin
#

And why would she couldn't handle. You already said you wanted nothing romantic

livid oracle
#

maybe she thought there was a chance, i dont know

#

that ones beyond me

bleak merlin
#

I hope you get you resolution , I have to go but before leaving , I just say one thing.

livid oracle
