I don't think Doomforge cares about sexual preferences or gender, at all.

He just goes wherever the fickle flame wanders.

but lying makes things easier. in the short term. either you lie to get what you want, or to not hurt your partner.

and what about I shouldn't trust my partner? what's the point of having a partner you don't trust?

and she knows she is beautiful

well, seriously it depends who you are. some men are more interesting to abuse than others. if you are Bill Gates, you should be wondering why this girl is interested in you

That would be convenient But nah, my sexuality is set in stone, I knew I am heterosexual since I was like 4 years old.


Fauch: In between trust and mistrust, there is the neutral feeling I prefer myself. People constantly cheat on each other, why to believe YOU are the chosen in your relationship and will never face it? That would be overoptimistic. Did you know how many fathers rises someone else's kids? The estimated percentage is horrifying.

In other words, a bit of skepticism never hurts.

I don't understand the logic behind that.

Let's say you buy a car able to go 250 km/h per hour. Now, you know, though, that cars at that speed are dangerous to drive and a lot of accidents happen - so you decide to never go faster than 200.

Why buy a car that fast then in the first place?

I mean, either you start a relationship and put full trust into it - or you avoid a close relationship altogether.

JJ: I don't like the binary "everything or nothing" type of reasoning. Both "full trust" or "lonely forever" options simply don't fit in my lifestyle.

And the car example is bad because you can never judge how "faithful" the other person is by looking at him/her. Just because someone is less pretty doesn't mean he/she is more faithful. Well, if that's what you implied, of course.

You know how fast a car can go, but you can never guess what trick another person can perform on you.

Plus, I like to play it safe. No high hopes = no disappointment.

That's kind of a very convenient interpretation of what I meant, but it's not correct.

What I mean is not full-on relationship or nothing but the type of "interaction" that fits you.
If you don't trust another person there is just no foundation for a serious relationship. Which isn't bad in itself - you don't need a serious relationship to interact with others.
But make no mistake: if you don't want to trust another person, it's not the fault of the other person or all the persons in the world that may or may not have broken trust.
You are just afraid of a disappointment.

This is not much different from everything else you risk or don't risk.

As Rudyard Kipling said: Raise your stakes into all or nothing and if you lose, start all over again, until you succeed.

Well, not in those exact words, but I can't be bothered to look up 'if-'. And I'm pretty sure he was talking about something else than love, but I think it's the same prinicple.

I kinda disagree. It would be a burden to hope for too much. The other person doesn't need to know, too. It's not that I run around paranoid telling people I don't trust them. It's only that I always consider the other person cheating or getting bored of me a possibility. Let's be realistic: it happens all the time. As I said before, it would be overly optimistic to simply believe you are the lucky one.

Imho, it's much better to maintain a bit of skepticism. I'm not a jealous person; I am extremely understanding in relationships and never accuse anyone of anything, unless it turns ridiculous - like my last affair and even in such cases, I never act jealous, I just talk, if it doesn't help - I quit.

Usually people call that kind of giving a free hand to a partner "trust", but I simply know that me running around spying and stalking, accusing and overreacting would be funny and pointless. So I just let things go natural way ; nothing really surprises me this way

Is it fear? I think it's more of a convenient way of living. I mean, why bother? If someone wants to cheat on you, it's usually inevitable. Best is imho to give her a free hand, and NOT to rise hopes too much. just for the sake of safety


It doesn't stop me from caring for the other person, too.
