Folks Shared Things They Thought They Wanted, But Deeply Regretted Afterwards
As a child, I'll be happy if someone gives me candy. When getting a bit older, momma buying me a new gun toy will keep me smiling for days. And now, as an adult, I have a lot of things that I want. However, now that even when I accomplish a certain thing on my wish list, I feel no satisfaction. Desires are what keep us moving forwards. But, all things change as time goes by, and so do our desires.
Sometimes, the moment we finally get the thing we have been longing for ages is the moment we realize that we don't want it anymore. It's sad. It's frustrating and even infuriating. We thought it would be a moment of pure satisfaction and accomplishment, but no, it's plain regret. People are sharing things they thought they wanted but regretted afterward. Scroll down below to check them out.
Then we had sex. Afterward, he’s playing hot and cold and my feelings are on a roller coaster of “what is happening??” Says he just wants to be strictly fwb and not pursue anything more but is still interested in me. *Then* he says he’s not interested in being friends anymore either. Maybe I was too clingy after the initial sweet words, maybe he wasn’t ever truly interested in anything but a one-night thing but either way my head was spinning. I have never doubted myself more. I just wish he would have been more decisive on what he wanted.
Wonderful guy, wish nothing but the best for him but whew, hell of a week. No more fwb for me lmaoo.
I agree with what several commenters have said. If you can afford to have someone do the work for you then it’s something really nice to have. If you can afford the mortgage on the house with the pool but still mow your own lawn, clean your own house, etc. The pool is likely to be more trouble than it’s worth.
