It doesn't seem like you're being taken advantage of or played, but it does seem like she has other customers and sugar daddies besides you. You are supporting her from afar voluntarily and that's risky business.

Is this happening at work? If so, it's sexual harassment and you can report it.

Sorry this is happening. Do you live together? Do you two ever go out on dates? It seems you're incompatible if you would rather have a committed relationship and he would rather hang with friends and be a party animal.. Rather than focus on "triggering", fo focus on whether you're compatible. He doesn't seem to want to be tied down to a relationship.

Are either of you scheduled for an arranged marriage? Why doesn't your family approve? Are you from different cultures? Did you meet at University? Do you fight often? If he's insulting you and flights are getting this ugly it may be time to reconsider the relationship. It seems like you "forgive" him too much and tolerate shabby treatment.

Because you're together a lot and tried out sexting she had to draw the line and rein it in. This is just good boundaries on her part. You seem to have a very complicated relationship with her mostly because you want sexuality included and she just wants the companionship. That could be where your frustration and hurt comes from. But it's unclear what that has to do with TMI, vulnerability or being a bull in a china shop as far as others feelings. She simply knows when to draw the line, maybe that's new to you?

That's because she's consistent mature and wants to stay in touch, not because you had to play games to "build attraction". If she didn't want to text you, she wouldn't, so the game theory is nonsense. Try to relax and have confidence in yourself. Anyone you have to play games with to get their attention is not worth it. She is tending to the budding relationship because she knows from experience that jerks play ghosting games and she hated that. When she returns you can figure out a mutually convenient time to get together. Her spa weekend was not a result of anything you did since you're only dating a matter of days and she had a full life and friends etc before you met.

Getting stuck in analysis paralysis isn't going to help you relate better to this older lady friend. She's lonely, you're lonely. It's okay to talk about whatever you want to talk about but she's not your therapist or guru. You may need to get away and go to a new city, but not because someone encouraged you to over share, but because you're in a strange neither here nor there relationship with this retired lady and hiding from life and real relationships. This lady actually is your "armor against equal and real relationships, just like the sugar babies. So you can run but you'll run into the same power struggling.

This poster has great success with women and dating apps, so delusions of envy is just another symptom of your narcissism.

Please try to be yourself rather than overcompensating and getting on the over sharing bandwagon. Trust your instincts. If over sharing is uncomfortable, there's a reason. Your frontal cortex and executive functioning is designed for editing, not jumping on trends that insist everyone let everything all hang out. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/speaking-in-tongues/202309/too-much-information

How did you encounter them? Have you met in person? Hopefully you haven't sent nudes or given out any personally identifying data or details. This seems like a scammer or catfish who is giving you BS about voodoo or whatever to scam you. Its as simple as delete and block this weird entity. Perhaps reflect what voids and emptiness led you down this dark path. Are you lonely or isolated?

Agree you're certainly not "bombarding her, especially since she says she likes the texts and is replying. Listen to your own intuition.

Agree. Also "What women "say" they want and what actually attracts them and keeps them attracted are often times two entirely different things", is pickup artist rubbish assuming women are brainless bimbo's who don't know what they want. . Listen to her to get to know about her, not rule book myths.

This is an excellent approach. Much better than ghosting, game playing and deciding to cut back on what she likes in order to play some tat-for-tat games. Why start a power struggle because some people believe in arbitrary "rules"? The issue she has is not texting. It's your contentious (or perhaps mercurial?) relationship with your ex. So try to fix whatever that's about rather than creating unnecessary issues. Smooth things out with your ex and custody issues so that you can focus on developing your budding relationship.

You seem to be hitting it off well and honest with each other. Please don't ghost her while she's on vacation especially since she likes the texts and the jerk before you did that. Don't be that jerk. As far as a spa weekend, that could have been planned even before you met. So breathing room is fine. Slow down and pace yourself means not rushing into combining lives this intensely. It doesn't mean being a jerk and ghosting her by refusing to text while she's on vacation.

Sorry this is happening. Please try to focus on your current relationship and rebuilding trust. Your GF has a valid point. There's no need to stay in touch with this ex. Hopefully you will delete and block the ex if it's causing issues in your current situation.

Consistency equals confidence. Push-pull PUA games like suddenly not texting is flaky and considering it's a relationship in its infancy, it's better to be confident than resorting to games. As far as her so-called games, she's on vacation. They're feeling each other out and she doesn't seem "mercurial", just on vacation not well known. The most important thing is getting the ex baggage out of the picture and not superimposing it on to budding relationships. It's always better to lead with confidence.
