[quote=Anonymous]Op here. Thanks for the input. The new man treats me fine right now. But we are not in the trenches together either. I'm afraid of what things will look like when life's pressures are thrown into the mix. People behave differently under pressure, my ex surely did. I just wonder if it's possible for someone to [u]not[/u] receive a mother's nurturing as a child, then grow up to have an emotionally healthy adult relationship without getting professional counseling. I don't want to hold it against this guy, but I'm afraid of what I cannot see beneath the superficial layers. My ex was great, at first. Loving, warm, kind. Then over time it changed, he became distant, verbally/emotionally abusive, etc...He wasn't able to handle the day-to-day pressures of life. His anxiety overwhelmed him and I got the brunt of it all. I don't want this to be a pattern for me - selecting the same type of guy who doesn't have healthy coping mechanisms. [/quote]
