There are 2 situations in which I respond in a way that is becoming increasingly dangerous.
1) I forget sex. This really disturbed my most recent ex, and of course confused a number of other past lovers. Granted, this usually coincides with alcohol - the odd part is, I'll remember EVERYTHING else. I'll remember the pizza we ate before, the t.v. show we watched after, but I'll have NO MEMORY of the sex. To the point where I would get upset with my most recent ex thinking he wasn't attracted to me and he'd have to point out that we just had sex and he couldn't just do it again. It's frustrating because I enjoy sex and enjoy being close to anyone I love. So not remembering it feels like I'm missing out on a significant part of my life.
2) I can't feel physical pain inflicted on me by someone I love. My first serious boyfriend sliced me pretty deep, a few times, with a knife (we were goth kids, it was stupid.) When people ask me "didn't it hurt?" The honest answer is, I didn't feel it. The ex before this current one has a violent temper. One day he shoved dog food down my throat and a few hours later, I forgot. Later that day, I was joyfully playing with his dog and he started crying and apologizing and I couldn't understand what he was talking about. He literally had to REMIND ME that he shoved dog food down my throat.
Does anyone else experience this? What is it?
