It's that respect is subjective.

For example I would ask "do you want to do this with me?" and she says "yes", but sad and mentally praying that I understand that that's a "no".

I fucking understand YES. And so I act according to YES. Which ends up being disrespectful of her free will.

I have lost sensibility, became a machine, working on pure logic and nothing else. I used to understand those nuances. Not anymore.

It's not easy. A world of pain have turned me into a less sensible being.

I am sorry, but that's not respect...that's manipulation.

A No means a No, a Yes means a Yes. If someone says to you otherwise, you are being gaslightening. Stay away from toxic people. Authentic people won't play mind games.

I hope this helps.

I don't know your story, but we create defence mechanisms to operate in a "toxic" environment. Your sensitivity is still inside you, you have lost nothing. Your mind is doing tricks on you. I would advice you to get away and heal. Tell no one, just go, leave without warning. Abuse, is abuse. No one should go throught it.

I appreciate the empathy.

Some people rely on unspoken communication more than other.

I lost that ability at some point and became less sensible. The world turned me into a different man.

Now it's too late. The only thing left is, ironically, good memories. The worst form of torture.
