Did I read the situation wrong, did I deserve to get blocked from them?

Just had a first date on Sunday afternoon. I thought it went pretty good, nothing like sparks flying but we spent 3 & 1/2 hours together on the beach & walking in the park talking. At the end of the date, she even said "We should do this again, next time near you!" I came near where she lives... almost 50 miles away from my house. It felt like it was worthy to keep talking and texting to setup a second date. We are both 34.

She had read receipts from iMessage enabled. I sent her a text when getting home on Sunday taking her for the lovely time.

Monday morning I text her about just how I got sunburn from our time. No read receipt.

Wait until the evening and do a hand wave emoji. Read, no reply.

At this point, something just felt off, so I sent her a text saying, "It feels like you don't wanna continue, if that's the case just let me know and I won't bother you again"

Delivered; no read receipt.

Goto the dating app, conversation disappeared, and I'm able to figure out she blocked me on the dating app. (Random user can see her account, my account cannot) I think she blocked me after my 3rd text message of just a waving hand.

I feel like... ok what did I do that was wrong? What warranted me to get blocked? Should I just write this off as them as lying or not being upfront? They changed their mind and just suck at communicating? Do women just block guys when they are done with them?

I wouldn't mind or care if she didn't tell me "We should do this again near you!" Without me asking if we should do a second date. It felt bad to be on the receiving end of this. I already suck enough on dating, I suck at reading signs and I don't know if there is something I did or missed that caused them to change their mind like this.

The difference between being right and being understood

My boyfriend and I are 28. We’ve been together for about 1.5 years and recently moved in together. He’s a pretty patient and easygoing person (Type B) whereas I’m more particular (Type A). Of course there are two sides to every trait, and my Type A nature benefits us in some ways too. Like all couples, we have differences in perspective or preference. When this happens, he will usually say something like “I disagree (with your perspective) but fine.” I tend to push the issue in an attempt to get him to understand where I’m coming from. This escalates the disagreement into a fight because he perceives it as me trying to be “right”. I truly just want to be understood (and I want to understand where he’s coming from) so I’m looking for more of a dialogue whereas he avoids conflict and just wants it to be over as quickly as possible. His general approach is “agree to disagree” but that doesn’t make sense to me when it’s an issue that will keep coming up and requires compromise. I’m n...

My (27f) gf (27f) is getting tired of me not sharing intimate/ personal info about me

I’ve always been extremely private and introverted. We have more than a year together and we’ve been living together for like 6 months, we get along pretty good and I’m really in love with her, however I can not seem to open up... and I can tell it’s frustrating to her by the way she tells me it bothers her that she feels she’s the only one committed and the one that’s always sharing... At this point I don’t even know if it is that I’ve gotten too used to it, to the point I’ve became lazy to talk about myself or give any genuine personal opinion... it sucks, really, I need to communicate better... Where do I start? Tl;dr: I can’t be completely intimate with my gf and its frustrating her, I need to communicate better because I really love her... where to start?

My (23M) girlfriend (25F) relationship is confusing to me. I might be the problem, or maybe we are just incompatible.

I met my girlfriend after a few serious breakups that led me to change both intentionally and unintentionally over a few years. For better and for worse. She had just gotten out of an engagement with a verbally and physically abusive man who had a cocaine problem. We have been together about 8 months now. We hit it off and spent a lot of time together but she began to push our relationship as if there were a time clock for milestones. I was pressed beyond my comfort zone and went with it because of my affection for her. My living situation fell apart and I lost a few thousand dollars to shit roommates right around the time she and I met and she offered to let me stay with her. I agreed with some resistance. I pay for food, help her with bills, and throw money toward rent while trying to get back on my feet. As long as we have been together she has gotten more possessive, angry, and irrational. She is dealing with shit from her engagement and I feel shes looking for a level of seriou...
