Tinder and being nervous to meet up with someone. Low confidence

So, I haven't used Tinder in four years. I matched up with someone I find attractive of course and we have been talking for 5 days now just off and on when we have time to message each other.

Being 25 and female and him being 29 male I figure I am okay with age difference and prefer men who are that age anyway. Note: he is LDS but I am eventually leaving the church....maybe it wouldn't hurt to have a makeout buddy? Anyway, we have been just talking and asking each other questions here and there and I want to ask him out and it seems like he wants to ask me but he is too nervous to do so or something. He will ask me for example, movies I like and mention there is a long weekend coming up and that he isn't going to be busy. And hints that he may want to do something. Is this a normal thing or should I ask him out or just let the conversation keep going until he asks me or what?

On the other hand, like I said I haven't used the tinder app in a long time because I am more old fashioned I guess. I am also not looking for anything serious unless we Realllly hit it off I guess.

Last thing, I feel self conscious about my body because I used to be in good shape and now I am not as in shape as I was because of life right... However, I am currently working hard to get back to who I was physically because I felt sexy then. I also haven't been rejected a ton in my life and am afraid of it.

I don't want him to see me and then turn away because I am a little chubby (however working my ass off at the gym and eating well).

I have been told I am very attractive by others so I am just not sure....

Overall, I guess it doesn't matter what people think but I want to be the best version of myself but it's difficult right now.

Just have a fear of being stood up if we decided to meet.

Ugh lol

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...
