/u/anonymousposter357 on I just really need to rant

You told her it would be okay if you had an open relationship, as long as she told you everything. After agreeing to this, she proceeds to break her word and be all secretive and dishonest about it instead. She then proceeds to hypocritically get mad at you for appearing to possibly do something similar. I think you need to call her out on this. If this relationship is to be salvaged, these very substantial issues need to be addressed. If she can't admit where she was wrong, that's probably a huge red flag. July 09, 2019 at 12:04AM

Your "friends" sound like idiots. That may be a massive oversimplification, but from what you've described of them here that's really all I can say. July 08, 2019 at 11:54PM

Inside the Mind of a Serial Dater. (NSFW)

London, 2019. Everyone dates, right? But usually, people are looking for love, or a one-night stand, or can go on a date every-other-Sunday. To get to how I am now a full blown addict to dating, I need you to understand why I’m now like this. Some people are shy to the idea, others wait weeks to make sure they like the person enough to give them a whole TWO HOURS of their lives, imagine that! All those wasted weeks, for one date that will probably fizzle out after less time than it took to have the date in the first place. I moved to London heartbroken and desperate to enjoy the single life. I’m 23, and hadn’t been single since my first boyfriend 8 years previously. Figuring out where to start? Tinder seemed too young, too ‘uncool’ for this new version of me. I was sat with my best friend on a bus when she introduced me to Hinge. Within a minute I had close to 20 likes, and the games began. Now, don’t get me wrong, I was a newborn in the world of city dating. I still believed tha...

He hasn’t set up another “date”. Does this mean he’s not interested anymore?

So I met this guy on tinder and we’ve been on two dates so far. The last one was last Monday. Every time I message him he messages back but he hasn’t tried to see me again. Today he messaged me that he saw my profile on bumble and told me that I need to change some of my pictures on there (which I’m glad because I don’t even know how those pictures got on bumble but that’s another story). I thought he was going to ask me to hang out but nothing. Do you think he’s still interested or is he already tired of me? I would ask him to hang out but I’m too nervous to set up a “date”.

girl left me off on a curious note, confused and sorta saddened

so ive been going out with this girl for a few weeks now, great person, had exactly the same personality and same humor as me, i thought things were going great emotionally. we had a few dates that lasted forever with both of us having the time of our lives. tried breaking the "touch barrier" and it worked out with her smiling back. after each date i couldn't shake the feeling of "im not romantically attracted" but also very attracted to everything that falls under the romance catogory if that makes sense. i funny thing is right after the most recent date she sent me a text and it read along the lines of "i just think there wasn't a lot romantically going between us, which sometimes is the case...(blah blah had fun though and sends a meme after)" me being torn between - i need this person in a relationship to reap all benefits of revitalization and undying fun with extra spice- and - a underlying sense of a somehow not a compatible fit even though...

[29/M] I just can't seem to make it work out, get to a second date.

I don't date often, never been a big hit with women. When I do however, even when the date is going what seems to be fantastic from my own perspective, it doesn't lead to a second date, and even leads to me being ghosted I know first impressions are important and I do everything in my power to be a good date, and to make sure the person im out with is comfortable and my focus. Im not desperate for a relationship, and I'll find it when it happens. But I would love more than one date to make that kind of impression now and then.

Should I Be Waiting for My Best Self

I [M20] was engrossed by someone who has eventually found someone else. But every time I interact with her, it makes me want to improve myself (i.e pursue my passions more intensely, work harder, get more in shape). I'm not entirely over her but I've come to terms with the fact that I want to look to dating other people (to get out of this "she was the only one for me mindset"). But I feel as though I'm turned off by the idea of dating because I'm not the "best version of myself" yet: There are personal goals I want to achieve (things like getting more in shape, being a better home cook etc.) before I put myself out there. Is this a "healthy/normal" mentality? I can't tell if I'm just delaying the fact that I want to start dating again by telling myself I need to achieve my goals first. I just feel as though it's somewhat weird to tell someone, "I'm learning to be a better home cook": Because if you don't fo...

How do you date without a vehicle?

[22m]Currently have no car at the moment. Do girls really care if you don’t have a vehicle, and is not having a car a huge deal breaker?

What just happened??

I went to a grad party for one of my friends that went to a different highschool. Party went fine, ended around 6 but I knew there girl well and she said I could stay if I wanted. I ended up hanging out with her and one of her friends until about 11pm. Biding my time because it was a long drive home. Towards the end of the night, my friends, friend asks if she can give me her number. I said sure and handed her my phone. I watched as she put her name and number into my phone. Then my friend asked my a question and distracted me. I turn back and get my phone back. Then like a half hour later, I'm looking to see if anyone texted me and I realize that the girl not only put her number in my phone, but also texted herself. Is the harmless or a red flag? I'm not mad or anything just curious as to why she may have done this I'm (m19) and she's (f18) Submitted July 08, 2019 at 11:36PM I went to a grad party for one of my friends that went to a different highschool.

Would you talk everyday with someone if the potential relationship had just become sexual?

So....there’s this guy (29M) I’m (26F) trying to date but are schedules are shit. We have slept together almost every time we’ve seen each other for the past two months, and the sex is great, probably wouldn’t still be doing it if I didn’t enjoy it so much. So yeah, we’ve been struggling to make room for dates but managing to fit in sex. We’re still messaging everyday, not always big conversations but still everyday without fail. I want to ask when he can see me next but it’s making me feel needy and I hate that. I just don’t know if he’s gone seeing me as a potential person to date to now a FBW or whatever. Communication isn’t their strong point...... Submitted July 08, 2019 at 11:36PM So....there’s this guy (29M) I’m (26F) trying to date but are schedules are shit.

Need some serious advice

So I am talking to this girl on Tinder and I asked her if she wanted to go out and eat, she said yes, but now she suggests that we order take-out and eat at her place instead? Keep in mind I have never met this girl, and she is already inviting me to her place? I have not been with other girls since me and my ex broke up 6 months ago, and I am pretty nervous to be honest, what do you think of the situation?

She can’t decide what she wants and I’m stuck in limbo wondering if my relationship is over or not

My fiancé [22F] and I [22M] have been together 7 years. We have been doing semi long distance (4 hours away) for the past 4 year while she finishes up college. I’m a firefighter so my schedule let me visit often. But recently we have been going through a very bad rough patch. We couldn’t have a conversation without it ending in a fight and we were both starting to develop a little bit of resentment toward each other. So we decided that we need to shit down and have a hard conversation. The rules were; 1- you don’t speak over each other and the person speaking needs to stay calm and collected. 2- we tell each other EVERYTHING no matter how hard it is to say and the other person can not get upset and blow up they have to listen and be calm 3- We have to LISTEN, no putting walls up because something upset you and no getting defensive because you feel attacked. The conversation was extremely hard to have on both ends, but it was pack with so much information and we both learned a lot....

Not as attracted to person as I thought I was. Would like advice

So I (22 M) met this girl from work (19) and we hit it off. She was part of our 4th of July group and we talked a lot during that day. I got her Snapchat because there was just something about her I liked despite her not being the most physically attractive person. It’s kinda weird because I never thought I would be hanging out with her in a more than friends way. Yesterday I came to her place and watched Netflix. We cuddled and she kissed me a few times on the neck. She obviously likes me, and I think I like her too - only problem is I don’t feel a strong physical attraction to her. I liked the cuddling but I just simply didn’t feel sexual towards her - more like a comfort, close intimate, sweet presence that made me feel loved, it’s hard to explain. She is one of the easiest people to talk to as well. I just couldn’t kiss her or go any further physically besides cuddling because I just didn’t feel THAT attracted. TLDR: Was curious about a girl I met at work, turns out I don’t like...

How do you know when your relationship is over?

I love them and leaving would be the most painful thing in the world but I'm not growing and they are and I find nothing enjoyable when they're not around.

Validation

Why did she literally just drunk call me claiming that I hated her for dumping me? We haven't talked in months and that's what you call me with. Told me to promise her that I didnt hate her, and called me a good person. It happens everytime I'm about to finally move on. I'm fairly certain that this was a self validation call, and I fell for it. Submitted July 08, 2019 at 11:54PM Why did she literally just drunk call me claiming that I hated her for dumping me?

Why is initiating a kiss so difficult? I'm pretty extroverted but kissing some is so difficult for me on the first time. I need advice on when is the right time to go for a kiss.

So some background I just got out of 7 month relationship around spring break and I had kissed the girl, stayed the night, and had sex for my first time after just meeting in person. ( We had been talking 3 months before that as she lived in a different state up untill the point of meeting in person) she had been the one to initiate more in that starting part of the relationship. After meeting her I had no problem initiating sex, kissing, etc. As I am currently back in the dating scene and have gone out on a date with this awesome girl I can't seem to think of the right time to kiss her or anything. She seems to me at the very least to be very awkward. On our third date we went to watch firework at her campus and I had kept moving closer to her in the spot we had be sitting to attempt the very least to hold her hand or something ( I got the vibe that she was uncomfortable at least in the super crowded area.) So I waited till after when walking away from the area which we had decid...

So, first date incoming

As the title says, I'll be having my first date tomorrow(wed). And I'm anxious as fuck. I know why, because first time shit, but really now, I'm not that kind of person, yeah? I mean I ain't showing nothing on the outside, but dying on the inside. Also I am a very sociable person. So, guys and girls, I need advice. Please.
