So, I am in a management position in a manufacturing facility. I meet with vendor sales people on a regular basis. Recently I have met a young lady who I have taken an interest in for more than what I purchase from her. I am married but my marriage has been on the brink of collapse long before I met this young lady. Now i am even less interested in making things work. This women is much younger than me. She is in her early 20s and i am in my mid 30s. She doesnt even live in the same state but she isn't terribly far from where i live. I feel a connection when she stops in. When she visits there is something to do with the business end of things but there is a lot of chatting about personal life, likes, wants etc. I feel like she may be interested in me but im not sure. I just dont know how I would go about expressing interest to her. Would it be out of line or creepy for me to ask her to lunch? I dont know how the relationship would even work but I just can not stop thinking about ...

This guy who I thought I was friends with is acting all weird all of a sudden like I would text him and he wouldn’t reply back or for example yestedsy he messaged me saying “what you saying” and I replied back and he didn’t say anything back like wtf ur the one who messaged me first lol but today for example I messaged him about a way for him to make money and let me tell you he replied back soooo fast and he was replying back to every single thing. We used to talk and chill all the time like he was one of my good friends why do you think he’s acting like that? What should I do about it?

For background, I am 26F and he is 27f and we met on Tinder. We have been on three dates so far. The first date, we met for drinks at a local pub. We maybe hung out for 3 hours? It was nice but nothing amazing. I did think he was very good looking in person. We texted infrequently after the first date. He asked me on a second date but not for almost 3 weeks. I met him for drinks, we kissed for the first time and it was good... A week later (last week) he said he could meet me but he had been out all day. I invited him over to mine for drinks but he said we should go to the pub instead. We went for a drink. He ended up coming up to my apartment afterwards anyway and we made out for about an hour. It probably would have gone further but he had to work very early. After this, he has text me daily (usually first) but it is only short conversations (2-3 messages each max). I know he will probably text me on his day off asking to go for drinks. I am confused because if he just wanted ...

There’s a guy [21M] I [20F] have been speaking to. We know each other but have matched on tinder and been chatting a bit, and now moved over to text and Snapchat. I really like speaking to him. I do think I like him, and I get hints that he likes me, but I still don’t know if he’s just being nice and friendly because we do know each other and have to see each other every week. Like for example, he remembers things I say, and he tells me I’m sweet and he’s good at replying usually, conversations flow well. But then when we see each other we don’t actually speak at all? We have a lecture together every Thursday and maybe because I have different friends in the class to him, we just don’t end up talking or even saying hi to each other. To be honest I can’t even look at him because I’m so nervous, and it always makes me think oh god he doesn’t actually like me does he, he is just being nice. What can I do to increase my confidence so I can actually speak to him? I’m going to make extr...

So, I'm trying to meet some guys(and gals) to see what my options are. I met a guy off tinder and we ended up being each other's meme dealers and being friends. I actually started having a crush on him because he was respectful and did not straight up ask me to hook up. Well, this past sunday, he asked me to go to his place and watch a movie and cuddle Wednesday evening. I got super excited, bragging to my friends ab how cute and respectful he was. Come Wednesday, I got all cute and ready to go. I made it to his place and he took me to Target just to mess with the halloween stuff then we went and got some taco bell to go. We went back to his place, ate and watched a movie. We cuddled then made out. But during this, my roommate(a close friend of mine) was also at a boys house. She hasn't responded or called me back so I got worried and cut the date short(even tho it was like 1AM lol) to open a can of whoop ass on a dude(she was FINE. She fell asleep at his place). The next ...

Like I said in the title, I am tired of being single. It’s great, don’t get me wrong, but I’ve only ever had one gf (I’m 20) last year and it was the worst 6 months of my life. She treated me poorly and made me feel like I wasn’t important enough to her. I want to get back out there and date. I’ve gone on several dates since we broke up in June, but none of them have lead anywhere. I’ve been rejected, turned down, lied to and ghosted more so than ever before in my romantic life. I feel like I’m at the end of my metaphorical rope. I just want to actually find a girl who is interested in me and wants a relationship, but no girls in my area seem to want that- at least with me. What can I do? I always make sure I’m clean and respectful, I’m on Tinder, Bumble, etc, I talk to friends but nothing is working. Do you guys have any ideas?

Help with whether or not to ask my childhood crush out on a date. I am 20 years old and just recently moved to a new city. I have never had a girlfriend before in my life and have never kissed nor done anything more than that. At the age of 20, I have become increasingly interested in dating and finding a girlfriend, but I have a hard time approaching this. I have, as many before me, downloaded Tinder, Bumble and so on. I have gotten a few matches, but nothing that has amounted to anything. I would not say I am desperate, but there is this one girl that I can't get out of my mind. She was the first girl I crushed on when I was about 10. She lives in the city, I have just moved from, but I really want to contact her and ask her on a date. Even though she has never showed any signs of liking me and in many ways it seems quite stupid to try and start dating a person that lives 3-4 hours from me. Also I know her best friend has had feelings for me, so I feel everything about this is ...

So I have a group of friends which I always hang out with, in this group there is a guy who's feelings I'm not sure of. We always hang out in this group, never just the two of us. We have been friends for quite some time, but lately I've noticed that something might have changed. He is a very kind and generous person, never says no. Often helps people, always have a smile on his face, But somehow when he looks at me it feels different, we often meat each others eyes if someone makes a joke or we start to laugh. If I disappear from our group of friends, he often looks for me and checks quickly if I'm okay. He noticed once that I was cold and gave me his hoodie. Our hands often touch when we exchange stuff, like cellphones, and he isn't uncomfortable with this touch. We text sometimes, send memes and such, and he often answers right away. But we don't text super much. Also there have been some other moments too which have wondering if he likes me more than a fri...

Hi guys! Met someone at my gym and he pursued me pretty quickly. Constantly texting, setting up times to work out together, making an effort to talk to me. This was going on for like 2 months. Well he finally decided to offer to hang out outside the gym....bought dinner and brought it over to my apartment. So we watched movies, talked a lot, ended up cuddling. Then he goes to make a move and we make out for a few minutes. He tried to take it further, but I️ said no because I️ thought it was too soon. This was our first time hanging out outside the gym and I️ still didn’t know him that well. Plus I told him “not right now” not “no” forever. Anyway everything seemed fine the whole week following that, but this past week he has been super distant, not responding to messages the way he used to, and not coming up to talk to me in the gym. But he still eventually responds and asks me when I’m working out. So my question is, was he just looking to bone and is now not interested because I️ t...

Here’s the break down: (TLDR at the bottom) About five months ago, I became friends with benefits with a guy who had just gotten out of a relationship. As it usually goes with fwb, I developed feelings for him. He claimed to have feelings for me as well. He moved away from our mutual city in month two, and I moved away in month four. All during this time, we continued to talk, but also went on dates with other people. Despite that, my feelings stayed the same and even got stronger, while his faded. We saw each other for a week before I moved and at the end of the week, we decided to stop being friends and put a no contact rule in place because I was getting too hurt by the situation. Two weeks later after no contact, I messaged him about how upset I was by all the ways he led me on. I just wanted to get it off my chest. He responded telling me how much he had missed me, how bad he felt, how he wanted to reach out and apologize, blah blah. We chatted for a bit and he told me he think...

So! Interested in a girl, we don't know each other much, but I just kinda figured "hey I'll invite her to a movie, why not", she actually said she'd go... But after I bought up a specific movie and when she'd be free, she stopped responding. Should I back off? Is there something I can say to grab her interest? Maybe just leave a message saying when I'm free? Submitted October 19, 2019 at 12:04AM So!

My girlfriend of a month now is trying to get away from me for reasons that i don't know of. She's not texting me like before, not replying, not interested in talking to me. We've had a good relationship and i don't know why is she doing this. It's making me even more depressed.

So there is a guy(25M) in my (24F) program who I think is cute/interesting. We haven’t really hung out one on one ever and I don’t have his phone number. We are Facebook friends though, and I was thinking of asking him what he’s doing tonight, to see if he wants to hang out. I don’t want to come on too strong or make things weird in the future if he’s not interested. For whatever reason I get really nervous about people knowing that I like them, so I try to play cool and I wonder if I play it too cool sometimes? He’s new to town, so I don’t know if he has a lot of friends or things to do on the weekend besides study. Facebook just seems like a silly platform to initiate conversation with to me. Pros/cons of asking him to hang out this way? Submitted October 19, 2019 at 12:10AM So there is a guy(25M) in my (24F) program who I think is cute/interesting.

Hi everyone, so I have a couple of concerns that I need advice on. One of my biggest insecurities till this day is the fact that among my friends/peers I’ve always been the late bloomer. Not in terms of looks because I’ve always been the most attractive one out of all my friends and had the best figure (I’m not trying to sound arrogant but it’s true). But, I was the last one to get my drivers license which I got at 18, last one to have my first kiss and relationship which I got at 21! I feel really insecure next to my friends and the guy I’m dating in that aspect. The guy I’m dating and like a lot kinda intimidates me. He doesn’t try to make me feel bad about myself, I kinda just feel that way myself because I feel like he’s out of my league. He achieved normal teenage milestones at a regular age. He got his drivers license at 16, started dating at 15/16 and has a lot more experience with girls than I do with guys. He’s literally the first guy to come into my life that I actually like...

For some background I am a (18m) college freshman and I’m crushing on an (18f) freshman. We have been friends since day 1 of college. So me and this girl met the first week of college and have been hitting it off. We share the same friend group so we see each other essentially every day. After the first like 3 weeks of hanging out with her I developed a pretty big crush on her. One morning after we got breakfast together just me and her I told her how I had been feeling. She politely told me that she just wasn’t ready for a relationship. I accepted this as we were only 3 weeks into college. Since then I have met a lot of different girls who I could see myself dating and I’m trying to keep my options open, but I REALLY like this one girl. Luckily, nothing was awkward between us. Fast forward like a month and half we are much closer. She finds some excuse to call me literally everyday. She visits my dorm for surprise visits about 3 times a week with her best friend and sometimes alon...

My girlfriend used to come to my hostel when we wanted to make out.One of my friends once help us sneak her in.My girlfriend told me after a week that she finds her very attractive.She said she liked how she takes control of everything. Now,after 6 months,It was her birthday yesterday. my friend wished her on instagram.We were lying on the bed on that time.I saw her reaction when she read her wish. Then I read my girlfriends chats with her friend.She said that she has multiple crushes among girls."I have a crush on my boyfriend's friend,she said" I am super insecure and sad.I just cannot stop thinking about it.We had discussed about her sexuality before.She told me about her sexuality after got into a relationship.It took me a while to come to terms with that.We were fine for months but now that I know that one of her major crushes is my friend. That fear of not being enough has come up all over again. I love her a lot and can not afford to lose her.I do not want to soun...

I've been chatting on and off with a guy I met on one of the online dating sites. We're finally ready to meet. He just now told me that one of his parents recently got diagnosed with a serious cancer. My heart breaks for him and his family, but I'm torn about whether I should proceed with meeting him. I'm not sure I'm in a place right now where I can get involved in something this heavy. I don't know what that would mean for his ability to be present in a relationship. If I were *already* in a relationship with him or if we were already friends, that would be a different story. OR if he had waited to tell me after we'd been on at least one or two dates, that also would be different. But in this case, we've never even met and I have no real emotional connection or even strong attraction to him (it's hard for me to be attracted to people I've only met online). Also I have noticed a bit of a pattern in the communication with him, but maybe it'...

Unless it's relevant or someone directly asks me I don't feel the need to bring it up. Any potential romantic partners I definitely tell up front. Side effect of this is some of my queer friends give me shit for being a cis-het when I'm not. It kind of stings but I usually just shrug it off. October 19, 2019 at 12:02AM
