Does anyone else get nervous when you really like someone and they actually like you back? I’m currently dating someone and basically falling for him and I sense he’s doing the same. It’s like being in a freaking Hollywood movie. Past experience has led me to remain on high alert for red flags at all times, and not expect it to work out... but, despite best efforts, I find myself falling completely in love with him, body and soul.

How important is it for the person you're dating to have extensive friendships outside of the relationship? I've moved around in the past four years to new cities due to graduate school and now work, and I've noticed that this seems to be a red flag in dating. I understand the reasons why as I wouldn't want someone else to feel like I'm their "everything" or feel like I would be dependent on their social circle, but despite being a busy independent person with interests and hobbies outside of my career, I find people are quickly turned off by this. It's funny and somewhat ironic that now as a thirty-year-old I am far better equipped in life yet the opportunities for friendships and dating are scarcer.

I feel in love with him probably from the beginning. A bit of a late bloomer at 23 to lose my virginity, but I wasn’t attached just because he took it but because we clicked so well, he was so kind, so handsome, and spoke about the future with me. The way he looked was as if I manifested the exact guy that I would have wanted and then on top of that he was so good to me. He looked me in the eyes and told me how grateful he was to have met me and how much he cared about me. He told me that I am showing him the positives of living where we live since he had just moved here when I met him. It’s not enough. He’s pulled away because he’s so unhappy here. He is so unhappy with everything else that he’s getting cold and wants to be alone. It’s so painful. I was so excited that I finally found someone that I could love and maybe they would fall in love with me. I told so many people that I found someone good and after all those years single and all those bad dates that I finally found someon

tl;dr a) being pragmatic really helps with this and it's not their fault they're not into you; b) you have to make an effort to present yourself in the best light you can without lying to them and to yourself; c) giving your potential dates the benefit of the doubt in relation to looks and personality pays off; d) practice makes perfect, and e) if you're not confident enough, you're just gonna have to fake it or drug yourself into it. I'm sorry, but I seriously doubt this narrative that there is a "Chad" class of men that gets the all the attention from women and that THAT is the reason average guys like you and me get nearly no matches or no response or don't have a relationship. Of course looks get the girls' attention and of course if you're looking to have sex with and get the attention of (conventionally) attractive girls, being more attractive and conventionally masculine gives you a significant edge. And of course being considered ugly

A couple of days ago i saw this post about setting dating goals for your self that you can controll. For instance: Do -> "I am going to ask 50 girls out this year" Dont -> "i am going to sleep with 50 girls this year" I though this sounded awesome and for the first time in a year i thought that i might be able to do this. I decided that monday after work I was gonne install tinder again and try to get back in on the dating scene. The thing is while at work i started a toxic train of thougt wich went somthing like this: "Who on earth would want to be with someone that - hates his 0700 - 1500 five days a week job, and is left compleatly exhausted when he gets home. is only have 4 hours every day where he is not sleeping or working still lives at home not particulary good looking Then it went over to thinking that: yes, i might get a couple of matches and there is a chance that i could end up going on a date with someone it would only feel like i t

I'm not sure if this has been said before but I've recently gotten out of a pretty dark spot in my life and have started developing a crush again! As we grow up and become adults I feel like the idea of having a crush can be shut down as "being passive" or just "not taking a chance" but honestly there is so much fun in just having this crush. Like the random little messages from them here and there, posting something and waiting for them to see it or like it, the little butterflies when you make them laugh. Sometimes the crush stage is just a fun little bubble to be in for a bit.

I met this girl at party a few days ago, shes cute and when i talked to her she seemed really chill. While we were talking, it seemed to me like i caught her attention, she laughed at all my jokes and dumb moments and she was a really good conversationalist. I managed to get her name before i left but i forgot to ask for her instagram or snapchat (I was high lmao). The next day i asked my friend for her @ and then i requested to follow her. its been two days since then and she still hasnt accepted my follow request. I feel like girls are on instagram a lot so this seemed kinda weird to me. Anyone know what i should do, and how i could dm her if she does eventually accept it?

I have a crush on a guy, and I'm totally willing to ask him on a date. I'm nervous, but still down to ask him face to face. Problem is, I would love to ask him to Prom (middle of March) in February. A months notice to a formal dance is good, right? The problem is that I'm scared he will somehow end up in a relationship between now and when I will ask. Is there something I should do, or just be patient and keep waiting? Submitted January 19, 2020 at 12:21AM I have a crush on a guy, and I'm totally willing to ask him on a date.

I recently said now much I hate online dating apps but after seeing some comments here I decided to give it a try. 1 week swiping and I matched with 5 girls (I'm a straight male BTW). I noticed a great majority are just putting their Instagram usernames to gain followers. Which tells me they sign up just to increase their popularity rather than seeking new connections. Ok here comes the weird part. I thought it was quite strange to have very few matches and they are not even very communicative, and that got to my nerve so I decided to check my competition and I turn my search to "men". After all, if I'm getting this awful experience it's most likely because there are hotter and more interesting guys out there right? well, not exactly that... 2 hours have past and I see the little tinder gold icon flashing with 43 men who swiped left plus 2 super like notifications WTF! Alright, if gay guys think I am attractive I'm pretty sure women think the same way? Why th

So long story short I met a guy on bumble we have been in the talking stage for about 6 months long distance. Our relationship was mostly through seeing each other once every two months in person and then talking on FaceTime/texting every day. Anyways I don’t want to give too much away but he recently went on vacation and where he went there was a 6 hour time zone difference. However he still kept in touch with me everyday on his vacation but I noticed his vibe was starting to change once he got there. Then fast forward his vacation ended lasted and he has started to become distant. I understand that he probably has jet-lag and he’s adjusting back to our time zone and he’s also a week behind in school. However now he’s starting to take a day to respond to my texts when he usually would only take minutes to hours. He doesn’t call me on the phone anymore, and his texts are dry and he calls me by my actual name now instead of the nickname he gave me. Somehow he always has an excuse for h

F/28 Me and my bf are in LDR. In our relationship we share everything financially. If we do a holiday we split the costs of flights, trains or hotels and meals etc. Its pretty chill between us. My boyfriend is coming to town next week, also his home town. I had a rough few months with work and I was broke so I came to stay with his family for past few months until I stand up on my feet. Now that he is coming back I wanted to get a bnb for night stay so we could get some privacy. As with family around its impossible to get any quite moments. My good friend manages an airbnb and I asked her to reserve for the night. She said she can make a discount I tried to negotiate that my budget was low but then I agreed to pay what she offered. We havent finalized anything yet. My initial plan was to get the place and ask him to meet me there and decorate with candles and stuff and get some wine so we could be alone together for the night and have a date. And I wanted to do a little surprise wit

Well I think I've got that point in my life where I realize I'm probably going to be single for the rest of my life. Submitted January 19, 2020 at 12:13AM Well I think I've got that point in my life where I realize I'm probably going to be single for the rest of my life.

I just never really know when, because it would be weird if I would start a conversation about different sexualities out of the blue. I have never spoken about my sexuality and when there would be questions about my love life at family gatherings my cousin would kind of jump in and say things like “She doesn’t need a relationship to grow up. She’s growing up just fine as a single, am I right?”, when he saw how uncomfortable those questions were making me. I guess next time someone says something about “I can’t wait for the day you are married and have kids” I’m just gonna gently drop the bomb and see if hell breaks lose 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 I’m guessing my mom is gonna be supportive and will try to understand as much about asexuality as possible. Idk about the rest of my small family though. January 19, 2020 at 12:01AM

Awesome idea. Make sure to tape up the sides to not get paint on any other areas. January 18, 2020 at 11:59PM

I only judged your character now, so it wouldn't have been twice and there's no reason for you to ignore the points I made in my first reply. It would only be ad hominem if I were arguing with you about something else and if your character was not directly connected to the conclusion. At that point, I was just criticizing your character, which if you do not know is not a fallacy. I was not using your character to prove some other point or deny any of yours. My point was the very characterization I was making. You make the assumption that I misjudged you without any justification or defense. January 18, 2020 at 11:59PM

For some reason my husband is obsessed with his zodiac in the Chinese calendar. ( I’m chinese, he’s white, no idea why he’s so fixated on this but whatever) after careful explaining to him, I told him that the Chinese calendar does not follow the Roman calendar but has a different New Year’s Day. So after about an hour of him being on the internet trying to line up his birthday to the Chinese calendar, he proudly tells me that his Bday falls on the first day of CNY and that he’s a horse! Great, except that I stupidly told him that, if it’s on the exact 1st CNY, he’s probably a half breed. As in half horse and half snake (zodiac before horse) So he went to work, sitting in front of the TV with his dog, drawing pictures of what he thinks is half horse/half snake variations and asking me which one best suits him. The pics are hideous and and includes, a snake with horse legs, a snake with a horse head slithering around the ground, a horse body with snake head and tail, a front half hor
