Who messed up?

I (28m) was supposed to meet a (26f) for a first date. We matched on an app. We set the date yesterday and told her I was excited. I was at work and it was getting busy so I tried wrapping up the conversation by saying “I have a long day ahead of me. I bet you do too so have a good day!” She replied “ I have a long but slow day but thank you. You too!” I thought that was the end of the conversation.

As I was getting ready tonight I decided to send her a text saying hey I’m on my way she you soon. She replies I’m so sorry I though since I didn’t hear from you we weren’t going anymore. So I made last minute dinner plans with a friend.

I told her what I thought my side was. She explained that she felt like it wasn’t a good sign that I didn’t keep talking to her and felt ghosted. I told her I’m definitely interested and that I’m sorry she felt ghosted. She then says we’ll to be honest, this is the first time I’ve used an app and another guy messaged me around the same time as I did and we’ve been talking. I don’t feel comfortable continuing things with both of us at the same time. I’m really sorry. I said I gotcha. Well I’m sorry you felt like I ghosted you. Don’t believe in ghosting hahah. Honestly I was excited to see you and was hoping we’d hit it off

I’m thinking a couple things. If she wasn’t sure then why didn’t she just text me? Double text I guess? Just being nice and blowing me off? Or I messed up? Literally made plans yesterday and figured we’d save the real conversation for the date

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
