i am still interested in the boy who rejected me (30 f) and (24 m). But I should go no contact

I like him because he is smart and says really extraordinary things. Does this mean I don't respect myself? Submitted July 11, 2022 at 11:53PM I like him because he is smart and says really extraordinary things.Does this mean I don't respect myself?

How do you cope with being ghosted?

I've been going on dating apps dates for three months now, on and off. Half of the guys I've dated were nice, even though I didn't see them as "boyfriend" material but they ghosted me after a few dates or told me they were not ready for a relationship. For one of them, we did kiss and he seemed super into me and then just blew me off. Now I met this guy, saw each other twice in a week, he said he had a great time!! Was a gentlemen, and now he's not replying to me so I know he's probably gonna ghost me again. He didn't even try to kiss me so it's not like he's looking for sex. But he did tell me I was cute and was flirting so it's contradictory. And I feel like I'm entering a loop. A few good dates go by, I get good feedback, they're NOT active on Bumble, but they drift away or ghost. And it's not like I'm completely invested but it does feel shitty because I genuinely liked them and believed them everything was going wel...

I might be going on my first date in years soon and am very nervous m29

I have been a shut in for the past few years but even before that it has been very long since I have dated. I recently decided I want to date and downloaded tinder but havent had much success. Recently a friend of a family member saw a video with me in it and said I was cute and she wanted to go out with me. This came out of the blue and is great news to me but also makes me extremely nervous. I dont have a social life outside of work and can be shy. Any advice?

Bf has toenail fungus and I don’t know how to tell him it really turns me off

So my bf has toenail fungus and it’s pretty bad. He never mentioned it to me but he walks around barefoot and it really turns me off. I have been putting up with it and tried to subtly hint that he needs to do something about his feet but he seems to brush it off. I really want to say it to him that he needs to do something about his feet but I don’t know how to. I am huge on hygiene so this is very important to me but I also love him and I don’t know how to say it to him without hurting him. Any advice?

Have you ever stayed friends with an ex and then started dating them again?

Trying to figure out if I want to stay friends with an ex. I'm leaning towards no until I get over them because I know it would be painful for me. On the other hand, I want him to stay in my life. I don't bear animosity towards him. But if I'm completely honest, I also want him back. We broke up because he's still a bit immature and has commitment issues, but if he ever decides to commit, I want that person to be me. I'm not proud of that, but that's the truth. People on Reddit are telling me over and over again that staying "friends" is a no-go because that person is more likely to feel secure about you and then move on, whereas no-contact is more likely to make that person miss you.
