How to gain interest?

How do I (22M) put myself out there? I feel absolutely invisible. Can’t remember the last time anyone has shown any clear interest in me. I’ve had terrible luck with dating apps.

Putting the ball in her court

Hi everyone, sorry to bother you all, I just wanted some advice on this girl I met. So when I first asked her to meet up on a Saturday, she said she might not because of studies and catching up on them, so she said she will let me know during the week if she can or can't. So a week passes since I asked her, and she still hasn't said anything ( we were still chatting to each other ) so I asked her if she could make it on Saturday, and she says no she's still busy, so I asked maybe the next week Saturday, but she said she still doesn't think she can. So I said, "That's alright I'm very flexible with time so im usually available, so when you have free time maybe, then you can message me, and we can get coffee ". Was this wrong of me to do, am I putting needless pressure on her? I just thought that would be more practical considering her workload, and she can decide whenever without me bothering every time.

Am I likely to be successful in love if I have ADHD?

It happened again. I (27F) met someone who I really liked and enjoyed spending time with all for it to fall about largely because of issues related to my ADHD. For those who don't know, a lot of people with ADHD tend to live in extremes, either they love something or couldn't be bothered with it, which often I feel like applies to my feelings for other people. So my feelings tend to be really strong while the other person is at a more moderate level with their feelings. I also tend to get bored easily and constantly want to be doing new things and don't want to stay at home very much, where often nuerotypical folks I've dated have a more set routine, a shorter list of activities they enjoy, and want to spend a good amount of time at home. I also get easily bored sexually which has become a big issue in the past. These issues often create a lot of tension over time between myself and the other person because there's an imbalance. And as much as I've gotten bett

What’s up with this guy?

I’ve been friends with this guy for 2 years. Just recently we’ve started flirting, talking sexual etc. this has been going on for a couple of months, but nothing ever happens. Last week I asked him if we were ever going to “do anything for real, or just talk sexually” and he said he would come over the next day. The next day comes and he made an excuse that he was sick so he could not come. I am literally so confused. Why does he flirt, call me hot, tell me he likes my body, that he wants me and to kiss me and then doesn’t actually make a move in person? I haven’t talked to him about it, because I don’t want things to be weird between us, but I am so lost on what the issue is and why he keeps teasing me.

How to Date?

I’m 35 f, and I have never been a relationship before. Went out with friends (10 years ago)/ online date (this year) few times, and that’s all. I think my look is a bit below average and super introverted. Also, lack of social clues on top of that. Have been trying online dating since January. I only have the capacity to chat with one people at a time, which doing no good for my mental health. And for the lack of experience, I am always overthinking everything whenever I start to chat with someone, and I get attached super easily after few days. But that’s usually the cutoff days for the other party shows withdrawals. Before this year, not really thought about dating/ marriage in general, and I was kind of ok? But since January, I have been crying a lot. I think my emotional maturity is very low. I’m doing my Ph.D. right now, so part of me thinks that I really should focus on my career and acknowledging that not everyone will be able to find someone. Hope my post makes sense, and I
