Reminded today how my heart was broken

(39M) I was reading a friend's post today on how to support somebody that has depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder. I was that guy. I was dating (F40) that was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. For nine years I went through everything with her. I read books, articles, joined an online group and spoke with friends about her. I absolutely did everything for her because I loved her unconditionally and still she left me. It's been 2 and a half years since we broke up and I was getting over it until this stupid post brought up all the memories. I want to get back into the dating game, but with the amount of work I put into my last relationship I poured everything into it and still lost her. Now I feel like I want to crawl back into my she'll and never leave. What the hell do I do?

Should I lie about my age?

So I meet this girl working at a shop in a mall near me, we hit it off and we’ve been texting for a few days. We exchange instagrams and I’m casually browsing through her posts and realise she is slightly older than me. I’m 22 and she’s 24 which for some girls is a big turn off. For some added context, I’m financially secure for my age with a very good job, car and my own place. Should I lie about my age and tell her I’m 25 or should I be upfront about it? I have lied about my age in the past but after a few dates once my personality comes through and they realise I’m quite mature for my age they don’t mind Submitted August 18, 2021 at 11:45PM So I meet this girl working at a shop in a mall near me, we hit it off and we’ve been texting for a few days.

How to date during pandemic?

Has anyone a working solution for dating during the pandemic? At first I thought Apps like Tinder or Bumble could be a solution but my experience with them is as shit as always. Are there other platforms that work better? I'm a fat european male(27), I know my chances are almost non existent but still.

Fugly

I am Male(19) it feels like I can't talk to girls and whenever I try, they just ignore me or think im joking. It has really killed my confidence in myself and my body. Any suggestions? I just can't find any girls to even talk to anymore. Submitted August 19, 2021 at 12:05AM I am Male(19) it feels like I can't talk to girls and whenever I try, they just ignore me or think im joking.

Too early?

So I have been dating a girl for a month now (been seeing each other for 2 months) and I think im ready to say the big “i love you”. In terms of actual time it feels so early, but in terms of how i feel i almost NEED to say it. We just went on a trip to the city together and spend so much time together. I couldn’t count the amount of dates, but weve done so much in the past 2 months and its been perfect. This trip made me realize how much i truly like her and when im close to her i feel a pulse in my heart. Since the trip and dropping her off at her house ive felt so shakey like i need to tell her. Shes on my mind every second. Basically im just trying to ask if its too early to ask or not Submitted August 19, 2021 at 12:06AM So I have been dating a girl for a month now (been seeing each other for 2 months) and I think im ready to say the big “i love you”.

I [22M] am dating my coworker [19F], but I’m leaving the job soon. How do I keep the momentum going when we aren’t seeing each other regularly?

I started dating my coworker this month and things have been going pretty well. In a week and a half, I’ll be done with the job and starting school while she is cutting her hours and also starting school. We’ll be attending the same college so I’ll have the chance to see her most days, but I’m worried about the momentum slowing down once we aren’t seeing each other. An easy conversation topic is always what happened at work that day, so now we’re losing that. Also, something I’m insecure about is that since she lost most of her time in school to COVID, she’s going to realize that she wants to explore things with classmates and new friends and that’ll kill things for us. We aren’t exclusive because we’ve only been on a couple dates, but I want it to head in that direction. I’m aware there is nothing I can do in this situation other than talk to her about it, but I also don’t want to come off too strong since I’m not sure how into me she is.

HELP! FAST, I need to ask a girl out / get her number within 2 days. how.?

Yesterday I joined a group of students and we had alot of fun. There is a nice girl who smiles at me every time that we have eye contact. I really like that she is also a vegetarian (like me) and she is friendly. So I know her since yesterday and today, I will meet her in the group tomorrow and the day after (which is the last day) What does it mean that she smiles at me so often? How likely does she like me? So I have to ask her out or get her number within 2 days but how? I never asked a girl out in real life.
