So, I met a nice lady on Match about one month ago. We messaged for the first week or so, then decided to meet in person. Communication is a bit of a challenge, as English is her second language, so we try to muddle through with the help of Translate, lol. She was fairly guarded at the start of our first date, then by the end, had warmed considerably, and we ended the date with a hug. We discovered many common interests and beliefs. I noticed that she would often find a reason to touch my arm or shoulder as we walked. I reciprocated, of course. Good sign, right? As such, we made plans to meet again the next week. By the end of this date, I felt that we were starting to like each other (well, perhaps me, more than her). We had dinner, after which her best friend 'coincidentally' happened to drop by the restaurant while in the neighbourhood. She was a very nice person, we had a pleasant chat, and I bought dinner for the three of us. I seemed to meet the friend's approval, ...

Me (31m) and 29f have gone out a couple times. I really like her and she says she likes me, and she says she wants to meet up again soon.. ​ But we almost never have a back and forth conversation in text. Instead she will respond maybe twice a day, spaced many hours apart. And it's usually with like 3 side conversations going at once. It's very hard to sort out. The only time we had an back and forth conversation via text is a night she was out with a friend drinking. Thing is we can talk non stop for hours in person. ​ Every other girl I've "successfully" dated there has been more discussion via text. Can't tell if it's a lack of interest, or she just doesn't text like that often. I understand people get busy, and I'm probably over thinking, but I'm wondering what everyone else experiences with their text patterns. I hate text games but it's hard not to analyze what it means early on. She texted me earlier today that she would be watc...

The effort I have to put forth to even try and get people to recognize that I'm alive and human isn't worth the results I get from it. I'm giving up on life, sex, relationships, people in general really. I don't see any point in trying anymore.

I have never been in a relationship or hooked up before and Im about to be 27. Most women I did go on dates with walked all over me, lied to me, and made me their back up guy. The woman I cared about the most ended up dating a guy I trusted and considered a friend for a few years and it destroyed any confidence or hope I could ever have. Its been a few years since then and I havent been on a date in a couple of years. She was someone I thought it would work out with and she was attractive but there were a lot of red flags and she would go back and forth with wanting to keep seeing me but never saying why. I will never be good enough for her, or be half the guy he is,or ever have their experiences, or ever be with someone like her. My life is all downhill from here, I can never have a real relationship, fun, experiences, or get to date around. Dating apps never worked for me, I cant meet women at all, I never got to have the college experience, never got to date attractive women and n...
