As a man who has been on both sides of the coin… bear with me cause this is a long read but it has relevance I promise.  I’ve been the anxious wreck begging and pleading. Saying stuff like “you don’t…

You’ve seen this woman two times, haven’t kissed or even dated, and you’re calling her avoidant for simply not wanting to entertain a conversation about having kids with you?

"The FA in me wanted to run wild and send a dramatic text, but I stopped myself. I reminded myself this was protest behavior." Wtf?! You had never even gone on a date with this woman but when she sho…

Yes that could be a good interpretation of it! It could also be that maybe this woman in the example had a good story about relationships in general but just not her current partner for whatever reaso…

I've been dating this woman for 3 months, fantastic, love her. The honeymoon period ended pretty abruptly when she suddenly "stopped feeling it". A couple days, therapy sessions, and some very long co…

About a year ago, we got new seasonal hires at my job. One of them ended up being this woman. I usually chitchat with new hires if they have questions regarding the job and that’s about it. I would ch…

Great for you to have this realization! It isn't easy! I sat on my decision the evening before ending it for many hours, cycling through the data and seeking support. It will be unfamiliar at first wh…

I've gotta ask: Is it normal for someone with an advoident attachment style to have an issue with taking accountability and placing the blame onto others for their mistakes? I knew this woman for 9 ye…

If you are pushing people away then I guess I am too 😂🤪. People at work ask me stuff about my personal life but we haven't established a relationship where I feel comfortable in telling them. Is thi…

Well, so I'm pretty new to dating, was with my x-wife for nearly 20 years with kids and decided to try dating after some time alone. Never dated before her either, so eventhough im almost 40 I've got …

Ngl I admire her transparency. “You’re a bit further back in line so she’ll lyk” Her friend is actively dating, and she’s being honest by telling you. I don’t see anything wrong with this If anythin…

Gonna talk to my therapist about this woman today. I still dont understand why someone would act so flirty/playful with me and also be wearing a wedding/engagement ring. (I dont know if theres a disti…

I'm sorry, but I don't think it's inherently horrible. It's certainly confusing or annoying when you're interested in someone and trying to interpret their behavior, though. I don't quite remember yo…

In a relationship??? Did he forget or something? “There’s something important I need to tell this woman. Can’t for the life of me think what it is…”

Any advice on how to deal with a dating partner that is more attached than you are? Been seeing this woman for 3 weeks and she’s wayyy more into me than I’m into her. I want to break it off because of…

By existing in the world as an adult you need to be capable of having adult conversations, like finding out you’re being cheated on. It is the obligation of the rest of humanity to be honest and decen…

There has been an ongoing flirtation with a guy who I saw a few times before I moved at the end of the year. Since I relocated, I've enjoyed these continued conversations, including very spicy ones, a…

Do not reach out! This woman is not self sufficient and it doesn’t appear that she wants to be. She relies on her parents and lives a carefree life. Are you looking for a dependent? ?

Then stop messing this woman around.

OP, it’s your friend’s responsibility to set the boundary with you in regard to his relationship with the other woman. If the girlfriend is uncomfortable, that’s between him and her. She voiced her op…

There's this woman at my job that I've been wanting to talk to for a while, but we mostly worked different shifts, so I didn't see her a whole lot. She's kind, polite, and had such a cute smile and di…

Stop thinking about hypotheticals and just get the facts, lol. At least in regards to him and her so you can move on or refocus if they're dating. You don't want to sabotage your opportunity to conne…

Girl…..the right person will not have you twisting yourself in knots like this. This woman is not that person.

this woman was the worst fucking thing to happen to me. She listened, she was enthusiatic about getting to know me, put an effort into getting conversation flowing, was excited about me as I was abou…

I used to work abroad with this woman who would always say how much she preferred the country she had lived in before. Someone I knew also knew her there and said she used to complain a lot about it w…

I think the main thing is to separate the approach and desired outcomes in your mind. You are not trying share your life with this woman, you are just trying to have a conversation. So, you had …

This hits hard. I've been single for a few years and I'm honestly fine. Recently I went out and this woman asked me to dance and actually spent time with me. Yup, I realised I've missed that sort of i…

Realize how low the stakes of failing are. Approach anxiety is mostly fear of failure, but even if crash and burn, you're never going to see this woman again. The worst consequence is maybe you get so…

Agreed, because you get a limited number of matches right? I would wonder if she just was behind because of the loss, so she sent what she had. Has this woman already agreed to go out with you?  I d…

I had an absolutely amazing date on Monday and haven't stopped thinking about this woman since then. We've been chatting on the app for almost two weeks now. A few questions because I'm absolutely ter…

Also did you cover the bases of setting up another date with this woman? Has she indicated she wants to see you again?

You aren’t going to glean anything that really helps here because we’re just guessing. Pursuing a relationship is ultimately a matter of wanting it, and she didn’t for whatever reason. You ever kinda …

There's been some connections but either they call it off or I do for various reasons. My approach right now is I'll continue dating this woman until a) I decide I can't wait anymore 2) she tells me t…

Started talking to this woman the other day. Because of our schedules we aren't able to go out for a couple weeks. How often are y'all talking to someone in a situation like this?

True about possible implications on OP. I don’t care about this woman who is fine to knowingly sleep with a married man. Hope they both get fired so at least the wife gets some justice from the univer…

You are paralyzed. I could relate in my late 30s. You need to stop telling yourself that you are sparing this woman pain. There is a special place for men who waste a woman’s reproductive years. It …

I'll preface my comment with a remark that I've never in my life experienced this "spark" and my choice of partners has always been conscious and decision-based to the point that I can pinpoint the ex…

It is a great way to meet people! And screen people. Since you typically don’t meet another persons kids until later in the dating relationship, watching them interact with the kiddos in organic envir…

Personally I think you pushed too hard too fast for this woman. I am a woman also so I know the psychology . She already told you that she didn’t want to get serious with you “because of long distance…

So the last 5 months I've been thinking a ton about relationships and what I was looking for and it's funny because I've learned more about my dating preferences in meeting and dating this woman who s…

This woman does not dress to impress for daily life, she dresses for comfort. She may also be aligned with a different style profile than you prefer. You can decide if that’s important to you or not. …

How old is this woman? Sounds like mid-20s, maybe? The "hamper-girl" Gen Z style is very common, and they are extra curated when it comes to photos of themselves online. This doesn't seem that shocki…

Your "need for security" will never be met with this woman. She has clearly already checked out of the relationship and hasn't had the courage or maybe interest to mention it to you yet. Sorry.

>It all ended through texting messages. We’ve been in no contact since. Bro, let me be frank. Let this be the lowest point in your life. Work on yourself and forget about this woman. It's all upwards…

Thank you. I think the hardest part right now is accepting that something I believed in for so long is actually over. I spent years loving this woman and building a life with her, and even now I still…

Nmom has a history of gifting me odd and unthoughtful gifts, but what she sent me and my husband just months before I went NC takes the cake. A small sleeve of ranch corn nuts (no, I am not a crazy fa…
