@Hfantods, I think I can understand where you’re coming from a little. I have gone out with a couple of men who, from the get go, give me lots of compliments and while I’m flattered, part of me feels a little uneasy. Mainly because I feel like they don’t know me yet, I’m still feeling things out, and they are (possibly) moving way too fast for me. In my experience, it’s the guys who, after one date, tell me I’m amazing, so beautiful, special, etc etc and it makes me feel a little weird. I think it’s just me and what I’m comfortable with.

Yeah, it’s a bit of a mix of not feeling comfortable with compliments and then also moving too quickly kind of thing. That said, my third date with Tinder Finance Guy went pretty well today and I’m feeling more comfortable with him. I went over to his place in the morning and he made us breakfast including a lot of cut fruit/fruit arrangement, which was kind of impressive. Then we went to a street festival.

Later on he asked if I wanted to continue to hang out and I said yeah and he said he did too, so things seem to be progressing! We haven’t had a night time date and physically there’s not much yet. I do want to take things slowly but I guess that’s the next step.

Yeah, girl!!

Get it veritek! But holy shit 7 times, I would die.

I need to tell the guy I’ve been seeing that we should just be friends, but I had a shitty day yesterday (long story short my brother hasn’t been home in almost 2 weeks and is probabaly using again) and hung out with him. It feels like we’re just friends when we hang out, but then we did some more than friendly things once we were at his place. I might negotiate a FWB type thing, as long as it doesn’t interfere with me going out on real dates. I have a shitty work week coming up (daily meetings until we finish a project 30 days ahead of schedule!), so I doubt I’ll have time to do anything with anyone.

And ktfran, that’s exciting if he’s ready to let work people know! I’m so glad people are having fun dates!
