kmtthat – completely understand. I was used to being the one broken up with until last year I was dating a super nice guy last spring, very briefly, and he was so into me and he was such a great guy – but I just wasn’t into it at all. And I kept going on dates thinking I would get more into it and really start to like him, but I didn’t. And I broke it off with him and he was so disappointed. And I cried a lot after that phone call too. It sucks.
I’m sorry it made you so upset kmtthat – it’s probably for the best in the long run. I know that doesn’t make it feel any better though.
What do they say? Dating is hard and it sucks until it isn’t hard and it doesn’t suck.
We just wish it wasn’t so hard and didn’t suck so much in the mean time.
@kmtthat it’s okay to know your limitations, in my opinion. And if dating him would just make your anxiety about those things unbearable, that’s okay. If you think you might be able to handle it, you could always give it some time.
But don’t feel bad for knowing something would make you miserable even if he is a nice guy. It IS a legitimate health risk, even if it’s a very small risk.
@courtney89 I always offer and I always make sure I have the money to pay for my share – whether it be cash or my debit card. If they refuse the offer, that’s okay, at least you offered. On my date last night I had the cash to pay for mine but he insisted on paying, so I let him.
Have fun on your date!
me too @ktfran! I really almost cancelled the first date last week and I’m so glad I didn’t! This guy is really cool and I’m glad I gave him a chance. We even ran into two friends of his when we went across the street to a bar to get a drink after dinner and they were super cool too. It was really fun.
@Copa I’ve seen that on Tinder but I haven’t tried it. Honestly it kinda creeps me out lol. Any idea what you’ll do for your date?
I had a date last night that went really well! I got to try that restaurant I’ve been wanting to try and the company (the date) was excellent! Planning a third date soon!
@stone that’s exciting! I understand your hesitation but I’m sure it feels good that he’s “come around” so to speak!
And yes, crossfit prom is going to be fun I can already tell. I saw pictures from the photo booth they had last year and it just looks like they had so much fun. My crossfit accountability buddy even wants to go to goodwill and buy an old wedding dress or hideous bridesmaid dress to wear and I can’t wait to see what she finds. Plus I pay them a small fortune each month so I’m going to enjoy free food they are providing for me :).
And the restaurant is hard to describe? There’s 2 restaurants owned by the same family and one is more upscale gastropub type, and this one is supposed to be a slightly more casual version (downtown near the colleges) that specializes in tacos and tortas. The menu had me salivating so I can’t wait to check it out because the sister restaurant has awesome food!
@kare that’s what I was assuming it was, but I’ve been wrong when assuming before! And yes, if that’s new, I could see why letting that heal a bit first would be a good idea (ouchie)
As for the crush, well, I still have it! lol. We’ve talked a little more this past week but I’m not pushing to reschedule the painting date, I’m already doing most of the work, so it’s his turn. It’s on him to reschedule. So in the meantime, dinner with the new guy tomorrow and possibly another date Saturday with the guy I went on the pizza and brewery date two weeks ago. Keeping the options open!
@ktfran You are adorable and gross and I love it 🙂
@Cleo – I get it and I don’t. I briefly tried to have a FWB thing going with an ex (yeah I know, poor judgement but it was fun) and we both agreed that if the one of us became interested in or started dating someone else – no more benefits.
It was disrespectful to flirt in front of you but I bet he just doesn’t get it. And I kind of understand the monogamy thing because we were trying to do the same thing – have sex with someone without being attached and just have fun – but only with each other and not with someone else in the picture. I think FWBs are hard to navigate if you’ve never done it. It was a very short lived thing for us.
@kare I’m afraid to google Christina piercing on my work computer so can you whisper in my ear what that is?Also, second date tomorrow date with the guy I had a date with last week. And he picked a restaurant I’ve been wanting to try for a long time, so I think it will be fun!
@lucia_la I think it will be fun! They are having it catered and I think we bring any alcoholic drinks we want because clearly a gym doesn’t have a liquor license. I will probably ask the firefighter to be my date because we’ve hung out the most and always have fun together and asking him to come may give me the opportunity to pick his brain a little and see what’s going on in there.
And I have found it to be motivating! I’m one of the bigger girls at the gym (and I’m average sized, so if that tells you anything) so I want to look my best next to the crossfit queens 🙂
I’m so sorry MissDre. I’m just so sorry it turned out this way.
