Went on a bunch of really great dates with this guy, felt like I really connected to him. We never kissed or anything (lame) but we had a really deep emotional connection, and would sometimes just stare into each others eyes for long periods of time. He talked about wanting to keep me around, wanting me to meet his best friend, wanting to take me to his family’s camp, etc. After about a month of us consistently talking over the phone and going on at least 3 dates a week (and we labeled them dates too! He was a perfect gentleman, and would immediately pay without any awkwardness or me having to ask him to). I asked him what he was looking for, because I can’t do casual. He said he couldn’t see himself in a relationship right now, and that he was sorry. I don’t hold any bad blood against him, although I do feel a little led on.
Obviously, something could have happened in his life that deterred him from me, or something could have happened on one of our dates/in a convo that gave him the ick. But let’s pretend (because this is a problem that many of my female friends have, not just me) that’s not the case, and that he really was
just not looking for a relationship at this time.
What’s the point? I personally don’t go on dates if I don’t see romantic potential, but maybe I approach dating in a different way than others. Is this a common thing that people do?
