I’m feeling a little worried that we’re having an off phase, we’ve both had a lot going on recently and we seem ok when we talk but there’s a feeling of distance there for me and I miss feeling as close to him. I’m also a bit worried that I’ve sabotaged it by telling him I’ve had moments of not being sure if I wanted to keep this going.. I’m hoping seeing him on Tuesday will help.

I think you’re maybe sending him major mixed messages if you’ve said that you’re not sure about the situation but also said you love him..?

Blahhh, I guess I am.

I’m gonna leave this thread and enjoy the summer holidays with my daughter, it’s not for an overthinker 😅 Best of luck to you all

Thank you everyone 💕
Oh that really really sucks :( I think when you have a few in a row that aren’t good or don’t go anywhere it can be really hard. Sometimes I take a break at that point, hide my profile and try to do other things. But I know it’s not that simple because then you can feel even more lonely. Can also relate to the birthday thing. I’ve been mostly single for the last 6 years, other than two 6 month relationships, and my birthday is a huge trigger for me.
I've paused my profile on the apps I'm just going to focus on myself and enjoy the summer with friends. Lockdown made me realise I'm ok being alone, I like doing things on my own but it's just all those milestones in the year that tends to make me feel lonely. It's tough isn't it - it would be nice to have someone to share those special events with.

They're so difficult. Did you tell him that you don't think you're overly compatible after the date?
I find so many dates are tough to get through, but then you find one that makes it worthwhile!
He hasn't messaged me since Thursday evening, he sent a reaction to something I posted on Insta yesterday but I'm not bothered if I don't hear from him. If anything it would be better because I don't have to have the 'didn't feel a connection' convo with him 😅

Having a few swipes on Hinge - do we reckon this is his own wedding photo or he just hasn’t twigged how much it looks like it is?!

Got a sore thumb from swiping left on overweight bearded men, alternating between bald and ginger haired. I don’t mean to sound like a witch but there was just zero effort put in to their profile picture, just candid up shots in work vans or on the couch 😒 come on. Accidentally swiped right on a few profiles I didn’t meant to as well ffs. Closed the app when I seen this

Fair play for wanting a better life but what a Debbie Downer. I need to put some comedy on now because that was depressing.

So like I dunno. Updating after a considerable number of beers. I met a guy that I was really keen on on an impromptu date this evening and I'm just walking home now. We kissed so much I am not sure if I can feel my face any more. Kind of didn't mention it on here as I was really keen but we were only meant to meet in a few weeks so didn't want to get my hopes up. But it was a great date I think.

Hi - mind if I join you? Just started dating after divorce so its all new to me. I'm texting a few men who all sound nice but its all about the chemistry in real life isnt it? I must say that I have found my detective skills to be excellent. One man had his first name and occupation on his profile and from that I have found his LInkedin, address, ex wife etc!! I am in the wrong job.

@HelloStereo what an excellent first date!
