oh he can find two relationships just ask him what the secret isWow just when I thought Iโd seen it all
That really sucks This is just such a dick move by him, itโs so rude. People are so tit. Iโve been through similar and definitely attributed it to being something wrong with me, but when youโre not the one emotionally involved yourself itโs so clear that this says so much about him and nothing about you (sounds like youโve never even met before!? So how could it be you). Also on the plus side heโs shown you his true colours very early on, someone who would do this is just so disrespectful and not someone youโd want to date.Get ready for the next installment of my dating disasters.
So I was feeling a bit down this week and when the goodlooking guy cancelled our date tonight that dampened my spirits even more.
I didnt want to sit in alone this weekend as I knew it wouldn't help my mood. So... A guy I have been talking to on and off on Bumble asked if I would like to go on a date today. I have said no to him in the past but I decided to agree seeing as I didn't want to be on my own.
He lives an hour away but I agreed to go to his town as there would be more to do plus I was going to treat it as a day out and look around shops. So he was messaged me this morning to say he was excited blah blah. He then messaged to say he was called in to work but give me a time and place to meet him.
I got there and guess what.... He never showed up. He eventually messaged an hour later (I was on my way home) to say he was sorry and he got caught up at work.
It was the first time I was ever stood up, I felt awful.
It's going from bad to worse for me. Maybe there is something awful wrong with me.
Did the meaning of the word "committed" change while we were all asleep?Wow just when I thought Iโd seen it all
After a bad break-up I rescued a cute timid cat who had a really bad start in life and we bonded and got more confident together and both our lives changed.Miserable me again. Ugh I just wanna stop feeling crap. Will probably cry the whole drive home from my friends but my eyes are a mess already and I got too drunk and regret that too
I've already got a rescue cat lol he's crazyAfter a bad break-up I rescued a cute timid cat who had a really bad start in life and we bonded and got more confident together and both our lives changed.
She still wakes me up every morning for a cuddle - unless there is a "visitor" staying overnight - and I am so happy to have her.
It gets better.Miserable me again. Ugh I just wanna stop feeling crap. Will probably cry the whole drive home from my friends but my eyes are a mess already and I got too drunk and regret that too
That's such awful behaviour, I'm so sorry. There was no excuse for him not to message you to say he thinks work will overrun. If he was called into work he should have rearranged for another day.Get ready for the next installment of my dating disasters.

My friend said she thinks it was just the final straw as I never really grieved Mum etc as I had so much to do after including moving house & he knew all of what I'd been through too which makes it worse. I wish I had her here now I still feel proper tit and I'm home nowIt gets better.
When I split from my ex I was a mess for a few days. Time is a healer, and it'll be okay even if it doesn't feel like it right now
Get some pen and paper out and write down every single thing you are feeling. Have a big cry then destroy the paper. Honestly, you will feel a little bit better after it.Miserable me again.

Ah this is brilliant. I hope this ends up being a positive experience for you. We need some good stories on this threadI haven't really been dating that much this month. Matched with a few people on the dating apps but tbh no one I was super keen on and I would rather go out with friends for drinks.
Last night I was out with a few friends and got talking to someone. He was so engaging and funny and we had loads in common. I like that he's a sort of everyday South London guy but also collects coins like he was telling me about a coin he found near the Thames that was from the 17th Century . He walked me home and we kissed and swapped numbers. He text me after to say he really enjoyed meeting me and that he'll take me out somewhere nice next time.
Totally unexpected to meet someone yesterday as I wasn't looking but we'll see how it goes! Feels a bit different to meeting someone through an app as we've got the whole "meeting each other in person for the first time" bit out of the way before swapping numbers etc. Less stressing over whether he's going to text me or not.
I'll fly overSo when we all meeting up then! Lol London suits me
Haha thank you. I shall keep you posted .Ah this is brilliant. I hope this ends up being a positive experience for you. We need some good stories on this thread
Yes I am up for that!So when we all meeting up then! Lol London suits me
I hope it goes well. I'm similar to you in the 10 years thing and nothing solid in that time (but I did have the period with Mum where I was her carer and put life on hold to spend all my time with her as knew was limited!)Haha thank you. I shall keep you posted .
I was last in a long term relationship when I was 22 and I'm 32 now. I've been dating solidly (aside from when there were lockdowns etc) for ten years and aside from a few short relationships lasting a couple of months here and there I've been single for pretty much all the rest of the time.
I still have hope there is someone out there for me
Yes I am up for that!
You better had!I'll fly over
Modern dating feeds all the insecurities we have about ourselves, how we've been treated in the past and how the world sees us. It's a mean cycle of hope and loss, even if it's a guy you went out with only a few times. When you're already feeling a loss it's especially unkind because you have that in your pocket and society telling you to just get out there and give it a whirl...and then you do and it's tit. I find men's interest to be so fragile and fleeting, it's all going great guns one minute and then boom, they're not into you anymore, and you're left with all the stuff they told you/promised you to sift through that will never make any sense because it doesn't make any sense. Very often they don't know what they want either, so our feelings can be collateral damage while they stomp about trying to figure out what they're looking for and trample over some of us in the process. With the right guy it really will feel right, and you won't be on the hook constantly wondering if you did something wrong etc. or trying to interpret off behaviour. Ultimately you knew with this one, deep down, what he was up to and you should give yourself some kudos for spotting the flags that were there, especially when he encouraged you to ignore them with his words and you did for a moment. You did nothing wrong.My friend said she thinks it was just the final straw as I never really grieved Mum etc as I had so much to do after including moving house & he knew all of what I'd been through too which makes it worse. I wish I had her here now I still feel proper tit and I'm home now
Thank you! I know how you feel from your previous posts. Sometimes I've been out with friends and their partners and have been the only single one, and it's the little things like when they go home they all get in a taxi together and I walk home by myself. It's those things and having something to share with someone else that I miss the most.I hope it goes well. I'm similar to you in the 10 years thing and nothing solid in that time (but I did have the period with Mum where I was her carer and put life on hold to spend all my time with her as knew was limited!)
Would be fab to all meet up. Have real names and faces lol
You better had!
