bolase Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 With my old boss - we went on 3 dates, I always felt a bit awkward, the first drinks were fun, but after that, hard to make conversation...really formal or something, though he's a nice guy. I decided, as we will certainly see each other in our circles, to send him a message saying that I didn't feel like it was the start of a romantic thing to me but it had been fun hanging out. He sent one back saying he was in two minds himself, he always felt awkward and strained but felt it would change over time but guesses not, Now I just feel...I don't know...like I am awkward around people a lot, and it sucks that this happens with guys when I just want to be myself. I recently (before this guy and I dated) met someone online in another city and we've really hit it off. I don't know, just evaluating myself and my approach to dating and hte only person in a year I've felt like I can be myself with and confident around and talkative with, in terms of romantic material, is the online guy. Thankfully we're gonna meet in about 1 month when he visits my city! But still feel a bit shot down by this guy's response
LEEVIT2F8 Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 You shot him down he handled it like a boss... pun intended. LOL Are you just an awkward person? Obviously your very self-conscious. Maybe your more comfortable behind a keyboard or a phone? Is there something physical about yourself your uncomfortable about? How are your in person social skills with non romantic interests?
ChessPieceFace Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 You shot him down then are upset that he agrees. Sounds like an issue with yourself you need to resolve. Like the girl who turned me down who was later mad I said I wasn't that into her after all...
devilish innocent Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 You didn't click with those particular guys. So what? Nobody hits it off with everybody they meet. You also don't need to be the type of person who's great at socializing with a ton of people. You just need to find the right person that you click with. The more you get out there and talk to people, the closer you get to finding that person.
