ECarlson Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 I’ve basically learned to not get my hopes up when meeting a new girl. I’ve been rejected so many times in the past that I’ve hadn’t no choice but to create this defense mechanism for myself. I just met someone new, went on a few dates with her, and to my unsurprise, she said she wasn’t feeling a connection. I knew right from the beginning when I met her that this was going to be the most likely outcome. So why do I still feel bad?
basil67 Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Two questions: How do you rate yourself as a conversationalist? This woman who didn't feel a connection with you, did you feel a connection with her? If so, what was it about her which made you want to keep dating her?
Author ECarlson Posted February 24, 2018 Author Posted February 24, 2018 I can carry a conversation just fine once I get going. I could feel a connection. I just felt like I had a lot in common with this girl.
Veronica73 Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 I think you still had a sliver of hope. I mean... if you didn’t have a bit of hope, why would you even bother trying? There’s nothing wrong with that (besides that it can hurt). Especially after a few dates. Lots of people would feel sad. I know I would.
