It's good you pursued him, went on a couple of dates and got to see some other aspects of him. Unfortunately this seems to be a case of "all that glitters isn't gold". That's ok, now you can move forward in peace knowing you gave it a shot.

If he had expressed interest in you, would you have continued seeing him despite the many incompatibilities you discovered? I am wondering why his seeming lack of romantic interest tops the list here rather than the other red flags. Anyway, take this as a lesson moving forward: don't get too enamoured by vague first impressions when you don't know the person. 3

Hardly smiles or laughs, sees the world through a negative lens. Looks down on people who don’t have good jobs/wages and treats them dismissively. Huh? Yet you are not seeing him again because he's "not that into you"? The guy sounds like a sociopath! 3

Author babybrowns Posted August 28, 2023 Author Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) That’s not it at all- I did not say that that’s the main reason I wasn’t seeing him again. Heck he even asked me out on a third date and I declined it, mainly because of our differences rather than his apparent lack of interest- it’s what I said on this thread when I first updated it a couple of days ago with my decision to not proceed. I’m just saying that I also feel he was after a companion rather than a romantic partner anyway, so from no angle was this an appealing prospect for me to pursue. Edited August 28, 2023 by babybrowns
