Yes. I did not feel ready nor was I in a good place to be with him at the time. The timing was really bad and I had let him go. If I tried to keep it going it would have been selfish of me because I would have been nonexistent in that relationship.
Only once. She asked me why and when I told her she looked at me and said that she felt the same way about me. Later on we dated after both of us had seen some other people. But in the end we just ended up friends.
I used to think that way but I've grown up since then so I don't cut myself short anymore unless they are already with someone, in which case I'll wait.
No, I have never done that. I feel like it is just an excuse to somehow soften the blow when rejecting someone.
Is it more of a diss than to straight up reject the dude?
Why would I ever feel like I didn't deserve someone to the point of dumping them? Just seems idiotic to me.
I was rejected for being better which is in evey aspect in theory but I didn't care and told him I'll accept him with his faults as past and start over with higher standards. He became a better version of himself and we are still together.
if i reject you it is only because i think that i deserve better then you.
Well said now I agree with that
@bklynbadboy1 thanks man !
@sarahburberryy I had to hit you up cause you said exactly what I was thinking. Why would you think anyone was to good for you dont you want the best
@bklynbadboy1 exactly !
human beings are selfish in the 1st place, we all want the best even when we don't deserve it !
Well said
Yep that's very true.
I think its always up to the other person to decide if you're good enough for them or you tick all the boxes of what they are looking for.
Whether I think I'm good enough for them or not is irrelevant. All I have to consider is... if they are good enough for me. And I just have to make stick by that decision and make peace with it.
@007-Tarzan Fair enough :p
No why would I. Im not perfect but if I love her I wouldn't want anyone with her but me. Plus I've never thought anyone was to good for me.
No, instead i would try to be the best i can be for her and improve constantly
Yeah I straight up told him I was t shit at the time and I’d probably end up using him and I didn’t want to do that I didn’t find him attractive at all. He’s super sweet and we’re still friends.
Yes because in your heart you know you want other shit than what their offering, or your to afraid to tell them what you really want for fear of rejection so you reject them first in your mind to spear them
Hellz no. I only dump girls if I deserve better. If I think they deserve better, then I'll try to be better, but if they deserve better then they're doing something right and I have no reason to reject them.
No, I am confident enough and know that I am worth it.
Nope, but I haven't dated all that many guys. So give it time lol
Yes, and we haven't spoken since. It's better for her that way.
That would be one of the dumbest things I could possibly do if I encountered a really good partner lol.
Only people with low self-esteem or liars say "you deserve better."
1 girl said this to me once,... then after all of that, she just came very bluntly right out & said "There's no feeling". Yep, such as my pathetic luck.
That is ofttimes just an excuse people make for not wanting to give the relationship serious effort.
No. I'm no rare catch, but my self-esteem never sank to that level.
No that's just a silly excuse and means that you are not willing to put effort in the relationship so you say they can get something better. That it is complety BS is obvious
