Does feeling relieved after Tom’s lies mean I’m ready to date again?

[MissSunshine2]

So, I’ve figured out what’s going on with this Tom guy, who’s been lying to me. He’s been making new profiles on a dating app and talking on them to make fun of me for having been interested in him and wanting a future with him.

Tom’s reasons for doing this are because he is from a wealthy, highly educated family and mine are far less so. Tom just finds it funny. My friends are outraged and thinking of colourful descriptions of Tom, but I feel just more relieved that Tom isn’t a foreigner seeking citizenship or some kind of shady criminal, likely to cause me problems. I don’t feel upset anymore. Does that mean that I’m ready to move on and date other men, once I meet someone else who I like?

I closed the dating app and all the others I’ve used. I feel like maybe I’ll try for a fresh start, meeting men in person rather than on dating apps.

Tom isn’t his real name.

I think it sounds like your coming to terms with things. I'm sorry you had to go through that with Tom!

[MissSunshine2]

Thanks 😊

[Bklynbadboy12]

Listen just dump him and move on he's really not worth you time

[MissSunshine2]

I agree. I woke up yesterday feeling indifference towards Tom. My friends says that means I must’ve moved on fully.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Im proud of you. You deserve better

[MissSunshine2]

Thanks 💕

[Bklynbadboy12]

Your welcome

[sage2021]

I gave my opinion about Tom on another question you asked. It's the same opinion.

[MissSunshine2]

I agree and I woke up yesterday, feeling a bland feeling of indifference towards Tom. My friend tells me I must be over him. 😊

[sage2021]

Thank you for the MHO 🙂🧡

[WhitneySnow]

Probably a good idea

[Tomislav7]

I should be getting paid for this defamation and slander 😂😂

[MissSunshine2]

I’m certain it’s not you. It’s not this person’s real name.

[Tomislav7]

This Tom guy im sure is sorry he upset you and would love to have made things right if given the chance. But some bridges unfortunately dont get rebuilt.

[MissSunshine2]

Well, I’m not sure, but I’m relieved that he’s just making harmless jokes. They’re harmless to me, because they don’t upset me anymore. I’m now just curious as to whether that means I’m ready to start dating again.

[MissSunshine2]

You made me laugh though. 😆

[MissSunshine2]

With you, not at you.

[Tomislav7]

what was he saying to u?

[MissSunshine2]

Just subtly mocking me for liking him when he’s rich and I’m poor, from a middle class family, it turns out 😊

[Tomislav7]

he's rich?

[Tomislav7]

why would he mock u for that if he likes u economic status is irrelevant

[MissSunshine2]

Not to him.

[MissSunshine2]

Yes, he’s rich and very educated.

[Tomislav7]

So what now u and girls hate him or?

[MissSunshine2]

No, I don’t hate anyone. I don’t know what to feel.

[Tomislav7]

if you could express to me the best way you can how u would tell him

[MissSunshine2]

Tell him? I don’t know. I hadn’t thought about it. Are you in fact the man that I am talking about?

[Tomislav7]

No im not Australian lol im just saying to tell me how you feel to the best of your ability since u said u dont know exactly how to describe it..

[MissSunshine2]

I feel sort of like I am content to move on and accept that he’s not interested without being upset. I guess that’s it. 😊

[Tomislav7]

Cool.. Ok and if he were interested then how would u feel?

[MissSunshine2]

He’s not, so I’ve made my peace with it.

[MissSunshine2]

I’d be genuinely surprised if he was interested.

[Tomislav7]

Ok then why talk about it? Lol. What are funny things y'all call him? I bet he's a huge fag

[MissSunshine2]

Largely? For something to do, because that’s what’s happened recently and I’m bored.

[MissSunshine2]

I don’t call him anything. 😊

[Zionne]

yeah probably
