Ghosting is far worse than rejecting someone. At least when you reject someone, they know why you no longer want to be with them. Yes, it hurts being rejected, but at least it offers the person... Dating

No. It just gives you closure, so eventually you're able to move on with time. I've confessed my feelings to someone I knew didn't feel the same! But I figured I had nothing to lose. Sure... Relationships

No, in this instance, it sounds like he was just an insecure little boy that couldn't commit. Some people have issues that make them cheaters. That's still NO excuse for his behavior! But... Relationships

Yeah, he's not interested, sorry anon. It sounds like he wasn't feeling it, or lost interest in you. So rather than tell you, he made up an excuse to cut the date early. If he was... Dating

So are you saying those of us that have been cheated on are hypocrites? ... someone get me a soapbox, I'm about to rant here. When I was in relationships or seeing someone, I NEVER... Relationships

To all you men saying yes: I must be really unattractive, too aggressive, or come off as desperate then because I've tried approaching and asking out men first and it NEVER works! I either get... Dating

I remember mine: it was a guy I knew back in high school. Perfect guy for me too: a geek, he got a vasectomy in his 20s because he didn't want kids, and a bit cynical like myself, lol. It just... Relationships

Yeap. Several times growing up. I'd get a crush on one of my guy friends, especially if we spent a lot of time together or had things in common. ... the feeling was never mutual 😑 They... Relationships

No, it means he was busy with his family like most normal people. He did thank you, be glad of that much! I'm not saying he doesn't care about you, but depending on how close you two are, he... Holidays

One time. When I was younger and stupider (in my early 20s), the last guy I dated I pretty much dated a guy I knew I had nothing in common with just because he loved me and was the only guy giving... Relationships

So he rather spend time with his friends and family instead of someone he hasn't seen in a long time and is dating? Not a good sign :| Not to be cynical, but it sounds like he's lost... Holidays

Absolutely. I've done that in the past to several exes or guys I wanted to get over and yes, it does help. It's like a mental barrier to keep them from reaching out to you, or you being tempted to... Dating

Happy: being off work, seeing my family, and getting and giving presents! Sad: spending too much damn money on one day of the year :| Holidays

I do actually. Not because I am unable to commit, oh no. If anything I'm afraid of putting myself out there, trying to commit to someone, only for him to leave me, decide he doesn't feel the same... Relationships
