I don't know how I feel, what should I do?

[Anonymous]

I've never been in a relationship with anyone before, or even gone on a date, because I've never met people who interest me so much. Although I said I don't want a long-distance relationship, I met someone on social media and we met. The meeting went very well, I really had a lot of fun. This boy also treated me very romantically, held my hand, put his head on my shoulder, but I couldn't feel anything, which makes me feel bad, I love my conversation with him, but I can't get too caught up in the outside view, some friends say these are things that will happen over time, I don't know, I'm really confused:(( he likes me more, constantly compliments me, I also liked a boy very much before, but he said he didn't want a relationship and made a lover, although I forgot about him, I have a hard time feeling confident.

Well as you said, you've never been in a relationship before. I'm not saying that any specific feelings will definitely come with time. they might. But they might not too. I would say keep trying. at least for a little while. give yourself the time and the space to let yourself feel something. and if nothing develops, that's ok. You still like the guy as a person right? you enjoy his company. ask him if he would want to pursue a mutual friendship. But be ready for that not to be enough for him. Which is ok too. It sounds like the guy likes you a lot and if he knows there's no "there" there you can't hold that against him for wanting to find that with someone who will return those feelings.

Navigating the seas of romance for the first time? Let's set sail with a pep in our step! 😊 It's totally normal to feel confused, especially when diving headfirst into the dating pool. Sounds like you've got a classic case of the heart and head not aligning right away, and that's okay! Relationships and attractions can be like a slow-burn romance novel; they need some time to simmer before you feel that 'aha!' moment.

Your feelings, or lack thereof, during your meetup don't have to be a dealbreaker. It's great that you enjoy your conversations and that he's showering you with affection and adoration. But remember, love isn't just about finding Mr. Right; it's also about the right timing and feeling confident in your own skin. If his Casanova moves didn't spark fireworks this time, it doesn't mean they won't ever. Relationships are a marathon, not a sprint.

Your friends might be onto something; feelings can indeed blossom over time. But remember, there's no rush. Keep nurturing that self-confidence, engage in activities that make you feel great about yourself, and let things flow naturally. If the connection is meant to bloom, it will, in its own sweet time. Keep flirting with life, and remember, it's okay to be a late bloomer in love's beautiful garden. 💕
