Search Results: mutual feelings

The last time I “dated” someone I was 23, we were in a STR for about 3 months & it ended because to me it felt like settling. Since then, I’ve met up with men from dating apps on and off throughout the years. Maybe 1-3 were kind of sketchy, that was in my early twenties too but since then all the other ones were decent but I just didn’t feel them. And I think it was mutual, sometimes I’d hear back, sometimes I wouldn’t but it was known the feeling was reciprocated. I’m old let’s admit it, I’ve never been in love but intimacy scares me & I don’t really have much of a sex drive at all. Sometimes I have to ask myself if I like men because even though I know I do, I do not like any of these guys in the end. When we communicate on the app it seems fine but when I meet them in person I’m just so bleh towards them. They don’t catfish me, they just don’t live up to my expectations & I’ve learnt to not have any at this point in my life. I don’t like women sexually or romantically, I didn’t meet up with anyone in 2022 & today was the first time I met up with someone from
Hinge. Clearly was meh, should I just toss in the towel? Is it simply a case of just not meeting the ONE? Let me know if you have any follow up questions

scenario :

in your friend group there is one friend you have feelings for and it’s mutual, you both like each other. do you think its rude if you occasionally flirt with each other in front of the other friend (s)? or do you think its best to suppress your feelings around others and flirt in more private settings?

regardless of answer please explain why you think that.

I've also found myself struggling to reconcile his assurances that I am the best thing and that he's never cheated with certain behaviors that have given me cause for concern. The recent discovery of a text where he communicated with an escort has left me feeling deeply unsettled and uncertain about the foundation of trust in our relationship.

I value the honesty and transparency that are essential for a healthy and fulfilling relationship. His statement that he loves me contrasts with the conflicting signals I've encountered, and it has left me feeling conflicted and unsure about the future of our relationship.

I believe that addressing these concerns openly and honestly can help us gain clarity and determine the best path forward. I care deeply about our relationship and want to work through any challenges together, provided that we can establish mutual trust and understanding. It's important to me that we can have an open and genuine conversation about these matters.

we talked about having a kid together - with his involvement or not
