Search Results: kiss on the hand

I’m 27, a vegan, and I’ve never had a serious long-term relationship. I’m a vegan because I grew up in a conservative Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Christian household. Long, story short, SDAs, especially more conservative ones believe in a prophetess named Ellen G. White and she has a health message where she encourages believers to be vegan and not drink coffee. My parents imparted these ways on me. I’ve tried eating meat here and there, but it’s rarely tasted good or I’m slow at eating it.

The one short-term relationship that I’ve had was with a fellow vegan in the church, but on the 2nd date she ate my food and she never showed me any affection (we never held hands or kissed).

Other girls in the church either had more liberal parents that let them eat meat, or they want a guy that’s not in church, or they want some extremely long courtship process and have ridiculously high standards.

My parents projected a lot onto me growing up. They wanted me to be this superstar academically and stressed education. I never went to any SDA schools because my parents thought their education standards were too low. Part of me regrets not going to one because I feel like I could’ve met a girl who’d like me. But now at my church, there’s barely any girls.

When I look outside on dating apps like Hinge & Bumble, I rarely get matches and dates, but when I do it’s like they can sense something’s wrong with me. For instance, I went on a date with a girl and ordered a chicken pasta out of fear of being rejected for ordering something vegan. I didn’t finish it and she thought that was weird. She ghosted me after the date.

Even had a friend in church recommend her friend outside of church to me. We had a lot in common from liking the same basketball players and teams to traveling to different countries. But she said she doesn’t date any kind of vegetarian.

I feel so behind socially and hopeless. My parents say I’m suffering for Christ so it’s ok. I think that’s a load of crap.

This woman and I hit it off really well. She then asked me out to get coffee with her. The day before she said let’s do dinner instead. The day we were supposed to get dinner she didn’t text me at all. The next day she texted me and said she was really sorry and said let’s take a spontaneous trip to the next city over. We drove up and the whole ride she held my hand and caressed me. She booked us an air bnb for the night and we cuddled all night. On the drive back home the next day she did the same thing in the car. When I dropped her off I went in for a kiss and she said no so I said ok. She didn’t text me at all the day but then drunk called me that night. I went made sure she ate and drank water. The next day she went to the E. R. I picked her up and took her home. The next day she asked me to come over so we could make pancakes but when I pulled up she didn’t respond to my text turned out she fell asleep. She invited me over again this time she apologized for being all over and said she’s moving to New York. I told her I really liked her she said she really liked me and we slept together. That night she text me again asking me to come over and we sleep together again. A few days later it’s her last day and she asks me to spend the night with her. we have sex again, shower together and cuddle all night. She tells me she’s gonna call and text all the time, that she’s gonna miss us hanging out, and that she doesn’t wanna go. We wake up the next morning have sex one last time and she leaves. She texted me all day while she was traveling and when she got there she trailed off. Now she texts me “hey, how’re you” I respond then don’t hear from her until she asks me again a few days later. She occasionally likes my post on social media and even commented hearts on one picture. I really don’t know what’s up with her though. Anything you guys have to share will help.
