He said months ago that he doesn’t reciprocate my feelings, but recently started flirting back, then backing off, then flirting back…. It’s really messing with my head and I feel like I’m going insane… it needs to stop. Doesn’t help that he’ll cheer me up when I’m down either.
And he’ll respond well to my sexual flirting or carry on conversations about sex… and he’ll be clearly enjoying it, like smiling and blushing and he even once got hard around me…. I dunno… it’s just too much.

do I send him a message saying it’s best we don’t talk anymore? Do I just gradually pull away? What do I do?
also he’s much older than me. I should’ve stopped it a year ago. Weird thing is that he never followed me back on instagram, but he follows everyone else back… but he would sometimes comment on my Facebook posts..

We’re currently in a dating app era & the idea behind dating apps seems practical yet you hear more bad than good things about them. Almost 30 & I’ve never been in a LTR, I have accomplished everything I currently want out of life but been able to find a quality guy. I’ve owned a condo & strive to eventually own a home in a few years, are dating apps to blame behind being single or is there more to it (aka am I the issue)? I’ve been told I’m attractive by all kinds of people for a good chunk of my life but I’ve never been approached in person by a guy I’d like to date (getting checked out doesn’t count).
The only times guys I find attractive have acknowledged me were on dating apps, it’s just there’s times where maybe I feel burnt out & can’t be bothered to end up meeting that guy in person.

Or when I feel like I have *options*/ I’m in a mood where I just don’t want to put in the effort. And when the app outlook looks dismal at a given moment (like now), I consider deleting & reinstalling at a later time. I get bored after communicating too long etc, it may seem like self sabotage topped with my terrible anxiety but I’ve never felt SO unsure about something in my life & that *something* is dating. Unsure if my lack of libido/lack of interest in being sexual might play a part (no health issues). There’s always that voice in the back of my mind that makes me think the right guy will change all of that but who really knows. I’m worried I’ll be shriveled up & when I finally have that drive, it’ll be too late to find a match. I heard an influencer say the other day that there shouldn’t be pressure or a rush to date, it’s an opportunity that’ll always be available.

TL; DR: Is dating hard for most? And is my case bad luck or someone unsure of what she wants?

I find men are easier to get along with generally, I find some women cause a lot of emotional distress in me whenever I’ve had female friends. However, it does make me wonder whether the men are only nice to get in my pants but I don’t get any sexual vibes off them. But recently I’ve found some decent female friends and also encountered some really emotionally unstable men who gossip and cause loads of issues. So it made me think of this question.
