I guess I get anxiety about hurting someone’s son that I know if the feelings aren’t the same. My anxiety generally lies around hurting others.
If it helps, adult men have all been rejected more than a few times. We are the initiators so face that more than women. I barely remember ladies who don't make it to 3 dates, as long as they're not the rude sort who ghost leaving you uncertain for days.

Even after five dates and a month, it was a sad moment, but by the time she messaged me again that evening (confusing), I was ready to block her drama and was already wrapping my head around housekeeping and new options.
