To take things off of Mach’s thread, I realize how different everyone is when it comes to dating. There are no blanket rules or guidelines . Everyone is different, especially depending on your LL.
I am realizing for me……. When I don’t see a guy or really communicate with them, I lose interest and connection. It will be a week in between me and the new guy seeing eachother. We have a big difference in communication styles. He will read my text and not answer it for a day. Not even answer an actual question. Because of that, he wanted to go out Friday, he never replied to my text, I made other plans.
He hates texting. It’s been a problem in his past R’s.he reads it, does t respond to it, forgets about it, or doesn’t read it at all. When he didn’t respond to me until 24 hours later, I simply said “ thank you” ( a rare good morning text). 6 hours went by and he sends me “are you mad at me “? I said no. I’m just not bothering to respond to his texts anymore than that if he doesn’t read them or if he doesn’t respond to them. I thought he caught on for a min and he has been trying. But it’s forced and you can tell it’s torture for him.
Haven’t from him at all today. It really doesn’t leave me missing him or make me wonder if he is interested. I know he is. But we have different needs for connection. If I am not communicating with someone or seeing them, I tend to just disconnect.
But it’s just different people and different styles and no one is wrong and no one is right. I just have decide what’s right for me .
It’s just more proof I’m not just choosing anyone because I’m “lonely” I need compatibility and connection. I’m certainly going to give it a chance, I’m not ready to throw the towel in, I’m still getting to know him.
We are just all different in how we like dating, what connects us or makes us maintain interest
