ECarlson Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I’ve basically learned to not get my hopes up when meeting a new girl. I’ve been rejected so many times in the past that I’ve hadn’t no choice but to create this defense mechanism for myself. I just met someone new, went on a few dates with her, and to my unsurprise, she said she wasn’t feeling a connection. I knew right from the beginning when I met her that this was going to be the most likely outcome. So why do I still feel bad? Link to post Share on other sites
basil67 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Two questions: How do you rate yourself as a conversationalist? This woman who didn't feel a connection with you, did you feel a connection with her? If so, what was it about her which made you want to keep dating her? Link to post Share on other sites
Author ECarlson Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 I can carry a conversation just fine once I get going. I could feel a connection. I just felt like I had a lot in common with this girl. Link to post Share on other sites
Veronica73 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I think you still had a sliver of hope. I mean... if you didn’t have a bit of hope, why would you even bother trying? There’s nothing wrong with that (besides that it can hurt). Especially after a few dates. Lots of people would feel sad. I know I would. Link to post Share on other sites
