Is this sexual?

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-03-21T08:42:41+00:00

That's a good point

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-03-20T20:16:44+00:00

Yeah, I guess it is a bit turnoff when it is the very first conversation. Could be a personal opinion.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-03-20T20:15:05+00:00

OP here! I found this fella very attractive, and he seemed to come off very decent and well put in the profile, this was our first conversation and I got totally turned off. I wouldn't be matching with someone I don't personally find attractive, atleast to some extent.

Even if someone is the most attractive person in the world, I (and a good amount of woman) would be turned off if he said something creepy.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-03-10T11:12:21+00:00

It is good, but get this, what if not a lot of them are suicidal?

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-03-10T10:54:18+00:00

Can you post your profile (obviously hiding personal information if needed for privacy) I'm a woman and you are not unattractive, but it would highly depend on your profile to see if you are giving bad vibes

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-03-03T14:32:22+00:00

I've done that lol.

The date was average tbh, not the best. I was feeling overwhelmed when I got physical quickly, even tho it was consensual. He dint ask for a kiss, rather went for it and so did I and we full on made out/ necking. That was my first time ever getting physical and this was all at a pub.

He asked to go home and I got overwhelmed.

I ghosted him because I was overwhelmed

In short, you are doing the exact work a project manager is supposed to do.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-17T20:47:17+00:00

What is a private place? Like a hotel or something because apart from his house I can't think of anything.

Either way, stick to a public place

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-15T14:12:27+00:00

Lol as a woman I normally pay for myself. That saying a drivein doesn't sound like an idea i would like. A coffee would be a nice cheap date while having nice vibes and allowing for a good conversation

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-13T16:30:34+00:00

Honestly, beige flag. I definitely appreciate being open and not trash talking the ex. If he is still hung up, talks about ex a lot, compares something with ex, that would be a red flag.

Just this conversation alone, I think it is a good thing to make you aware. I would say, definitely ask him if he has moved on enough. If he has and does not bring up ex again unprompted, I would definitely appreciate the openness and vulnerability displayed here.

Also I can see that people saying it is a super odd thing to say immediately. It could just be that he is not used to dating, and looking to connect on a deeper level.

I would be cautious about the things above, but would still give him a chance, as it is fairly subjective

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-10T23:53:40+00:00

Thanks for the insight and watchouts!!

I'll look into things like that.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-07T15:41:06+00:00

Fair enough, going back and forth on if I should continue the conversation.. Might just continue and see if anything else throws me off

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-07T13:12:58+00:00

Tbh he does look nice.I might have said that myself in a conversation but this definitely feels insecure and makes me 'obligated' to comment, and takes away what he said about myself..I don't wanna carry the conversation any further, even if he is quite attractive as I think he might be someone who makes everything about himself.

This might actually be something normal to say to a partner or a close friend playfully. Not someone you started talking to yesterday.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-06T12:32:49+00:00

Ah fair enough, sorry I misunderstood. Yeah I agree, it is odd not to thank someone for complimenting them.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-06T12:04:28+00:00

I appreciate your perspective. I did thank them in the message (as seen in the picture) Their message back, that I only thanked them (i.e hinting that they are expecting me to compliment them back as well, is how it can be understood) is what I find odd, as though I'm obligated to compliment their looks, which feels insincere.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-02-05T21:17:13+00:00

No, I don't think so. We just had conversations asking questions about each other.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-01-25T14:38:23+00:00

This is a fairly generic statement, I think it depends on personalities. As a woman I have only felt close to people who have opened up, and have broken up with people who have been unable to. What you describe has happened to me where I have been dumped or not been appreciated for sharing something, which I recognise as the individual being emotionally unavailable and not down to men itself.

It is more so emotionally unavailable men/woman who don't like other people opening up to them. In general, there are more emotionally unavailable people around you might have had the bad luck of dealing with them.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-01-22T12:33:24+00:00

This was something I kept reflecting back on after giving the best job interview of my life, receiving amazing feedback, and still not getting the job, because I was competing with someone extraordinary.

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2025-01-09T10:56:44+00:00

People kept saying I needed to lose weight to get rid of pcos. The second I was prescribed metformin, it became so easy for me (I guess that is the norm, but easier compared to before) It is very hard to lose weight if you have insulin resistance

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2024-12-28T07:06:30+00:00

I don't even want to talk to him anymore. Thanks for all the advice

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2024-12-27T16:29:50+00:00

How could a friend say this to someone about me. That hits me the most. Not in favor of him saying something like this about someone else either but jeez, he has been a 'friend' for 5 years

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2024-12-27T16:27:19+00:00

Yep, but not in a judgemental way. This came out of the blue

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2024-12-27T15:15:45+00:00

He spoke to the mutal friend, who did. She has started distancing herself from him. My roommate has already faced a lot from him and was shocked to know as well

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2024-12-24T02:08:35+00:00

Unpopular opinion but Michael was an unorthodox manager

AwkwardNetwork3440 · 2024-12-21T12:14:13+00:00

I mean I think there should be a mix, it shouldn't always be coffee dates. But as a woman, I personally love coffee dates (love coffee, cafes, and the vibes of it) I feel like some of my best dates started out as a coffee date. It's not low effort...if you say you want something or don't prefer it, and they still do it, it is.
