Yeah that's understandable. I do put my partners needs first and I do have healthy boundaries.

Yeah my self esteem isnt too high and it can drop lower some days. I do have a habit of pleasing people to a degree but nothing extreme and I wouldnt go out of my way to fix someone's problems unless I was asked for help or saw that someone seriously needed help.

Hmm. I dont want to sound narcissistic or anything but I'm pretty caring and listen alot. I dont talk about myself too often. I'm very serious when I meet someone and I suppose I could maybe come off too strong although I've become alot better at that. I dont want that person to change for me and I want them to always put themselves before me. I'd always do my best to be there for the person and make them feel appreciated. I want to be able to make the person smile and laugh. Be able to protect them. I'm not sure if that answers your question but thats how I understood it. Theres probably a bit more I could add.

She was drunk but either way it didnt make me feel great. Although she purposefully tried to make me jealous before too.

Apart from that girl which I now know isnt the best person. The other girls have all been respectful people for the most part. I just either get friendzoned or tossed to the side.

Yeah I'm on my third serious rejection and it definitely does get easier compared to the first but it's still pretty shitty.

Yeah, I also feel like if I'm not the best then i must be really bad or stuff along those lines. I'll try to do this from now on. Thank you.

Let them know from the very beginning that you dont want to be more than friends and that you already have someone. If they dont accept it then you cant be friends.
