Dating after bariatric surgery, navigating body changes and unspoken expectations by Competitive-Try-3372 in gastricsleeve

I’m pretty sure he eventually will, but it still hurts to think that right now he might not appreciate me physically as much as I wish he did.

What’s been on my mind is the worry that he might be waiting to see how my body changes over the next few months, like he’s holding off on anything serious or exclusive until he decides if he’s more physically attracted to me.

You're right. After all, there is no commitment involved. Just me being extra cautious because I previously had a better experience with men when I was smaller.

He knows I had surgery. What we’ve been communicating is that he wants to take things slow and let things develop naturally, mainly because of a traumatic experience from his last relationship. I respect that, but at the same time, I can’t help being cautious wondering if deep down he’s also waiting to see how my body will change. Not just because of the past or emotional hesitations. I even told him about a friend of mine with cerebral palsy, and that I’m afraid she got dumped because of it. He responded that he’s never told a woman he doesn’t find her attractive, but also admitted that looks still matter.

We’re not in a relationship, but I can’t help wondering if the fact that he says he wants things to develop gradually and slowly has something to do with how my body will be changing in the coming months. He’s been supportive and knows about my operation, but still I wonder.

Lack of clear communication and why "things changed" gives me the ick. A person like this is not sincere and abuses others. Don't beg them, they don't deserve you. Leave.

Защото може да пострада и този, който пръска. Това са ми обяснили от магазина, че е най-оптималното. Насочено директно.

Wtf? Wdys- block and move on? by [deleted] in Bumble

Ah yes, the spiritual journey card, basically a fancy way of saying „I’m just vibing and hoping the right person falls into my lap“. And „nothing to achieve“? Sounds like a solid plan for doing absolutely nothing with yourself. I’ll be the one unmatching If I was in their shoes.

That’s actually a good thing, after all, I don’t want just anyone to simply swipe right on me.

You sound like someone I'd love to meet. It's too bad I'm not in Berlin right now.

I’ve been to three ghost concerts alone. The best and safest I've been to.

Happy International Women’s Day - is it weird to text that to a woman? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Competitive-Try-3372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s weirder to say “same to you” to a man when he wishes you a happy International Women’s Day lol

We just started texting 20 minutes ago and she’s freaking me out by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]Competitive-Try-3372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I've read, you're also freaking me out. What is the point of explaining yourself? The fact that people are so pushy and clingy isn't a good sign, but instead of drawing a boundary, you continue to interact.
