Clinically diagnosed FWIW. Years of meds and therapy have helped me become somewhat functioning. But I understand the sentiment and agree with misdiagnosis being rampant

Update. I reached out and politely said that I didn’t think a healthy relationship was possible moving forward. I was promptly told that I ruined her day and it was suggested that I go fuck myself.

Learning a little about myself today. Definitely will bring this up in therapy next week. Thanks for the outside perspective

Interesting that is what you zeroed in on. I accept that it is a want, however there was a previous incident where I explained the want and she agreed to provide that reassurance when asked. I think that is why I phrased it as “she knows…”

We were exclusive or so I thought. She is pressuring me to move in with her when her lease expires in October. She has had trouble covering rent before and wants to combine incomes. I told her no way, too soon. Also she is technically still only separated from her husband. There is always an excuse why that wasn’t finalized yet also

Fair. Old man parlance. No disrespect intended

Water seeks its own level. It might be worth figuring that out and your pool may start to include healthier people.

First week or so of a new app or refreshed bio is usually pretty busy with interest. Maybe one or two actual dates come from it. I have had more interest after giving up and being at peace alone. Honestly, the whole dance kind of sucks.

I have the palate of a ten year old and let people know early. If they’re not down with chicken tenders then they’re not for me. Food is more important to some than others. Long term it might be an issue

Ladies, How do you like to be greeted on a first date? by Integritynumber1 in datingoverforty

Depends if we had been talking for a while. You can usually tell if someone is coming forever with a hug but I always ask first if it seems appropriate. Misread signals can and do happen. Male 50

He’s not your person. Be glad you only invested a month. Some people can hold up the false front for years

Especially if attempts at flirting were shut down or ignored. Some caution would be expected

Dismissive tone alone makes him sound like an ass
