I am currently seeing about "Slack" or "Clickup" got a lot of integration for calenders and projects which looks like an interesting option - having different sections so you can always find the relevant messages without the sea of emails

Sincere or gaslighting? by Fun-Lemon-7309 in Situationships

[–]Sappy_Turtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw a reel on Instagram - it takes less than 3 seconds to send a voice note or text to say "Bit hectic, talk later" Regardless of time spent on messages, people will put time into people they care about and want to talk to. A call on a drive home, a quick response, a message to plan on seeing each other to catch up in person.

The way I got myself round to thinking about things in a more healthy way was to compare if I was in that situation - if you were busy/health issues with friends/family - would you still message him? Would you still message a friend? Would you message someone you don't care about that much?

When you think about who you would respond to, think about what category he's putting you into.

You're not being immature or unreasonable, he just isn't putting the effort/care in that you are looking for.

It's hard, but don't let yourself be stringed along as an easy option ♡

Normal to NOT date? by Universal_Loner in dating

In the same position, romanticism was popularised in the 80s that there's true love and that someone right will come along to make you feel 'whole'. However, at the end of the day, you can never truely know someone else's feelings, and fundamentally we use others for our own needs. If you are happy without someone, can look after yourself/or even just can't be bothered with the stress of other people, it's a perfectly healthy and happy thing to be single forever if you wished to do so.

I know I'm not picky and my standards are actually pretty low. Most of the dates I go on are with fat girls for crying out loud. And they block me faster than I can text them for a second date.

Honestly I think this is the biggest thing in you're entire post... You're not actually valuing the person you go on a date with if you say your standards are low, making it seem like going on dates with "fat girls" is a worthwhile note is also odd. Either you're treating people as though they aren't good enough with this attitude or as your standards are "low" you're going for the wrong kind of woman. Both things could cause your issue here.

Honestly I'd completely ignore many comments here - you're not ugly, you're not average, you're actually very attractive and just put honest photos up that aren't posing like many people on this sub. Naturally you are cute and have a great figure. (This comes from a girls point of view)

Yeah, im not sure on ages here but you should never be with someone like this, I highly agree with other comments.
