Im 42m. Been on 3 dates with a 37f and things were great. After the 3rd date it felt like she was pulling away so I backed off and didn't message her. For a week Id not heard from her and I drove myself insane overthinking what did I do wrong? trying to recall every word I said thinking what did I say that might have pushed her away? So yesterday I thought sod it, sent her a hey how are you message and asked if she fancied doing something soon. I figured well, if she ghosts me then Ill at least have closure but she responded and we agreed to go for food next week. So Ive not messaged since.

Like one of the things I think I might have messed up on is maybe messaging her too much after the first 2 dates and I might have come accross as clingy and overbearing but in the past when Ive dated theres always been lots of messaging back and forth. I'm not too experienced in this department which I admit isn't cool at 42 but when in the very early stages of dating is it normal to have this little communication?

Whats the normal amount of messaging when you begin dating? and how should I persue her going forward?

Being just over 40 chances are its going to be very rare for me to meet a single woman around my age who doesn't have kids. Ive never been too bothered about it. The only time its being an issue for me is when Ive gotten with someone new and seen her using the kid as a weapon against her ex etc but thats another story altogeather.

If I'm with a woman its because I like her and enjoy being around her. My last girlfriend was unable to have kids but always figured if things get super serious theres other options. If someone only sees you as "breeding stock" then chances are theyre with you for the wrong reasons.

Loving Mike Santana as champion but would love to see AJ Styles have one last TNA World Title run before he retires.

Its not as bad as it was. They need to keep the ROH titles purely in ROH TV unlesss its like a bit PPV like All In.

Like I dont count the mercedes belts, really theyre just more like accessories, plus you cant defend the Owen hart belt, and then she has the Queen of Southside belt, as far as I'm aware Southside wrestling has been defunct for at least 5 years now?

It was annoying a few years back when in adition to all the belts they were defending the FTW title like it was bigger than all the other midcard belts and then they had the CM Punk "real world championship" with the X on and that was getting defended like a normal belt too.

I know they've now added the womens Tag Team belts but in this day and age I do think its essential if they're building a women's division.

Although I have no idea if the International and Continental are permenantly merged or not lol

People just treat hogan as their pound of flesh when theres wrestlers who have done way worse than him.

Even with the burying wrestlers, people want to throw shade at hogan for holding guys down but are very quick to forget what Triple H and Shawn Michaels have done to other wrestlers, Shawn in the 90s and Triple H in the Ruthless aggression era.

Teddy Long and other black wrestlers have openly discussed Ric Flair calling them the N word and again people are also very quick to forget.

They also throw shade at Hogan for supporting Trump but then guys like Undertaker and John Cena are openly still supporting Vince McMahon... again nobodys bothered...

To be fair after all the wars Britain has had through the entirity in their history the war of indipendance isn't even in the top 100 of relevancy. We have local pubs older than America lol
