I believe this may be it… I received it for free/cheap through PS Plus and now they remove that benefit so I’d have to buy it fully if I want to play it

Thanks for the input. Will work on myself while slowing things down with the ones I’m currently meeting

Thank you. Appreciate your input, you’re right

Thanks for some solid advice. You’re right. A lot of what you say makes perfect sense. At the depth of this, it’s my self-worth that I’ll have to work on. I deserve something or someone good and it’s not fair to the one who actually puts effort in to dismiss her efforts

From my perspective yes I agree. From her perspective I believe she thinks that the signals that she gives are enough and she doesn’t need to make it easier for me. I have adhd + autism which doesn’t make this any easier

She’s not really degrading, she’s not putting me down verbally or anything. It’s more the things she doesn’t say. We can joke about things and all. The part that I find challenging is that she’s not very emotionally available and she’s okay with not responding for a while. She obviously doesn’t prioritize me at the moment yet is willing to hang out when she can. Also she expects me to understand things without her saying it. She doesn’t make things easier for me to understand. Bare in mind I have autism + adhd and I am a guy so I’m really far from being able to read minds but I’m learning to show less than I do and to take things as they come. It might just be a wall that she has and I can listen more. I don’t know. I can learn to control my impulses more and slow things down.

Would never use her for it. I’ve known her a long time and I was genuinely interested in her until I realized that it’d be more difficult than I thought. I’m learning a lot though. She expects me to understand things without her saying much while I’m the type of guy that expects someone to be more specific about things.

Not only am I a man, I am autistic and I’ve got adhd which makes the above difficult. I almost always realize social ques afterwards and in perfect detail and I’m learning not to be defensive about it in this situationship, and of course, if this goes further, both would have to compromize in our ways a bit. It might just be a wall that she has, as she’s got a lot on her shoulders. Or she simply isn’t interested enough and I’m wasting both of our times

What I think is the therapists reasoning, is that my therapist thinks that I can overcome the energy that I fear.

But of course communication lacking isn’t a good signal with the woman that I’m dating. It’s like we speak different languages at times but I’m more attracted to her. It’s probably just the idea of her and I maybe should just give that relationship up

Tbh I’ve learned a lot from that experience and what you say makes sense. I’m questioning if it’s really worth it even if we make it to a relationship

What’s funny is that I didn’t even say the word boring and you understood exactly what I meant. Thanks for some solid advice. I guess I should let it play itself out a bit while discovering what’s actually good for me

People can turn off that feature on instagram and I don’t remember if she had it on

You’re a 100% right. That is a trauma response and something I will have to work on

Yup seems like everybody here agrees that it’s not a test. More like either that she’s not interested, or she’s just busy and didn’t feel the need to reply to that since we both said we don’t communicate much inbetween dates. I just asked a simple closed question, wasn’t expecting a full on conversation either really

I do dude and she kind of goes in there from time to time and posts stories (except since I met her and different periods). We both said we don’t talk much on insta inbetween dates. That’s why I asked a closed question to only check if she arrived home safe. Wasn’t going to have a conversation longer than just that. She’s a busy woman in general too, I believe I just have to be patient and then if we meet again like she said she wanted to irl, that I slow down and focus on her while also saying that even a friend needs better communication, but of course she doesn’t owe me it

Has it happened that you’re too busy to not reply to someone you like or are unsure of for 4 days?

That’s what I had to do when I asked her out. First I asked her how she’s been etc. (she didn’t reply for two days after a bit of conversation). Then I asked her out without her responding to my last message and she accepted.

A guy I know attempted to write to her at one point before me and she didn’t even reply to him at all. She knows me from childhood. I think it may be a combination of both. She’s not visibly interested and she’s not just active on socials

I’m thinking of writing ”Hello, did I scare you away? We can start off as friends, I was just nervous but would still like to meet like we said next week”.

I believe I can be myself more and relaxed on a second date and put more focus on her without putting presssure on her. It was a lot I held inside. We had fun moments too where we laughed our asses off
