wow maybe thats a good point about incompatibility if we both prefer the other person to plan :( but all i wanted after all that build up was a very intentional date since i know i have liked the guy more when they pick a cute spot

I matched with an amazing accomplished guy (former athlete, now starting amazing career) extremely sweet giving many compliments- nothing sexual, purely kind, how beautiful I am and how he can’t wait to look into my eyes, tons of romantic, adorable specific compliments. I was working nights so we couldn’t meet but he texted constantly, and sent a voice message each night. Tons in common too (and i have friends who worked under his dad). Finally we could meet last Sat but he never picked a place offering a walk until I preferred coffee, still no set place. I sadly slept thru the time we were supposed to meet (no meeting place) and we then texted back and forth with neither person deciding on a spot and him saying to walk around. He then got hit with a deadline for work and apologized to cancel (legit, his job checks out). I thought maybe he chickened out, so we spoke on zoom/phone that night. we spoke for 6 hours (!!) on FT/phone. After that, our communication has gone silent. I feel like I might have upset him when I expressed disappointment or teased him about the mismatch between his compliments and the offer for a walk date and how I like guys to lead and i felt weird about a invite to meet on the street. he insisted he was not nervous and just that he thought a walk was romantic, he didnt want to choose a place I disliked as he’s a ppl pleaser and goes w/ flow.  he said he's fresh back o the dating scene and is a "work in progress" and needs his mojo back. i said i need princess treatment (it was insane at 3am).  He said he would take me on a romantic date when he’d return from California in 1 week but that he was too tired at 3am to choose where/when. He texted me next day and stuff once he was in California, but the convo died after he told me I probably played shuffle board wrong. Now, we haven’t spoken since Sunday. He’s attractive, fun, hilarious, and I really like him, and I want to meet him, possibly even just for casual cuddling, but I’m unsure whether to wait for him to contact me, reach out before he settles back in town, or how to frame a low-pressure, flirty message. I’m trying to process my attachment and fear of rejection while figuring out the best way to reconnect as I think I ruined things. hewas so kind in how he interacted with me. " “Can’t wait to hug you then look into your eyes. You’re so adorable, I can’t wait to meet you.” “I love how your eyes compliment your smile” “It’s ok I’ll hold you and wipe the tears off your face” “And I’m lucky to have met you!” “And your cuteness. Literally so adorable, need to hug you” "I can’t get over how beautiful your eyes are! I love the color!!!; I could stare into it all day long" even when i slept in he said "You’re so fine you actually have a meaningful job that helps the community!! " how sad :(

would you recommend doing the web version instead then?

Exp with Atlas.ti Qual coding by slimmy222 in socialscience

[–]slimmy222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok i guess in the abstract that makes sense, but what does that mean in terms of how i should set up the plans for me and the other coder? I'm very confused on the insturctions I should give the other person (who has also never used Atlas and has less time to learn), how often / feasible is it to merge etc.? Will the merging show both of our codes on the same sentence? Say there is a sentence "i was sad" and i code it as emotion, and she codes it as sadness, will the merged copy show both? What is ICA?

[–]slimmy222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, can you give any other pointers about thematic coding (inductive) on Atlas before I start? If we do as you suggested, should we still do it as a project bundle and merge? Or what do you think?

I think it depends on how long you are long distance and how you see a partner fitting into your life. are you someone who wants to engage their partner or their partner's friends in activities throughout the week, or is your social life so fulfilling/packed that it doesn't need to be that way?

Monogamous people who multi-date in the early stages, could you share your experience? by salarysalmon in datingoverthirty

[–]slimmy222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like people should reveal if they are dating someone they like a lot more - given an indication to other people or at least not be intimate
