Hey guys,

So I just started dating this girl. She seems great, attractive, smart, witty, etc etc. However, whenever I start dating a girl I think that I really like I become this little puppy dog and historically, to no surprise, it never works out. I become too nice, too available, never really challenge them and they see that and then they end the relationship, which I do not blame them for.

Whenever I date girls I'm not extremely interested in, they always seem to end up really liking me. I know and I can see how I act differently. I blow them off a lot, don't respond to texts immediately or at all sometimes. I feel like I'm clearly showing that I am not interested and it has the opposite effect that I want it to.

So bottom line, I know it's going to be really hard to not act like a puppy dog in love with this girl I just met. You guys have any tips on how to play it more cool so to speak?
