As in what, I notice that when I’m out with the boys or being social then I get more of a different energy vibe

not really, i'm used to being alone and focusing on myself, this is like the second girl i've ever been on a date with, what's fucked up is i think i caught feelings for her lol

Most men at your age have no idea how much attention women get. Her dms are filled with better looking, richer more successful dudes than you. Women will keep a carousel of men and play this hot and cold game to get what they want.

For a minute, but the worm always turns over time. Then the foot is in the other shoe.

A secret for you brah: You haven’t truly caught feelings for her until you determine that you’d want to marry her, and until you’re married you haven’t caught feelings for her.
Anything you’re feeling is some type of lust, could be LUST lust, could be cutesy lovey dovey lust - that second being WAY more close to what love is, it’s just an imitation of it - whatever it is…it’s lust and infatuation. Not LOVE.
Love is a much more, mmm, laidback feeling. If lust is an inferno from a dragon’s mouth, love is the dragon itself, resting and chillaxing on its hoard

thinking of it now this actually make sense, except for the marriage part hahaha, i appreciate it
[–]elvissayshi 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
If you think the feels are strong when you get married just wait till you get divorced, then you really know what feels feel like. Don't be in such a rush

That’s an interesting way to put it, I often have thoughts of wanting to “put something in” or just basic lust, but I try to channel my energy towards something else and it works

Success grows where attention of the mind is focused. Mind your decisions and only your decisions
[–]JearBear_3 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
nice, but it’s our thoughts to minds decisions right

Take inventory of your day to day tasks, your week to weeks, month to month, year to year.
Start with year to year when you aren’t busy, or if you’re busy RIGHT NOW start with the present moment of “what am I doing right now?”
When you’re not busy think of big life goals, then think small and medium picture on how you’re going to pull that off. As you do what you need to for yourself, check the map, compass, and sextant to navigate your life ship. Correct course if needed.
Life is only stressful when you worry about the past - which is solidified and set in stone. It can’t be changed. The future can, but we can’t see the future. We only have a rough direction on a compass through a really foggy environment. So you gotta be looking at where you are on the course, and correcting yourself as needed. You should feel good in your decisions.
When you make a decision, you full send on it. Commit to yourself and your thoughts and ideas. There’s no going backwards, only forwards. There’s no backpedaling your steps there is only stepping out of the way or tripping forward.
So mind your steps, mind your decisions, mind your thoughts. What message to yourself do your thoughts present? Supportive, or dragging beneath you by your pantleg while you’re tired as well? Our brain should be able to power through anything our body can’t and push through it. If the mind works against you, you’ve lost.
Keep your head on straight

I've never used it, but Tinder has a reputation of being a place where you find someone to bone. Is that not true?
[–]bbalboa99 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
i'm not an expert myself but i can confirm it, it's hard tho to find dates outside of dating apps nowadays
[–]JearBear_3 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
As how does one get a match then starting boningall of sudden haha
[–]YoungCoconut18 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Fall back and let her come to you. Focus on yourself, like others are saying on here. Hit the gym, sounds cliche, but it feels good to improve yourself. Find a new hobby, for example, cooking.

And your effort has 2 to 1 payoff you feel better you look better better getter.

Amen!

Don’t wave good bye. Just move on. Enjoy the moment for what it was. She had fun, you had fun. Don’t make a scene or mope about it. Just move on.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yeah, it's over as you didn't provide her with anything exciting for a long time, so her emotions dropped to the level of indifference. Pretty common story here. You can't take a girl on a date where "nothing happens" :)
[–]almighty_nsa 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
If shes hot and she matched you on Tinder, just find another one. Dunno what the fuss is about. Or keep asking her out. Take your pick.
[–]bbalboa99 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
i really don't wanna go through the whole process again, it's kinda exhausting ngl hahha
[–]almighty_nsa 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I dont mean to be rude or seem not understanding of the problem, but this is not the right subreddit for this kind of laziness. The goal should be to gather experience to create a perpetual streak of good experiences.
[–]abdelhamid99 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You’re right, appreciate it
[–]Creepyunclexd 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Do not text her again I REPEAT DO NOT. If she texts you then make arrangement for the 3rd date and start escalating. Go for a kiss or take her to your place.
[–]bbalboa99 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
thanks for the advice, as much as i like her, i won't text her
[–]Bunny-N-Tulips 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
3 days of not texting? You’re ghosted… move on bro
[–]xxsnowo 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Communication will always be the most difficult thing in every relationship. So I'm gonna give you weird advice: Send her what you wrote here. Rewrite the sentences so you're not talking to her in the third person, but share how you are feeling. Make sure to not focus on blaming her or yourself, it's easy to overthink these things like the 3 days of not talking and see it as "didn't talk for 3 days = she is not interested". Ask her what she thinks, if she's still interested in planning a 3rd date, and make sure to let her know that it's alright if she is not interested. You just want to know whether that's the case or not.
Best of luck to you ! :)
[–]bbalboa99 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
thanks a lot for the advice, think i'll go with it
[–]ymoushkz 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Just don’t text her for a while man, if she doesn’t text you for the next week or 2 then you got your answer.

It’s your responsibility to “hit it” by at least the 2nd date and if not then it’s over - done. Every girl will pull back. She felt like you took forever to initiate sex but never did and so shes pulling back because you failed the test.
Girls want sex with the guy they’re attracted to but they won’t make the first move, that’s your job. That’s just the way it is. I’m sorry but it’s true, speaking from experience. She felt like “Why won’t he fuck me? Am I not sexy enough to him? I’m gonna go fuck Jarred instead tonight.” Don’t worry tho! Let her go! Keep grinding & eventually find her replacement. Hate it, love it. Idc. This is the TRUTH. We’re chillin here. 😎

Sorry you sound needy af. 3 days no talking and you think it's the end of the world? She probably needed to breathe. 1-2 hours to respond is how long a normal adult with a life takes to respond.
[–]bbalboa99 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Not at all, it's just that we used to text each other a lot, even the way she answers lately have changed... idk maybe i'm wrong, but guess i just have to move on
[–]tonstermits69 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yes.
[–]Amkg2020 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Be more forward, like try and bang her etc if yer busy and ye clicked might aswell just try plan dates and bangs etc
[–]bandsupjay 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Wanna know the real answer?
[–]2manymugs 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Maybe she is losing interest because you haven't asked her out again. Lots of women prefer a man who takes the lead. Make a specific plan and ask her out.
