I knew something was wrong... no 4th date

I know what you’re all going to say before I start this... I’ve only been on 3 dates with the guy you shouldn’t feel like this. But his company was the best and he made me feel so special.
The past two days I knew something wasn’t right and so I decided to ask him out... and he said what were you thinking and I said I’d visit him... he said he needed to get something off his chest and that he would call... I said if you don’t want to see me again just say... he said it’s not that I just need to explain over call.

So he called and basically said something like this ‘its The fourth date now and it’s the point where feelings start to develop, and I don’t see it working for us, basically cause of the distant (30 mins)’ I said id travel and there’s longer relationships than that.. and is it me or my job blah blah. He said we wouldn’t have time for each other and it’s really hard cause I really really like you (he said that a few times) and If things were different I’d defs be asking you to be my girlfriend without a doubt’ I tried to persuade him but he went quick. I left him he then text me saying ‘I’ve had the best time, you deserve the best’ we had beeen talking a long time before these 3 dates..

We had a heart to heart and I told him how I felt... and basically if he liked me we could at least try... he seemed persuaded and kept saying it’s hard... I can’t write it all out on here. I said I don’t feel like throwing it away and he said ‘neither do i’ he then started saying how I’d got him into one of the places we ate and I said ‘you can remember me by that’ he put a cry face and said no doubt... then we have just been talking about what we usually do. He’s replying so I am...

I’m so confused and do like him....

Leave him alone forever 10

    Just leave him alone, and forget about him. If a guy really likes you he won't be scared of a little thirty minute drive in the car. He's probably just too codependent, and wimpy to openly admit that there's no chemistry between ya'll for him. You're not helping this by acting do desperate and needy for him. Just leave him be, girl.

    I laugh at 30 min distance. I dated someone once for 3 years 2000+ miles away. Reason it ended was she admitted to crossing boundaries that were established.

    10/10 he was cheating on his gf with you and broke it off for any number of reasons. 30 minutes is no time at all, I'd drive 3 hours for a girl.
    Anyway I could be wrong but it's sketchy how everything was going fine then he's suddenly saying 'nah, distance'

    By the fourth date, things should be getting physical. He is being partially honest with you. But, he wants to move on to find some hot monkey love with lots of "friendship frosting" on top.

    Sorry, but you didn't make the cut.

    It’s good you like him just try to makes sure he likes you and on the same page it be bad if you think nice husband and he just thinking a nice friend to chat with

    1. He's insecure about something, I don't know what but there's something he is uncertain of. Speaking from personal experience being the guy. For me it was I had a lot of personal insecurities(i.e. low self-esteem, trust issues, yadayada) and liked the constant physical attention that long distances can't provide.

    2. If it wasn't the previous reason then he's talking to someone else and doesn't like you.

    Either way he's a manipulative asshole. Also speaking from the perspective of a manipulative asshole.

    Well you didn't take my advice. Get back on tinder and find someone else. Enough with this asshole loser. Next time put out by date 3 ok?

      You're telling someone to have sex, whether they are ready or not, purely because the guy will "expect" it?

      Rapey vibes, much?

          Green boogers and all his alts, such as mcbean, have blocked me. So I don't see them, unless I log out. Regardless, I can't reply to such comments. Champ.

          Try again.

          Also, try blocking me again. Even though you say you don't block people. Yet have blocked me at least three times.

          Spoiler alert: it was hilarious.

            I have blocked you cause you are annoying as fuck and dense to boot but I miss out on others comments.

            Again the word you are looking for is change.

            How stupid are you to sit and argue with a 20 when you are suppose to be middle aged.
