(Reasons We're Probably Not) Dating Or In A Relationship Thread NSFW • Page 683

To the left, to the left
everything I own moved by Dylan to the left

 

you're on my list now too

 

I’m not looking forward to that at all.

 

Drinking alone in a bar knowing I don’t have a home to go back to tonight is weird as fuck

 

Brb driving to Michigan to come hang out

 

Bar is now playing skinny love while I’m surrounded by strangers, all of whom seem to be with people so my night is great so I hope you chorus folk are doing as well as I am

 

Love you buddy.

 

I don’t get it, why make plans the night before and then just say “hey omg I literally just woke up I worked late last night, and I got called in tonight” 15 minutes before the date.

Wish I could come join ya @bigmike

 

you're looking at it all wrong. Look at it like this:

 

On the other hand, I was like “damn Samsung 50”, u lookin at a fine boi 2nite”

 

We need to actually find a time to get together soon now and get a few drinks

 

For sure man. We’ll figure something out.

 

I’m such a wimp. I was walking to the gym today and I saw a beautiful woman walking towards me whose hair had blue streaks in it (big plus) and I thought, “wow, that is a gorgeous human. I wish I could just ask them out for a drink, but I know that would be weird. Welp, guess I’ll never see them again.” Have any of you ever felt that? That feeling of, “I know we don’t know each other but I’ll regret it if I don’t say something?” We make brief eye contact and I go on my way.

So, I go to the gym for a little over an hour and start to head home. Before I’m home it dawns on me for one reason or another that I want to try the spicy nuggets at BK. It’s about a ten minute detour but I thought, “fuck it,” and turned around. I reach my destination and as I’m walking towards the door to BK, she is walking out!!! What are the odds? This time we 100% lock eyes. I say nothing. I’m eating spicy nuggets.

Edit: maybe I’m not a wimp. I think it’d be pretty ballsy to just ask out a rando, but I wish I had that confidence. I’m sure there’s a way to do that without being a total douche

 

Many, many, mannnnyyy times.

It’s an introvert’s catch-22, talk to them and seem like a weirdo, don’t talk to them and rue it for eternity

 

Have you ever once gone for it?

 

my co-worker thought she be all cool and try to add the girl I like on to my Snapchat to help boost the talking because we rarely work together.

It ended up with the girl not having a clue who I was because of course and my co-worker now having to explain she added her as a friend for me so I don’t look weird.

 

Staying with some family and my mom is not handling this breakup well either

 

Well... my family has effectively ruined my relationship.... we don't know how to even stay together anymore, we don't have a place we both are welcome at... don't wanna be apart... I... am broken..

 

I asked out a rando one time. I’m sure I sounded like a bumbling idiot but I got her number and we made plans! Of course the next day she cancelled so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Hey, that’s pretty awesome though! Just that you went for it, I mean. What was the environment you were in when you asked her? Like a bar, store, etc?

 

We’re technically coworkers in the sense that our paychecks come from the same source but we work in two completely different areas of my city. I had seen her once before in her office area and figured I might as well give it a shot. I made small talk with her then asked if she wanted to get drinks that weekend. I still see her occasionally and she’s really friendly towards me. So it’s good to know I didn’t completely freak her out I guess

 

To be honest, there's only one girl that sticks out in my mind that's worth mentioning. I've gone for it several times, but they've never worked out beyond a date or two.

But the girl I made eye contact several times that I never made a move on, still sticks out to this day. I saw her more than ~10 times in isolated situations throughout college (many times in the lib where we're all studying), but I could never work up the courage to talk to her. So some time passes and I don't see her for a while.

The same year, I lived in a community of townhouses, so my apt back up to the back of another group of guys. I had a dog in my townhouse, and the guys who lived across from me saw my roommates and I hanging out with the dog, so they eventually ended inviting us to hang out with them.

One day I'm hanging out with them, chatting and playing some Kan-jam, and what do you know, the girl that I had a crush on walks outside, and my heart sinks. Turns out, she's dating one of the guys that lives in the townhouse. And the first thing she says to me is "Hey! Nice to meet ya! Do you want a beer?" And I'm like, "shit, that's pretty nice of her".

After seeing them together for a while, there was another night where I took the dog out in the backyard to go to the bathroom, and they were outside. I went over and chatted for a while with the both of them. But the moment that made me realize how much I missed out on, was that while I was talking to her BF, she, without asking, went inside, and grabbed a bowl of water for the dog, without saying a word to me, while she was pretty drunk.

It all seems pretty silly, but those two extremely small gestures made me more attracted to her than anything else. But, I can't ever say anything about it, since the guy she was dating was actually a really cool, and nice dude, and they seem great together.

 

Got in my car to go to my brothers house and turned on Spotify and hit play on some music. My ex must’ve been using the Spotify account to because she changed the music to Julien Baker’s “hurt less” so that’s where I’m at this afternoon.

 

It's definitely hard to try and approach a random woman, and not feeling like I'm being a total creep.

 

Dilemma. 99.9% paranoia, but still...eh.

Girlfriend has this dude friend who I've met. Awesome guy, really lovely and not at all a douche. He had a girlfriend when I met him, so I was always cool with him and my gf talking and hanging out. He's now recently single, and from what I know, seeking console in my girlfriend over his heartbreak, because they're friends. The other night I was out having some beers with some friends and she told me the next day she was messaging him to check up on him, etc. throughout the night. I get it, they're friends...and that's okay, I think. Kinda unsure of the boundaries.

I dunno. Lately she seems to be speaking higher of him than me, and it kinda worries me. I trust her, and he is a good dude. But him being recently single and seeking comfort in my girlfriend throws me.

I've also been on the other side of the fence, where I've been heartbroken and looked to a female friend with a boyfriend to get me through. I had no ill intentions, and 100% supported and loved their relationship. I don't know why I'm so paranoid.

Just am.
