Managing relationships

im bad at them. All relationships. I ruin them or they just get ruined for me. Point is they’re bad. I was talking to a guy from a dating site months ago. So he got back in touch with me. He is very interested in me but the feeling is not mutual. He seems like a nice and sweet guy. But I am not stable now and not ready or willing to add a relationship to my life. I’m just frustrated that I can’t date like a normal person my age. But I’m just not normal and that is getting to me again. I don’t know. I’m just upset. I very assertively told this guy I’m not interested. I just want to date like a normal person.

Big hug for you sweetie..... If you decide to go onto a dating site you can always write that first and foremost that you're looking for a friendship..

And then go out like that.... You can say you'd rather go paying your own way or taking turns for a while and just form some friendships.....

You don't have to dive right into what the future holds...... Big hug.....xo

Maybe go out the box and date someone totally different. Someone u wouldn't normally date. Try it might help

i would just take some time to yourself.. like do some self loving activities. and then get back and write down what u want in a relationship do some soul searching and try to stick to it. no ones perfect <3

Focus on yourself. You need to be in a good place, and stable before you can get into a relationship. It wouldn't be fair to the other person, or yourself.

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
