Yeah for sure! So I brought it up and said something along the lines of ” hey so are you ever going to stay a weekend here?” and she said something like “ok yeah I feel bad about leaving but I didn’t want to bring it up”. and we talked it out a little and I made sure to emphasize that I understood that it is an awkward position for her to be in and I get it but that it’d be nice to hang out on the weekends. She said that when he comes here for the weekend she doesn’t have to stay over there and that we could hang more but like whenever we make plans when he’s here its like really short. It’ll be like we plan to go to a fall festival and we could only be there for like an hour because they made plans to get lunch. so I said maybe like doing stuff for more than a hour lol? that’s basically the conversation we had a while ago..

No that was definitely very helpful. Thank you!! I will definitely try some dating apps, what is a good app to start with, tinder?

i have with a couple. what was different was that I was friends with them before. Our personalities mixed well. We just had really good convos.

yes. So in my experiences the guys who have expressed interest in me just come off way too strong to the point where its creepy. I had one literally drive to my house and he sat in his car and texted me he was outside. Like WHAT?? Also just weird staring and awkward/off putting conversations with others.

Not sure yet but probably like marketing management

Wow, I’ve made a couple posts on this site, and this has been the best real advice I’ve gotten. Thank you so much. These are really crazy times and I’m so thankful for a site like this. Sending good health and safety. Thank you again!

I definitely have become more outgoing than where I was as a kid, but I still take a while to warm up to people. It is kind of frustrating because I seem to attract a certain type that I just do not see myself ever going out with, I get frustrated because my options are not what I want in someone. I’m sure its not just me but that seems to be what I’m getting rn, I used to get flirty interactions with people I actually liked but I think one person misread where I was at and kind of took advantage and I think I just sectioned myself off and started dressing more baggy/ frumpy to not draw attention to my body, which honestly I regret that I did that to myself. Recently though I’ve wanted to dress cuter for school but now that people see me in leggings and a hoodie all the time it draws attention to my body that I’m not 100% happy with. I just want to take care of myself and put myself out there more. And that guy it was a just talking kind of thing, like we were flirting back and forth and told each other our feelings and he got more with benefits on me and I was uncomfortable with that. I am trying to kinda get back out there relationship wise and friend wise because I have secluded myself unfortunately. I think I have fun with new people naturally and make a good impression but when it comes to like romantic stuff I’m cool over text and call but in person I work myself up and kind of freak out and panic.

Its gotten better, its just sometimes they are just so stressed from work that I suppress my feelings to enjoy the moment, and not turn it into some depressing convo that would end up with me crying, I just feel so overwhelmed with my own feelings that i have bottled up, and then I have a crap ton of work to do, And no one to talk to. Im just not sure what I can or should do. As for my grandma, she is just always going to be critical, and I think thats something I resent her for.
