I feel I’m being gaslighted? Guy and I matched on dating app, we hit things off and things seemed to have been going well. Been going out on dates, kissed (no sex), planned next outings and then he got weird. He said we should start off as friends first and then see where things go…like huh?? Why are you on a dating app looking for a relationship and showing me romantic interest, to suddenly say we need to basically start all over and be platonic and then maybe we can date or become an item later?? I’m sorry but this has never happened to me? Especially on a dating app? People are on those for dating or (hookups if that’s your thing), but never have I started dating someone and he’s the one who’s been pursuing and making moves just to be told let’s be friends and see where this goes…? I’m out. Things can’t be the same and are weird now, especially after 9 weeks?? Things were only blossoming and then he decided to squash them and tells me that’s how this should be according to him? But still wants to go out and do things. Am I crazy here?? 😭 Like I get if maybe y’all met organically or were friends to start off with and then give it a go but to force things to stop and say we have to be platonic and then try again?? What a waste of my time. I wasn’t even rushing anything and following his lead too!!
