a movie was a bad idea, as would have been dinner. Try something more active next time (or tell me to shut the hell up, as you did not ask) conversing while in motion is usually much more productive and less "weird energy" builds up as both of you will be distracted with movement (whatever the movement is). — Book273

Went on a movie date today. Seemed to go pretty well and there didn't seem to be too much weird energy which is atypical when I'm involved. We had similar reactions throughout movie so it wasn't dead silence the whole time. We hugged and went home. I texted asking if she would like to hang out again. She had expressed having had a good time. She said she was also seeing someone else and had decided to go to the next level with them and suggested we be friends. But if she was already committed to commitment with this other guy why go on a date with me? It seems logical that this was a brush off, and yet she doesn't seem the type. I anticipate that as friends we will talk less and less until she's simply too busy to be bothered. Anyone see this situation any differently? — TiredThinker
Not true. And this hurts somehow.
Someone has put my insides on fire and I can't put it out. It hurts, especially because I know I won't be going out with this person. And I had been, in the past, able to not think of anything like this so much. Because I care about my work, my plans, and the fun I've had interacting with the philosophy community. Now I feel nothing else. And it's fucking... — Caldwell
And it's fucking....
