The Dating Game: Part Three
I've had a bit of a break from the dating site this year, part intentional and part unintentional. The first week of the year I was ill with flu, I was off work for a few days and the dating site wasn't at the forefront of my mind. The second week I was back at work but still, not one hundred per cent so only went on the dating site a bit.
The guy I'd been chatting to during December has also dropped out of the picture. He seemed preoccupied one Sunday when we were messaging so I said to message me later when he wasn't as busy. He said that he would and I'm still waiting. I've usually messaged him first in the day and had expressed again my interest in meeting up so it's up to him now. Although it's been over a week and a half so I'm not holding my breath.
I'm not completely writing him off, I'm just not giving him any more of my time. The ball's in his court now. I know that life issues might have happened and he, therefore, may have more important things on his mind. Should he reach out to me, well we shall see what happens.
I've not had many matches lately but I know that's because I've not been on a lot lately. My heart just isn't in it at the moment. When I have had matches, the guy either doesn't reply and the match times out, they unmatch when I've messaged or they unmatch almost as soon as we match.
It's just very disheartening to not have the responses I'd like, but I guess at the end of the day that none of those guys are the guy for me. The guy who is for me is still out there, somewhere, and he will appear when the time is right for the both of us and he may not even be off a dating site. I may very well meet him organically and (gasp, shock) in actual real life!
A step back from situations is often needed to regroup and reevaluate things, which is what I'm doing with the dating site. I will no doubt be back at it fully soon, swiping, matching and chatting with guys and seeing if we'd like to meet up to see if we click in person.
I will update you all in a few weeks.
