I've read the book "He's Just Not That into You" and thought it was fantastic! I could really apply most of the scenarios to my own past relationships and learned a lot during my reflection. So now that I am this expert on how not into me someone might be, how did I get burned again?
I mean I didn't chase him....I let him call me; I let him make the moves. It took a while before anything serious happened, because we were friends first, and I was honest. He knew I just got out of a serious relationship and I told him that I was nervous about what was going on and he said that I could trust him. I did exactly that, I figured he was making all these moves and he was the one calling me, I just thought he was different. Older, mature, a good father, fun to be around. It was too good to be true.
My 1st clue to "he just not that into me" is when I start making excuses for why we weren't hanging out as much.
"It was moving too fast too soon"
"He doesn't want to confuse our kids by us being there all the time"
"He has a drinking problem he is trying get over"
"He has baby mama drama"
"I've been going through a lot and he understands that I need space"
Maybe I should’ve just stepped back and realized "he's just not that into me"
I know that it’s unrealistic for me to think I'm not going to let a guy hurt me. I am 23 years old and still young and I've only been 1 super serious relationship so I know that I am still learning how to date. What I need to do now is just remember what happened and learn from my mistakes.
