Looking for love in the wrong places
Hey all,
Been single for a long time and punting for a long time. I think I punt because of loneliness most of the time, only 10% of the time because I am actually horny. When I am with the girl in the room for an hour, it feels good but I know it is just a fantasy. When I leave the shop, the sense of emptiness overcomes me. I want someone to eat with, go to events with, and socialise with.
But here's the thing. When I meet a girl I like, I usually have too much interest and fuck it up. Maybe from her side it seems like desperation. But for me, I am just trying to show my interest. If I don't like a girl, I won't waste both our time, but if I like a girl, I am like that guy from HIMYM and already think about marriage and kids in the future. Many times I have fucked up this way. So one way to stop myself is to punt while chasing the girl, which makes me seem less eager.
Sometimes these girls don't work out for other reasons, and I am left with punting again. I know if I have a girlfriend I would never punt. But it is getting one that is too hard for me. I want to stop punting because I feel it is kinda my way to look for a girlfriend, but if I stop, then I become too eager for the next girl I meet and like. It is a bit of a damning cycle.
Any bros here in same situation?
