Got myself extremely hyped up to go on a date with a girl I met who was exactly my type (yes she supports Trump) and seemingly out of my league. Everything seemed to be going very well, she was texting me constantly and trying to make plans with me after I first asked if she wanted to go out.
Then we went on what I thought was a “date” but perhaps wasn’t. After we were done eating she said she was going home about 10 min later.
I don’t know what went wrong and I guess it doesn’t really matter now. But I really feel like shit and idk what to do. My job makes me stressed and sometimes I think about destroying my career rather than showing up for work on Monday. The election has been destroying my positive mindset in every way imaginable. I was so happy when I thought I might be building a relationship with a girl who I felt was a perfect fit for me and thought things might be turning around. Now I feel much worse than before I met her... even feeling worse than when Trump lost the election.
I know this is a bit pathetic but I really don’t know what else to do but ask for advice here. I appreciate any advice you can give me for dealing with this situation. PS no Hillary, I am not suicidal.
It sounds like you said or did something that freaked her out for her to bolt like that. It's better not to reveal too much too fast. You need to let an emotional attachment develop before you open up. Maybe you went into too much detail about political opinions or frustrations with work and she got doubts about your stability. Not that you are unstable, but until she knows you better, she might not read you right when you say things that you are already comfortable with and are assuming she will understand. You say she was "out of your league". Don't overlook the plain girls - they might just be the perfect match for you and you're missing it. God bless, brother Pede!
