Full Episode
How's it going? Hi, I'm Greg. I'm 38, and I'm thinking about reaching out to a girl I used to date, but I need to emotionally protect myself in case I'm rejected again.
Okay. When you say rejected again, did she end the fling?
She ended it after two amazing dates. Yeah. Why did she end it? you know she gave me the whole it's not you it's me thing um you know she's not ready for a relationship and yada yada yada okay and why are you thinking about reaching back out um because to me it's it just seems like unfinished business to me and we really hit it off and um
You know, a lot was said during the dates, after the dates that made it seem like she wanted to, you know, pursue something. And then I heard nothing for a couple of days and then I got the message. So I'm wondering whether or not I should do it, how I should word it if I end up reaching back out. That's why I'm here.
What did you say in response to her when she sent you that it's not you, it's me message?
So I had a little bit of a moment of weakness there. I did kind of ask to talk to her about it, kind of like hash it out, which I realize is not the right thing to do now. And then she sent me back something like saying, like, why would I do that kind of thing? And then I just kind of wished her well and went on my way. Why would she do what?
Like, why would she talk to me about something she's already decided type of thing? Gotcha. Okay.
Well, based on what you're telling me, I definitely don't think you should reach out. Okay. All right. Just for fun, just because we're here to have fun. Just convince me why I'm wrong. Okay. Well...
So we had two great, great dates. We were kind of moving really, really fast. We kind of like skipped, you know, 10 steps in the relationship. We were love love bombing each other. And it's really tough when because I didn't know the term love bombing before.
