I didn't do anything crazy/obsessive or anything, I was just a bit too nice/bit too eager to please/didn't let him come to me enough .
Anyway, he likes me a lot as a friend and we still get on great but he's just not interested (he hasn't said this but I just know)
I hate the phrase 'plenty of fish in the sea' because it simply isn't true.
ATM I'm just trying to not be too hard on myself and not beat myself up for it. If I'd been a little more detached, a little less nice, I may not have ruined it, but it's too late now.
I'm 33 which is a tricky age, I'm trying to just focus on myself and hobbies. I'm finding OLD depressing tbh, and don't even feel that I need a partner anyway. Being single is great tbh, I just feel a bit of social pressure and ended up really liking this guy.
How do you stop ruminating and blaming yourself?
