I’m 29 F almost 30. I came out of a long term relationship a year ago and in that time I’ve had 3 ‘situationships’ where things started going great and then all of a sudden they cold and I get the whole ‘it’s not you it’s me’ BS. 2 from online dating and one was someone I knew from before.
i’ve been dating someone new now, we started out as friends when we met in April but there was always something there and it recently became romantic. However the other day I sensed something was a bit off so asked him, he basically in a nutshell said he’s been focusing on our differences more than our similarities and feeling insecure about it. There was more to it than that but that’s it in a nutshell. But he still wants to see me again. We did talk things out about it over text as haven’t had chance to see each other since yet (we’ve been seeing each other around once a week) but It’s just made me feel really insecure as things were seemingly going so great, and it’s got me questioning whether I want to continue things with someone who has made me feel insecure, as he also dodged the question when I asked what the differences were he was worrying about. Due to meet up again on Saturday so I’m just going to see how that goes but I can’t help but feel a bit more withdrawn from him.
If this one doesn’t work out I’m genuinely considering being on my own for a good amount of time. The thing is I’m nearly 30 and do want children, I know I still have time but it’s not loads and loads of time. I’m just finding dating so exhausting.
