Have a feeling of insincerity with new person I’m dating, anyone else felt this before?

[Suburur]

Have met someone new and had a few dates over the past number of weeks. Hard to put my finger on why I feel this way but I had a real feeling that they aren’t very sincere. Sometimes I wonder if the things they tell me actually happened in the way they said.
has anyone ever experienced this or understand this feeling? Just a general feeling of insincerity

Doesn't really matter if they're lying or not, this relationship is going nowhere if their manner makes you think they might be.

If you think he’s lying and being insincere this early on, I say cut your losses and move on - trust your gut!

I think if this is your gut feeling, you should listen to it and get out now while it's still early days.

Listen to your gut. He/she is probably in a relationship.

Yes, I have had this and ignored it. One of the worst decisions I ever made.

Listen to your gut. And check out Burned Haystack for help in detecting red flags

Either your gut is right, in which case, you should end it.

Or your gut is wrong, in which case you shoudl still end it becuase you don't feel right about it, for whatever reason.

It should be easy in the beginning. Not hard. not red flags. Not concerns. Not worries abot the next date.

I think some people have been online dating so long they just tell the same stories and it's like a production line. I haven't loads of experience with it but I had a couple of dates with a guy like this. He was pleasant enough but I suppose self centered in that I felt like this.

He didn't connect with me or see who I am at all. It was like a job interview peppered with his anecdotes which were dull tbh.

Agree with everyone else. This is your gut trying to warn you, please do not ignore it.

In a new relationship you should be feeling elated. Negative feelings are waving a huge red flag at you.

Thanks for all your responses. I likely will end things with this person but I was more asking if anyone had experienced a similar feeling of just being unsure how sincere someone else. This is new for me

I had these feelings with my ex but ignored them. He did prove to be insincere. And an abusive narc. The insincerity was because he was just saying and doing things he felt I wanted to hear, love bombing and due to his lack of actual personality. He was an empty shell of a person with no sense of self. He’d adapt to the audience/person he was with but had no core values of his own. He’s actually a psychopath I believe. So be very careful.
