My friend, who is a bit confusingly flirty with me (but afaict has no actual romantic intention) invited me to a comedy show a couple weeks ago, and I said yes at the time. The show is this Friday.
I am feeling pretty raw from being ghosted by a guy I liked and now I’m second guessing if it’s a good idea to go hang out with my friend on Friday. On the one hand, a comedy show will help keep me busy/distracted + make me laugh. On the other hand, spending time with this friend tends to make me feel bad because I have to keep reminding myself how he’s not actually into me despite being touchy/teasing/banter etc, and idk, I’m not in a good mindset for more of that “he’s NOT into you” feeling right now.
I don’t have any other plans and most likely would end up spending the evening at home alone if I cancel. Also he’s already bought the tickets so I would be paying him back for it regardless.

I’m still a little bummed my crush didn’t want to go out with me. I really like her and think she’s cool and pretty as hell. Hard to sit at work sometimes and focus, it was a struggle already before this but this has made it worse. On one hand I’m proud of myself for taking initiative and asking directly. On the other I’m clearly still clueless on being able to tell if someone is into me + emotionally available. She didn’t say “absolutely not” but rather she wasn’t ready to date. Her reasoning I unfortunately understand as I also had someone cheat on me before too. My take away was we had more in common than previously thought, but the time is wrong for her
Sigh. Hopeless romantic checking out for another day.
