Really just the title. I (28f) can’t enjoy any part of dating because I genuinely can’t tell if the guy likes me or not. People always say the early stages of dating are fun but I have no idea how that can be when the whole time I wondering if this guy actually likes me or just wants sex. So many “say” they’re interested yet go days without talking to me or don’t care to see me again. Most recently I was talking to someone for a few weeks before our first date. I thought the date went super well but then I hardly heard from them after. They didn’t even seem to care to set up another date with me. I’ve had very few relationships in my life (2) and I can confidently say they didn’t like me that much. I think they just dated me for convenience. How are people so certain that the other person actually likes them? I know at my big age I should know but this is a never ending problem. I’m fairly certain I’ve never been crushed on before even as a kid
