Hi :)
I've been reading this board for a few days now, and hope no one minds me jumping in and posting a question.
For the past few years, I've been VERY busy and not dating much. I've also gained wait and have some self-esteem issues from it. I am, however, quite honest about that in my OLD profiles. (Well, the weight gain, not the issues.)
I was talking to a man a few weeks ago who I really liked. Very charming, VERY much my "type", and I was looking forward to getting to know him. In his profile, he never said anything about body types, etc. He did, however, mention that self-esteems is important.
So he asked me about the "few extra lbs" thing, and I explained to him. He asked how much I had to lose, etc, and I was honest. I also told him I considered holding off on teasing him (yes, I initiated, b/c I knew he kept looking at my profile, and I thought he was really good looking) til I lost the weight. (My schedule will normalize after next week for the first time in 4 years.) He said he didn't care, but got more distant after that.
We met the next week, and it was great, but I stupidly "fooled around" with him. He was great for a day or two after, I had a minor self-esteem crisis, and he's been gone since.
Is there anything I can do to say "I'm sorry. I know you're stressed right now, I've been under stress to, but if you want to try this again, I'd like to also", or should I give up, accept the rejection, and move on before I seem any more pitiful? :)
TIA!
