My problem or his?

There is this guy that I have known just for a little bit, and we hung out a few times together and had a great attraction/chemistry. I really felt myself starting to like him more and more. I wasn't sure how he was feeling, so I sat him down just a few days ago and told him I liked him and enjoyed his company and all of that. He told me he felt I was more invested in the connection than he was, and that he thought down the road our personalities wouldn't work well together, and even though he shared that initial attraction, he didn't think it would work. Needless to say, I was/am sad about this, but here is my question...


I believe in being upfront with people, and I would much rather tell someone how I feel than play games. Is this my problem? Or should I wait for a man to come into my life

Welcome to the board northern_gennie,


I'm not sure about something, are you asking if it's his problem because you think he wasn't being upfront with you and instead was playing a game?


::He told me he felt I was more invested in the connection than he was, and that he thought down the road our personalities wouldn't work well together, and even though he shared that initial attraction, he didn't think it would work.


That sounds pretty honest to me.
