Awkward 😕

I don’t know if I should be even asking this here but it’s bugging me and I’ve been overthinking it a lot.

I went through a very bad break up. I’m still getting over it in a way.

My friends suggested I try to meet some other men; just start off chatting. So I took a chance. Here’s my dilemma....

Is it normal nowadays for the conversation to Center almost entirely around sex? I mean GOOD LORD. the few guys I have talked too not even half way in to the conversation started talking about sex. And there’s this one guy I had to block because seriously, he’d say hello and say something obscene.

Am I being too uptight? Is this how this goes now? lol I want to laugh and cry and I feel stupid for even asking......

Hi browneyesbl! Unfortunately yes this is normal. 🙄 I’ve dealt with this a lot myself and it’s extremely annoying and frustrating. You’re not being uptight and not every guy is like this, but I will admit a good portion are. And don’t feel stupid for asking, this is all new to you! And sadly it’s becoming a reality haha. You’ll get some bad ones but you just gotta weed through them to get to the good guys who actually want to have genuine conversations. Don’t give up, unless it gets to be too much.

Hi BrownEyes. Yes it seems to be and I would like to know when it did become the norm.....

I find it quite disrespectful and I'm done with him and I move on. I was married almost 30 years and I tried dating last fall and that was enough. Too exhausted right now to even think about starting and maintaining a relationship. I'm sure there are good ones so keep trying.

If this is how it goes I'm glad I'm married for 38 years! These boys are not being gentlemen are they?

Maybe instead of looking for a guy, you're young, work on you, for a better you...let the guys come to you...they are like hunters , like to do the chase....play the game, ha!

I wish you all the best.

May your day sparkle.

Dump trucks of groovy love, peace, light, joy and hugs for you!
