Was I Too Pushy?

2 years ago

Question:

I met a man who is eight years older than me on tinder, who I really like. We’ve been talking for two weeks and I really love his approach to me and our conversations. He asked me to meet up and we agreed to see each other last Tuesday at 7 PM— we decided to pick the place later.

When it was Tuesday he wrote to me saying that he’s super busy because of unexpected meetings at work and asked me if I had time at the end of the week. He apologized and said that for sure we meet up then, which would be better anyway because he’d be more relaxed from work I would have more time for me.

I thought, 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦.

I told him I was free on Friday and Saturday.

He said, “Maybe Friday.”

I said, “What does ‘Maybe Friday’ mean?”

He said, “If we both have time.”

Then, I informed him that I don’t play these games.

I’ve never heard from him again.

In our conversations he had told me that I needed to be more relaxed in the beginning of a relationship because otherwise, I am checking out everything with the person and not letting things just happen.

But I find myself still into him . . . Even though we never met. He really checked off all my boxes in terms of the ideal guy.

I am a very strong willed person and usually consider myself mature as well. So why do I feel so bad about this whole situation?

I felt as if I did something wrong I was pushing too much. Did I?
