I don't feel like I'm being teased by anyone.
I am seriously disappointed with how this turned out. How could she date me for a couple of months if she doesn't like me as more than a friend?
Man, and like I said, really thought I was doing well dating a 24-year-old. She turned out to be as immature, inconsiderate and flighty as any 19 year old I could have dated.
When does sanity start, people? Will I have to start dating 30-year-old women? Hmm, I've got a cousin whose wife is 12 years older than him..
I'm going to be brutally honest with you. You're not going to like it and you're not going to believe me (you'd protest until your fingers cramp), so it doesn't really matter, but I'll put it out there anyway.
You are not as mature as you think you are (Right now, you're saying to yourself: "But you don't know me, Daisy.") Overwhelmingly from what I've seen you post, you seem right about your age (And now you're saying: "But I just fool around on here. I'm not like this in real life.").
Yes, you believe yourself to be more mature than others your age. Guess what? The majority of people your age believe the same thing. I believed it of myself when I was your age. Then, at 23 or so when I had graduated college and had my first job, I thought: "Wow, how stupid I was then! NOW I'm really mature. *smugface*" By the time I was 30, I realized that I had still been a relatively immature idiot at 23-24.
And the thing is, I'm not alone. You'll hear this same story from many, many people over 30. (I know, I know... you're different than the rest of us... you really
are more mature. Just wait 5 years... and then another 5.)
Further, you shouldn't be surprised that a 24-year-old who dated you turned out to be immature - and yes, she does seem immature for her age. In general, a girl that age would be immature if she's attracted to a 19-year-old.
Like I said, I'm sure you'll argue... but I won't.
In all seriousness, my advice is to stop worrying about how mature you are, stop worrying about having a 'relationship' and have fun. Meet people - both female and male - make friends, learn about the world, life and all that.
Enjoy!
As you all well know I'm very shy, I went through a big crush in H.S. and was harsly rejected and I had a difficult time getting over it. Am I overlysensitive? Perhaps, but 'tis the way I am. It was really hard for me to muster up the balls to be this open with this girl and pursue her, and for her to respond in kind and then a few weeks later be like "oh I didn't really feel that way" is ****ing cruel. What a psycho. I had to vent and well I don't have friends to go to and I don't think my family would understand.
welcome back to the pure awesomness of the single life. More free time, no nagging, no trying to impress...more money to yourself and no one holding you back.
