"Have met a few in later life that have said that they really liked me when we were younger. Unfortunately I suffered from crippling shyness and would blush so badly that I never asked anyone out. " How did you get over the blushing? Or do you still blush alot? | |||
"Have met a few in later life that have said that they really liked me when we were younger. Unfortunately I suffered from crippling shyness and would blush so badly that I never asked anyone out. How did you get over the blushing? Or do you still blush alot?" I still do a bit but nowhere near the amount I used to. I actively avoided situations where there was a possibility of me blushing but I can control it a bit now with being more confident generally | |||

"There was one but I’m glad it didn’t go any further after she turned me down. Turns out she started dated a suspected rapist instead, so I look back on it as dodging a massive bullet. " I'm not getting thst, how did you dodge a bullet, surely she was the one who was unlucky in dating this person but how does that make her bad? Sorry if I'm missing something obvious here. | |||

" Sorry, let me explain a bit further. So I had known her for a while, we were “seeing” each other until this other bloke came onto the scene, so she drifted off with this other guy, fair enough I thought I’d leave it at that as these things happen. Fast forward a few months, and two of the guys ex’s accuse him of r*pe, went to court etc, but throughout she kept talking as though he was Saint Peter throughout, nothing anyone said to her, the warnings, the red flags etc got through to her, until he was found guilty. She tried to get things back on with me after that, which I said “No”, as it left a rather bad feeling about her ability to just “drop” someone for someone else quickly. | |||

" Still not seeing how she was the bullet dodged tbh. She's had a difficult time and if anyone's dodged a bullet it's her surely? How does the ex's behaviour make her the baddie, unless you're feeling aggrieved because she didn't stay with you. You put 'seeing' each other implying it wasn't serious. | |||

" I wouldn't say aggrevied, more, at the time, annoyed & upset because of being dropped so suddenly. As for the seeing part, at the time it did feel serious, I.e. we were meeting up often, doing pretty much everything in a relationship, bar the relationship title (It was a head mess, that I still remember). To me, it felt like a bullet dodged because of the sudden dropping, but I've moved on now (this was 7 years ago) | |||
