So I (25M) met a girl at an event recently and it was like sparks flew. It was the first girl I had met, in the small town I had recently moved to, that I genuinely connected with. She came from a similar background as me, and had grown up knowing the same struggles as well. We bonded instantly, as she is the type of person that always needed to do something and that meant hanging out with me nonstop every day. It was going very well. I took her on dates and small adventures within a few days and it just all felt right. I went for a kiss on one of the earlier dates and she was hesitant. Then later on after more dates she opened up to the idea and we kissed and whatnot. Here’s the problem: just as things got more serious and intertwined, she backed off suddenly. She then explained she had just gotten out of a long relationship and thought she was ready but is not. I reassured her that I understood and that I probably shouldnt hangout with her. When I tried to break off all contact she insisted that she still wanted to be friends. I reluctantly figured why not. I dont have many ppl I relate to in this town anyway. Heres the crazy part: we continued hanging out like we were before.. everyday… just without specifically romantic activity going on. Fast forward a few months, and I grew even more fond of her. She showed me that she was a keeper. That she took relationships seriously, and is a loyal girl. That shes very caring. Just the best soul i’ve met in years. She recently moved 2 hours away to a bigger city, hoping to get closer to her family’s city. I haven’t felt this way for someone in a while and yet, it all happened when I wasnt even looking for it. Now, i’m left here with a void in my chest missing something I didnt even technically have. It pains me that I met the first girl in a while that my automatic thought was to wife her up. Ive never been this way. Idk if its me getting older or what but can anyone else relate to this? Am i being dumb for feeling this way?
