I met a guy who is incredibly&sincerely nice. I got suspicious&I asked him why he was being nice to me. He got hurt/put off by the question. How do I fix this&has anyone else self-sabotaged like this?

Hmm maybe simply explain why you asked. I imagine it might be because of the past or something you experienced before so just be honest and maybe explain why you asked. If he's so off put by it and can't move on then he isn't right in the first place I think.

Question that could belong here or in the Relationships bowl:

How do women prefer to be turned down if the guy they’re pursuing is not interested. I know men have the capacity to deal with rejection poorly, and I’m not suggesting otherwise. But in my anecdotal experience , women take the gentle “no thanks, not interested” poorly.

So was talking to this girl (we’re both mid late twenties) i met thru mutual friends and we hung out a few times/ texted a lot.

Recently found out I’m going to be going back to the same city in 6mo and theres a good chance I’ll run into her consistently since mutual friend groups/events. I dont want it to be awkward everytime…advice?

My sister and I have recently both come to the realization that our parents guilt us into spending time with them or visiting them and the guilt causes us both to shut down.

We’ve both noticed this shift in our relationship with our parents after graduating from college and starting our own adult lives. Continued
