On a losing streak. How to keep motivation?
Couple months ago I downloaded Hinge and got an accumulated 50 or so matches over those 3-4 months. Most never responded or ghosted quickly, but I had a solid 20 that responded.
Went on 3 first dates. No seconds. Everyone else ghosted. One girl said she had a lot going on with her new job and moving into a new house so she wasn't in the right space to date, but why string me along for two weeks and waste my time, but whatever.
Second girl spent a little over 2 months flaking repeatedly on the second date. Shes a therapist and teacher so shes really busy. Then yesterday she says she's seeing someone else and is technically still single, but is gonna pursue that, but that doesn't make sense if she doesn't have time to date and literally couldn't even fit in the second date where's this random guy gonna fit? And how does a new random guy disqualify a known guy you've been building toward. Anyway.
Third girl I'm still texting we'll see where it goes.
Two other girls I got their Instagrams. One has been in an out of town. The other is also never free and is with her family on the days she's off work. She's off Wednesday so I'll see if she's actually free this week. The other girl is back in town and we have a date scheduled for Sunday. Hopefully this isn't flake number 10,000.
Guess I have a lot of questions. How do I stop the flakes? How do I better fit into busy women's schedules? How do I keep motivation when I'm basically going 2 and 50 right now? Numbers game? Just keep shoveling?
