Starting to Date - Got "the call" yesterday.

BU from long distance relationship was late December, somewhat out of the blue. I live alone much of the time (kid in college, other kid with mom half the time) and in a city I just moved to and don't know many people. I get lonely.

I got on an dating app. I am taking it slow but have been seeing and talking to 3 ladies I am interested in. Not to be crass but I have a mental ranking on how I am connecting with them, attracted to them, etc. The number 2 lady has been distant lately. I got a text to call her and she said while I am an "amazing" guy she recently connected with a neighbor guy and wants to see where that goes. I totally respect her decision but it still hurts to have a woman let you go to be with a different man. Same thing my ex did after 5 years.

I am scared now that the number 1 lady will be telling me that soon. I really am into her but I am not seeing the same interest level from her or maybe I am in my head expecting to be disappointed.
