I got Tinder a month ago and rarely get past 3 or 4 replies before I'm ghosted. Half the time my matches don't even reply to the first message.

I got talking to one girl for about 3 weeks and we arranged to meet, after I'd brought it up a few times, decided about a week in advance. Day before she "was thinking and she didn't really feel like dating anyone at the moment". That was a couple days ago and we haven't talked since. I was always the one carrying the conversations and I'm just not bothered to message her again.

There was a girl who liked me for ages in secondary school. I came to like her too but I was so fucking retarded. First time she asked me out and retarded 13yo me "didn't know her" and said no despite a friend of mine telling me to say yes. 16 months later she goes again, in class where no one was doing anything. She and a friend of hers turn around and the friend says "'her name' loves you". I was caught off guard and just froze. They thought I didn't want to, and was too shy to say anything after, ever. That is the single biggest regret of my life and I still hate myself for it (I'm 18 1/2 now). She's been going out with another guy for 2.5 yrs now but we still talk a good bit. I'm still so fucking annoyed at myself, she is legit perfect idk how she ever liked me.

If you actually read all that thanks I guess. Idk if I ever told the full story before. It still feels raw after all these years.

I'm about the start college and hope I'll have more luck dating there, but probably won't knowing me.
