There are many things I don't understand in this world, but one of the things I especially don't understand is the minds of men.
You can do everything right: talk to him just the correct amount, flirt, send him cute snaps. But then it can be gone in an instant.
I am going to tell you a story that may or may not be true, but just sit here and listen, please.
I usually only use Tinder at school but decided to give it a shot at home, not planning on meeting up with anyone just to talk. Not really into those random hookups, I just like to talk and learn more about you.
I have been talking to this guy who we will call Ryan for about a month. He is very smart, he has a strong and wide vocabulary which I thought was sexy. I thought Ryan was interesting and fascinating, so I continued to talk to him. He would send me morning snaps usually of him and his guitar or dog.
We started texting, and I am not a big texter, I am usually one who loves phone calls. Ryan gave me a call and we talked for 2 hours, thinking it would be awkward. But instead, it went great we had intelligent discussions and were getting flirty with each other. He told me I was cute and sexy, and I told him he was sweet and intelligent and hot.
When we hung up the phone, I thought about him all night and how he was so nice and intelligent and how he was so different from any guy I had ever talked to. Usually, guys I talk to aren't good conversationalists, so this was a good change of pace.
Ryan and I texted the next day about vacation and possibly meeting up soon. It was great and we didn't talk too much, we talked just enough.
That night I snapped him but I noticed he never opened it, even the next day he hadn't opened it. As I am looking through Instagram, I search his name and notice that we don't follow each other anymore. Then go to Tinder and he had unmatched me. I texted him in the morning and he had never answered. Ryan had unadded me on Snapchat, unfollowed me on Instagram, unmatched me, and blocked my number.
I did nothing wrong. Boys don't make any sense. One second you can be interested in him and think that it was the same for him. But I was wrong. Boys are liars and have no emotion, they are uncomfortable creatures.
Lesson to learn here: Don't fall too fast and never give in too much to the flirting. Boys suck and you will find someone out there who treats you with respect.
This was not the first time boys have done this, in high school and college they are so immature so just wait a little bit before you fully give in.
