New Guy is being distant already

He hasn't texted much in the last few days. He has a busy job, so I'm not tripping. Also I think his dad is having some health issues.

I messaged him this morning and told him it sounds like we've both had a rough week, and if he needs to cancel our date on Saturday I would understand.

Lately, I also feel like maybe it's for the best that I don't try to start any new relationships. I'm very depressed and su*cidal, and I don't see it going away any time soon. I definitely don't want to drag anyone else down into that just by association. I may not be here by next year. 🤷🏻‍♀

If you or a friend of yours is having suicidal thoughts, please visit Suicide Crisis Help Lines if you need someone to talk to.

@cherny I don't want to focus on myself to get healthier. I've been there and done that. I just want out at this point.

Maybe you have the right idea. Not starting a new relationship for while.

I think you are reading too much into it. He assured you that he wants to keep this relationship.

Dont do that, my depression makes me want to do the same thing. Like you dont deserve someone good in your life. Just assume he's busy, and then be the peace that he needs on Saturday. Be the refuge for each other. It will help get past this current depression episode. ❤

@LeGrotesque I understand that feeling I’ve been there many times. If you ever need to talk you can message me anytime if you like. It may be hard to believe and see right now but things can get better.

It may be best for you to focus on only yourself right now. Adding a new relationship will add more expectations and second guessing. Hope you feel better soon.

@xNicolax1 there's nothing to focus on. I'm on my way out.
