The guy I was meant to go on a date with cancelled because he was too anxious

At first he lied and said it was work, but later he confessed he is a really anxious person and is seeking help for that. He assured me he wants to meet and was really apologetic.

My initial reaction is to try and help him, but I do this so often and end up with projects rather than partners.

I'm so conflicted rn.

I can see both sides of this, as I'm sure you can too.

I could deal with someone being anxious if they're working on it, but he lied at first. And no offense to men, but they'll say they're working on something when they really want you to fix it and make it all better. They'll have you all mushified to them, then the issues creep in... You know how it goes from there 😂

That's a tough call. What about him interested you?

@MarbleMarvel Yeah you got it. 😂

He is just a nice, enthusiastic, chatty guy. Easy to talk to. Not like the others who ive been talking to. Its been hard work 😪

@Kuronekko that's a tough call. Of course having anxiety doesn't make someone less worth it. But once you've taken on a few "projects" you just want someone who can handle their own shiz 😂

Oh yeah online dating is like pulling teeth outta those mfers 😆

@MarbleMarvel yeah, just once Id like to date someone who has done therapy, or I will take that on.
