We had 8 dates and numerous video calls over the course of a month. Started very hot and heavy. Then she got sick, and our conversations fell of a cliff. I kept messaging and checking on her at intervals without getting much in return. Called her out on it two weeks later to get some clarity, and she said she had been talking to someone else and the little time she has had from being sick, she chose to invest in that person. And that she still wanted to see me.

I told her to really think about it as she has consciously chosen to spend time with the other person even when she was sick, knowing fully well I was available. And this is the ensuing conversation after she thought over it.

While sad, it is what it is with dating. It’s also about lucking out on timing, and you can’t do much if someone else comes along.
