It's not 2018 anymore. Like
@Apollo Creed said you literally have to take things day by day. You have to realize that no matter what kinda feedback/energy you getting from a chick, she is liable to disappear or switch up at a moments notice. This is ESPECIALLY the case if youre dating a woman who is Generation Z. I cannot say it enough. These women are getting flown out, tricked on, DMed and liked on dating apps more than you realize and it is completely skewing their expectations of what it means to date or be in a relationship.
Coming out of my last relationship (which i talked about here a bit) in 2023, it honestly look me a while to adapt to how much things have changed and I have made strides lol but I am still learning. It's simply a different ball game now. For instance, back then women used to save your number. Now, it probably takes a solid 3 dates before a chick will even do that. They are all playing defense and expect you to chase/hound them. The ironic thing is the more you do that, they more youll turn them off. They are overstimulated and operating out of fear. Even the good girls who come from good upbringings are being indoctrinated by all the bullshyt pushed via reality TV and social networks. And then they probably got friends who are hoes/living that sensational lifestyle and thus influencing them.
So never feel like a chick is "yours" and take things day by day. Just enjoy the time you spend with a chick and try to smash. That "courting" shyt is dead.
