    My default response to this is to be blunt with the person and tell them I already have enough friends, or "I'm not looking for another friend: I'm looking for companionship at the level above friendship."

    It gets the message across.

    Pull out a yearbook, completely buried in signatures. "As you can see, I'm full up in the friend department. However I'll be sure to let you know if there's an opening in the future."

    Then don your trilby hat in a dramatic rolling motion, pull out your $600 custom vape rig and ride off into the night.

    @DouglasDanger

    Your anxiety sounds a lot like my ex girlfriend's anxiety, which is to say: just because someone isn't great at communicating with you doesn't mean they don't care about you. This is especially true if you don't live together and your main method of talking is over text. SMS is unreliable, so you might consider setting a time to have actual phone calls with one another. That helps a lot, trust me.

    Aside from that, all I can tell you is that your anxiety is lying to you. Your anxety is always lying to you. Always. Anxiety is not your friend. It is not something that keeps you honest in the face of undue optimism; it poisons you when operating under an otherwise pragmatic mindset. Do. Not. Trust. Your. Anxiety.

    Get that tattooed on the inside of your forearm and refer to the tattoo as necessary.

    My default response to this is to be blunt with the person and tell them I already have enough friends, or "I'm not looking for another friend: I'm looking for companionship at the level above friendship."

    It gets the message across.

    I've found, though, that those two phrases are usually the same message. One is from someone who needs to be ultra cautious about what they say or else get verbally/physically assaulted, the other usually comes from someone who doesn't have to worry about that.

    So my girlfriend and I have been going out for a few weeks

    Zero issues so far, She is rad as hell and we have had a great time.

    Our first date she came over and we watched a wrestling PPV and ate pizza. Second date we went bowling got kinda drunk and went back to her place and watched Big Trouble in Little China.

    We originally weren't gonna have Valentine's plans since she already made some with friends before we started going out but she had some free time in the middle of the day and I have the day off so she came over and we exchanged gifts and watched Godzilla and ate pizza rolls. I got her a big stuffed dinosaur eating a heart (she loves dinosaurs as much as I do) and she got me:

    a fucking Dragon Ball

    Life is PRETTY GOOD, my friends
