So I've been out a few times with someone who I think likes me. It's possible--not likely, but possible--that eventually, it may turn into a real relationship. He's smart, funny, easy to talk to (not a trivial thing for me), and amazingly, he's pretty attractive on top of all that. And for a while, I was really interested in him. Until I found out that he was interested in me. Then suddenly, I was repelled.
This seems to happen a lot (and by a lot I mean the very few times anyone's actually been interested in me). I like a guy, pine for a while, realize he likes me back, and suddenly feel repulsion toward him. I tried to ride this one out and give it a chance, but every time we go out I feel less and less excitement and more and more dread. I don't like it when he stands close to me or looks at me or even compliments me. Everything is right on paper, but it just doesn't feel right. I WISH I could enjoy this, I WISH I could just go with it and let it happen, but I can't.
I don't know what's wrong with me. It's hard enough being undesirable to most men; it's even worse being repelled by the select few who can actually stand me. =(
