Thanks, feeling very rejected at the moment after disclosing on the 4th date. I was a nervous wreck and bolted out of the car after sharing. I think I am going to wait longer next time until I am sure the feelings are really clear and strong on both sides, but of course before we take our clothes off. I also keep this a secret from mostly everyone and I think that adds to my shame. I need to be more accepting of it. Your story encouraged me!

I feel your pain. What you wrote is exactly what happened to me 5 nights ago. We had gone on 4 really fun dates and spent hours on the phone in easy fun connection. We both drank a lot as we were in a dance venue and knowing we would bedrinking made me feel it would give me liquid courage for later. When he pulled up in front of my house I blurted it out, got nervous and as I quickly exited the car I told him to think about it. He kissed me and told me he would call the next day, but didn’t. So I was dealing with that plus a hangover. I decided to reach out later by text to ask what he might be thinking or if he had any questions. He told me it was too hard and he would call the next day. Well, he did call and talked and talked as if nothing was different for 45 minutes! I kept waiting and finally truly got sleepy and said I needed to go to sleep. Since then, nada. I feel the worst part is that I delivered the information so badly. I am mad at myself for that part. I feel shameful.
