I got some interesting feedback from my last blog post R.I.P. Boy, Bye  and wanted to share it as I found it interesting and somewhat insightful.

From Men

From Women

One woman excused him because of his career and schedule and thought I should take that into account.

Another woman said the following:

Another woman said if it’s not easy, it’s not worth it, referring to the complications with scheduling a first date.

It felt like the majority of men were more forgiving and understanding and the majority of women were harsher, more critical, and quicker to make judgements about his character.

Now that it’s had some space and time to breathe, I feel I was pretty harsh, but I also believe sometimes you just have a gut feeling about something and you should listen to it. Given that I felt badly due to things he said or didn’t do before we even went on a first date, I think for the time being, I made the right choice to not reschedule the date. Still curious to know his whole take or perspective on this because as I said previously, I imagine it’s very different from that of my own.
