What do you do when guys want to sleep with you, but don’t want to date you? I keep getting stuck on that distinction. There’s enough interest for something physical, but it doesn’t seem to extend to the relationship I want.
Then comes the question I don’t particularly like admitting: Is it because I’m ugly?
I know that may sound confusing alongside the fact that they want to sleep with me. It feels confusing from here, too. Their interest doesn’t settle the insecurity. Somehow, I still end up wondering whether there’s something about me that makes dating me less appealing.
I don’t have a neat explanation for what they want, and I don’t want to pretend I do. I’m trying to understand what to do with the gap between their interest and mine.
If you’ve been in this position, what did you do? How did you handle wanting a relationship when the people interested in you only wanted something physical?
