a guy reached out to me saying he was interested in dating me. after 3 months of getting out of my last relationship i thought, why not? I told him we'd have to get to know each other a little better and he agreed. at first I noticed some red flags but I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. we talked for 4 days, and he got upset i didn't immediately trust him (not his exact words). I tried to explain I'm looking for compatability by asking him these questions and I don't think there's anything wrong with being cautious especially since we're strangers. he got upset that i disagreed with him and said bye. I guess I dodged a bullet. rather waste 4 days than a full year like i did my ex. I think I've given up on finding a partner, I'm lonely but being lonely is better than being with these assholes ive been meeting

Good for you for standing your ground Compatibility is key and clearly he wasn’t it.
You’re so strong for sticking to your boundaries. It’s better to be alone than with someone who doesn’t respect you.
It’s tough being lonely but you’re doing the right thing by not settling for less than you deserve
that guy sounds like he wasn’t ready for someone who knows what they want.
You’re so right being cautious is smart especially after what you’ve been through. His loss
Honestly you dodged a major bullet there. Better 4 days than a year for sure.
You'll find someone who truly understands you and care about how you feel rather than making you feel forced to do something or say something you don't want to do or say. More power to you.
