Hi Ladies,
Just a heads-up about someone named Prasheen (on both Hinge and Bumble). He can come across as warm and engaging at first, talking about the future, showing interest but once you initiate real conversations or express emotional clarity, you’re suddenly seen as “rushing” or “controlling.”
He personally spoke about how communication with his ex and other people where he thinks he knows he is right (he joked about this).
He then very candidly spoke about how this one woman was obsessed with him after two dates. That she thought they were perfect and basically forced him to continue to date her. She sent him messages, emails asking if they could try again as they were meant for each other.
First, I asked him when we connected on Bumble if the woman actually said that verbatim? He said no, but paraphrasing.
Second, I told him, why and how would anyone force you to do anything? You’re a grown adult. Not some 5 year old unable to make a choice for yourself.
Third, that it looked like she genuinely was putting herself out there. Not in a manipulative way. But shooting her shot.
I’ve personally experienced this cycle with my ex so I could clearly see how he called this woman obsessive but in fact he was the one.
This cycle: interest, future talk/love-bombing, emotional distance, then being made to feel like they were the problem. It’s classic dismissive avoidant behavior.
Please just stay mindful and trust your instincts.
