Sometimes it’s about you; sometimes it’s not
In dating, it’s easy to take things personally if there are problems or hiccups. Sometimes the guy you’re seeing does or says something that is a reflection of his attitude toward you, and you take offense.
But often his behavior has nothing to do with you. It’s harder to realize this when he attributes positive feelings to you that would be impossible to come by after only a meeting or two.
I learned this when a man I went out with once told me he loved me at the end of the date. It happened again yesterday.
