I also "always" mess up. I went on several dozen dates last winter until summer when I kinda stopped trying. Then, all of a sudden, this girl messages me and asks to meet for coffee. I went there, we talked and I wanted to say goodbye, but she asked to hang out in another place and we kissed.
Similarly, about two years ago I thought there was nobody I wanted to see on tinder, but then I matched with this girl I thought was a bot at first, because her pictures were so good. We text for weeks and eventually she becomes my fwb for about a years.
I'm saying, don't lose hope and don't stop trying. Maybe switch things up or do something else, but never stop trying.
Thanks for the good wishes, too :3
