Dating : How to tell a guy I don’t want to talk so much
I (24, F) matched with a guy on Bumble. He seemed interesting but he likes to talk to me a lot. He’ll double message at times and I feel badgered with questions at times. I don’t like talking to people I match with on Bumble before we meet up. I’ve had experiences in the past where I liked how someone was online too much and absolutely couldn’t stand them in person so I try to limit online conversation until we meet. We finally set a day to meet and I told him « I have to go now, please let me know on *the day of the date* if you’re still up for it ». We said bye and the very next day he was back to wanting long conversations. How do i tell him I don’t like to talk too much on dating apps? Does anyone else feel this way about talking too much with matches?
I’m one if those guys that gets excited and talks too much before the date. This is good perspective for me. I’d just like the person to be honest and say « I’d rather we got to know each other in person rather than text ». Maybe just say that.
