There's this guy I met on a Discord chat with my friends..
He likes me a lot, I can tell he's teetering on the decision to ask me to date him...
Today we started talking about dating. I told him that right now my career comes first and I will consider dating once I am stable in my career. He's basically trying to convince me that "anytime is good for dating" and that all that matters is "love". But I told him that I want to date a guy who has goals, not necessarily a millionaire, but someone who has goals for their lives that they want to achieve.
This guy, said that he's handicapped so he can't set goals. :| I told him that ANYONE can set goals unless they are a vegetable.
I also told him that right now, I want to focus on my career. He was extremely persistent that my career can go hand in hand with a relationship. Which, I told him was not true. I've tried to tell him that I want my career to be stable first, but he kept telling me that I was "closing myself off" to opportunities.
I felt a little weirded out by it because I knew that he wanted to date me...
I am not attracted to him, I don't want to hurt his feelings, he is very sweet and kind, but I don't think he would make a good partner for me. For one, he's on the other side of the country... I am NOT willing to move to be with him... and I don't think he's willing to move to my state.
I just don't know what to do.
I told him politely that I didn't think it would work between us. I don't do long distance relationships, and I don't want to be with someone who doesn't have goals or aspirations.... I don't want to "Take care" of someone.
I feel so bad because he's such a sweet person... but first and foremost, I am NOT attracted to him.
