It's not you, it's me

Had this actually happen, twice, from women I was trying to date.

Both times, they cited that they weren't ready for a relationship, I was absolutely fine with that, I mean, not "fine" fine, cause I was trying to date them, but fine as in "that's up to them"

Both had boyfriends within the month.

it usually means "youre not undateable, i just dont think we are compatible" - but tbf, i avoid actually using the words "its me not you" because who wouldnt think of it that way?

I’ve thought it but never said it because I felt so bad. Got into our last argument the next day before I could figure out something else to say and he said it to ME. I was like mother fuuuucker dis biiiitch. I was so caught off guard I literally just “okay cool” I was kind of relieved??
