Increased openness and communication should progress slowly and naturally based on any connection.
Key here.
I don't know anything about OP in real life to say one way or the other, but the men I've known who are similar to what he describes with the latching on early.. were men who were like that with any woman they started talking to.
No secure person is truly compatible with and connected to every single person they go on a date with. Coming on strong to someone new when y'all haven't genuinely developed a natural connection says to her, "I'm interested in anyone who will give me a chance." It shows you're desperate and that you're not actually looking for someone you're compatible with. You're just looking for someone.

You can be that way and ultimately find a long term relationship, but it’ll fail. Bitches don’t like being with simps. They’ll only love you if they can respect you
You can either change, or roll with it, but plan for lots of failure.
Harsh, but true.
Even if you find a woman who is willing to be with you and constantly reassure your insecurities for a while, it eventually becomes a self fulfilling prophecy if you continue with it. Reassuring an insecure person is draining and unsexy.

This is the answer. Not everyone wants that freedom but it’s amazing. Do what you want when you want how you want. It’s incredible.

if you feel comfortable expanding on that- what life choices led you to this?
Choices to ruin good relationships when they were within my grasp.
Choices moving forward to not trust myself to enter a meaningful relationship.
Choices to keep people at more than arm's length because it is safer for me and them.

I’ve probably been like that with more than half the women I’ve talked to since divorce

as long as you are the center of your own attention to this degree, things are likely to remain the same...it can come across as desperation...

You are 100% right. I just don’t have faith I can change my stripes. I’m on the backside of my 30’s. I have so much emotional baggage. One day I’ll feel relatively complete, the next I’m broken. I hate living this life. I have fallen back into bad habits. Going to bed early. Mentally checked out at work. Not eating much.
Being lonely is probably the least of my worries. I’m all over the place. I probably shouldn’t be here either.

Change comes from the heart. And then change goes to the brain. And then change becomes habit.

The problem is rarely the problem. The majority of harm is caused by you, in your head, by your thoughts. The minority, is caused by the reality, what actually happens and what is the outcome. Most of the time the problem isn’t the problem. The way you think about the problem is the problem.

There are plenty of ways to occupy your time in this situation. Problem with some is to find the motivation to explore those things. I would like to find a woman to just get some physical relief. But I’m just not even ready for that yet….the one thing I am NOT doing is sitting here feeling sorry for myself.

Get a mail order bride and call it quits. Problem solved.
My boy could get all the pussy he wanted. Had enough of american women and married a Ukrainian woman that actually pushed him further in life than he wouldve on his own. She is cool AF and good to him! Kinda materialistic but he can afford it. Hes happy, shes happy! Win win
