Oh. Well. After only ever getting attention from guys who are already taken and looking for some fun, I guess it was too good to be true. I've been depressed for a few days now because this seems to have crystallized my suspicions that I'll never be man enough to attract an SO but that I'm perfectly suited for some alpha's harem. I dunno if I want to give in to my nature and meet up with him or reject it and stay unhappy and alone.
