How can one person feel chemistry and the other can't?

If one extreme fails, they go to another.

I'd settle for honest "flirting".

Anything to show we're getting somewhere. I've given up on women who when you start to put the romance on they avoid and deflect. Aw man, now the subject of anything sexual never even squeaks out.


I can picture stripping down to my birthday suit and her going "yeah?"

I meet a woman, get to like a woman and I think we have chemistry!



Her reaction...

I experienced this imbalance with my recent ex. From the beginning it was clear she felt much more strongly for me. I tried to end it early on, but for a variety of reasons we got back together. I finally couldn't do it anymore and broke up with her. It was painful, but in the long run it was best for both of us. I told her often that I worried I wasn't experiencing the intense emotions that she was, and that this wasn't fair to her, but she refused to believe it. I think she was in denial. This was NOT a healthy relationship at all.
