Either she is depressed, or she's just an unpleasant, cold person. Either way, do you want to be involved with someone like that?

Yup, agree. She is not into the OP. She just doesn't like him/ isn't interested.

Well, that kind of sounds like she doesn't really want to be out with you. Who knows why. If she's been like this from the beginning, it almost seems like (to me) that she felt pressured to go out with you, and her heart isn't really in it.


If she was 'normal' at the start of the relationship, and this unhappiness is a new thing, I'm wondering if she's met someone else...or...she's just not into the relationship anymore. She might be on the verge of breaking it off with you.


I know, for me, I wouldn't put up with that kind of behavior for very long. Especially if this is a newer relationship. In a committed relationship, I would have more patience, and try to help my partner through it, or call out the BS or whatever. But in a newer relationship, or casual dating...I wouldn't deal with a pity party for very long, and I wouldn't let myself be disrespected for very long at all.

This. She's stuck in a bad situation perhaps, you're not in a good situation and because of whatever reason she's definitely not into you. Just move on.

Some people are more reserved in their affect. I have known and know both men and women who are quite reserved in their expression of just about every emotion.


I know an older man who doesn't smile much or express much emotion. But, that guy is one of the most gentle, warm, kind, loving and giving people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. His wife, of 60+ years, says it's hard to know when he is happy, sad or mad because he always has the same facial expression.

Not everyone feels like another person completes them or makes, rather than adds to his or her happiness. Each person is an individual; what adds to one person's happiness isn't necessarily what does the same for another.

What I'm trying to say, if this woman isn't a content person within herself and pleasant in her interactions with others on a platonic level, she's not likely to be so with a romantic partner. She might suffer from depression, which can manifest itself in the ways that you describe. Sometimes when a person is going through a dark period, no one or no thing is going to make that darkness go away. Sometimes, it's really *is* them and not you.

You might consider doing a "hard pass" on becoming involved with this woman or at least taking things very slowly with her, unless you're prepared to deal with this sort of behavior in a partner.

Are we talking about a real person here, or just a hypothetical?

What are the details of this relationship? You offered none.

It means they are probably not going to be the best person to be around if your goal is to be a happy person yourself. You’re either going to spend your time trying to make them happy, or spend your time trying to be happy.

Given this, what's your attraction to her?
