I have been messaging and talking to a potential partner who lives in the same state but 3 hrs away for 4 weeks. I came to the realization that the distance would be an issue and I really should only pursue potential partners in my city. So we talked tonight and I expressed my concerns. He stated that we shouldn’t worry so much about down the road and we can make it work. (We haven’t even met in person yet) I then mentioned that I wanted to start pursuing connections in my city. He then became upset and basically hung up on me. I feel awful. I’m analyzing everything and trying to see where I made mistakes so I don’t do it again. I don’t really have anyone to share this with so here I am. He is a sweet person so I feel awful for hurting him. But the way he responded also felt immature so maybe I dodged a bullet? Thanks for listening.
