Looking back, perhaps my desperation to find someone to settle down with was far more visible than I thought, and scared off potential suitors.
There is actually a Sharon Jones song which perfectly captures this situation.
Sharon Jones: Be Easy
some people say
you gotta fight for a love that's true
climb every mountain
see every trial and tribulation through
but i'm here to tell ya
oooh that's only half the lesson
now if you want a girl to come to you
you gotta leave a little room for guessing
Whoa you just be easy baby
that girl'll come a runnin to you
if you just be easy baby
ahh she'll be easy too
don't you know it's just a fool plays the card
runnin a girl down like shes a game in a school yard
now if she waits
you should turn, let her alone
she'll come to you
just as sure as you're born
be easy baby
that girl'll come a runnin to you
if you just be easy baby
ahh she'll be easy too
don't you know a woman, no,
don't wanna man down on his knees?
runnin her down like a mouse after cheese
you got to be mellow if you want her affection
you get too excited, and she's off in another direction
so be easy baby
that girl'll come a runnin to you
if you just be easy baby
ahh she'll be easy too
be easy baby
that girl'll come a runnin to you
if you just be easy baby
ahh she'll be easy too

Love this Louie. I usually scare people off in the opposite manner. I usually push people away or don't tell people how I feel to the point where it drove my ex batty. I always come off "strange" to people I believe. But I just assume get online and discuss my problems to complete strangers than to be perceived as weak or fukced up to someone I know on the outside
