How do you find the middle ground between protecting yourself and being too guarded/emotionally unavailable?
My past two relationships had not-so-fun endings.
My (29M) second to last one ended on our anniversary. We exchanged gifts, then she broke up with me and I was shocked. I got back out there a few months later, met a great woman, it progressed well, she met my family, then she dumped me via text an hour after I was just with her and we had even gotten intimate that day.
I'm taking time to myself before I get back out there as those two breakups have definitely been a hit to my confidence and made me realize I over-invest. I am currently in therapy too. I'm a giver at heart, I don't want to change that but I also don't want to be super guarded and emotionally unavailable.
I want advice on finding the middle ground from those who don't hesitate to show interest and are forward with their intentions.
