| Jun 26, 2019 at 1:00 | comment | added | schaedelkeks | So I decided to write a letter, put all I wanted to say in there. I sent her the latter. Now for myself I did everything I could, and for my own sake I will have to get into the mood of "It's her loss". If she wants to talk, I will be there. But I won't skip new avenues that might open up from now on. I am still thinking which answer to accept, since both seem to be going into the right direction. | |

| Jun 16, 2019 at 5:39 | comment | added | schaedelkeks | @NiceGuy Is she trying to avoid you and use phd as an excuse? I consider this as a possibilty. But she told me about this beeing a dream of her right when I meet her. And at least from my perspective in our last meetings we both seemed to have a good time and conversations. | |

| Jun 15, 2019 at 14:13 | comment | added | schaedelkeks | Thank you for the edit! I think if I use the wrong words it might backfire on my intention. As you said I cannot force her to do something. So I don't want to say it in a way that might seem as to presure her into one result. I just want to go over her concerns together, instead of getting told the results of her considerations. | |
| Jun 15, 2019 at 12:31 | comment | added | avazula | Hi there! Welcome on IPS. I allowed myself to edit your question a bit because we can't help you with how to convince someone to do something - we can't force people, which is why I rephrased it into "how to tell her that I believe its possible to date while being a researcher". Feel free to edit it if I got you wrong :) also, could you tell us why you think simply telling her what you said in your post wouldn't work? | |
