I really care about this girl

Our first date went well she even kissed me first

On our second date she said our views on love dont match She feels I love too intensely and am too passive and that she ends up taking the lead in the relationship

I spent a whole week pleading with her to give us another chance promising I could show her Im capable of being different

Now she’s agreed to meet again

Im thinking of drinking a bit so I can let go of my insecurities and act more confident

Do you think that approach makes sense

pic above is us
i am 23 she is 24

She’s 24 and I’m 23.
I’m short at 5'8, and she was tall at 5'11.

She broke up with me because I was too clingy, overly romantic, and made her the center of my world.

Do you think I look better or worse than her?
