Hello, thank you for playing the game!

What you're describing sounds like the result of lower affection the first two times you tried to start a route - nothing changes in the Dr. Sharpe conversation depending on affection, but you can only get on a route if your schedule is right and if you've made enough right choices with the patient whose route you chose. I hope that clears things up, because the choice you made differently shouldn't affect anything.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the game <3

I'm not the creator, and I know this comment is old but I've played this quite a lot and it sounds like you just didn't pick the best choices. A little tip is that if you picked the best option possible with a patient you often get a heart of their colour pop up on your screen, tho not every interaction has a "heart option". I hope this helps you if you decide to keep playing!
