Angel1111 Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Good, I'm glad Saturday didn't happen and I'm glad you updated us because I was thinking about you and how you were doing. The reason I'm glad is because I'd rather that he 'forget' and you not go there because that's a little risky for someone you barely know. It doesn't matter what your friend thinks she knows about this guy, he doesn't show very good character at all. So I'm glad you didn't end up getting burned even worse by him using you and then making you feel like crap. He's playing the silent game right now because in the past when he has done that, you would break that silence. I think he expects you to do it again. I'm glad you're leaving it alone. Maybe he'll learn some humility. I hope the new guy works out. You won't get hurt if you start paying attention to the signs - they were all over the place with the other guy, you just didn't see them for some reason. When something doesn't feel right to you, don't discount that as unimportant. Your instincts are very sharp but if you make a habit of ignoring them, they'll become less and less tuned in.
Capricciosa Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Sometimes it really is better for all concerned that the date is canceled or forgotten. I had a feeling when I read your post that it was going to happen. He is a type, and his behaviour is typical of a guy who is stringing you along but has no real interest. I've encountered a few, and I've learned to read the signs.
Author allieapplesauce Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 yup you guys were right. i guess i just was liking the attention to get me over the ex that i really really liked and got hurt by...even tho im not desperate for a bf i miss the feelings i had before...like not feeling restless and like crap but im glad it didnt happen either. now i think about hte kid and i cant think of him in any romantic way. ive learned from the last one. i just feel like i cant trust any of them. the other guys a bit quiet but he opens and closes the car door for me. he made me dinner. he's kept the plans. he likes to do outdoorsy things and go to the park which is cool cause no one ever wants to do that. question tho. im okay with this for now. i think we've hung out like 6 times now. the closest we're at is like sitting on the couching during the movie and sitting close/touching but not like cuddling...and hug at the end but thats it. im not going to do anything and i wanna be cautious. actually it was 4 mo before anything with the ex so...feel like im on the same path again...i suppsoe thats ok? or i dont even know how normal that is....i think we've both been hurt and wanna be careful? i dont know what to do. seems like hes interested in some way. this is kinda a thing meant to be looking for a date, not just like hey were friends...but met up as a "date" thing... so well go slow and try not to get burned. im just so sick of guys! my friend is having a problem too...i know they love games, but i dont like em!
