iwanttolive Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Everything was great.. Until.. He was eating a really greasy burger with all the patty juice flowing through his finger. My friend asked him about his job. Instead of explaining to her, he took out his wallet from his pocket with his greasy finger to pull out his namecard. That kills everything, i really got put off by his bad etiquette! Can't he just act cool instead of nervously trying to grab his wallet? Am I being too harsh? His body language portrays him as lacking confidence in carrying himself..
Stockalone Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 How about telling your friend that it is impolite to bother other people while they eat. In case you really can't stand your bf anymore, set him free so he can find someone who appreciates him and does care about more than how cool he is and how impressed her girlfriends will be when they meet him.
Author iwanttolive Posted August 17, 2008 Author Posted August 17, 2008 My friend was only striking a conversation with him. She just asked him what he does in his job, just a casual get to know each other conversation. He's not my bf yet, he's after me.

If he is too shy and not cool enough for your taste, then tell him you are not interested.
HokeyReligions Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 The way I'm picturing what you wrote would put me off to. it doesn't matter how shy his is, if he'd been brought up with any manners he would have at least used his napkin to wipe off his fingers first!! Then I bet he didn't wipe them off before he picked up his greasy food again either Ew! Those manner just make me think how dirty the sex would be if your relationship ever progressed that far. And I mean dirty as in dirt-on-the-floor, not naughty! It also made me think that his food was far more important to him than paying much attention or getting involved in a conversation with you and your friend. That is NOT cool IMO. Not when you are pursuing somone and trying to get to know them especially.
Suiyobi Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 This, my friends, is why "being yourself" isn't quite the advice that it's all cracked up to be.
Mahatma Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 he's after me. That comment puts me off. As for him, maybe he was just nervous at the time. You will have to just forget about the burger thing, but the card I can somewhat understand. If he continues doing things like that you can indicate you don't like it, or you can move on since hes the only one trying to make a relationship according to your comment.

whichwayisup Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Sounds like he REALLY enjoyed that greasy burger and nothing was gonna stop him from eating it, including answering a question. It's kind of funny actually..
