pandagirl Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 I went a blind semi-date tonight. My friend wanted me to meet her friend who is moving here. I suspected there was some matchmaking going on, but I was going into it more as a friendly thing. As soon as I met him though, it was clear that is was indeed A Date. Totally nice guy. We're in the same industry. He's smart, successful and sweet. We ended up hanging out for hours, but I wasn't feeling the romantic chemistry on my end (personality differences, no physical attraction, etc). He was dropping clear hints that he liked me, saying how I was pretty and smart and a lot of touching me on my arm/hand/back. I am always nice to people, maybe too nice. However, I am NOT a flirty person. I don't clearly flirt with someone, unless I am interested, but I understand that my behavior of listening, conversing, being nice, being interested in what a person is saying, et al, can be interpreted as being interested. At the end of the night, he asked me out again. And I said, yes, even though I didn't want to accept. I like him as a friend, but personality wise, he's just not my type! He's very neurotic, type A. There was just no romantic chemistry for me. So, now I feel really bad. I will go out with him again, because I already accepted, but I know it's not going to go anywhere... And since he is a friend of a friend, I feel like a jerk! Am I leading him on by doing so? I just don't want to hurt his feelings.
iwanttolive Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Pandagirl.. Im feeling the exact same thing as you are :lmao: I don't know if it's a good thing, but I honestly told him that I have no chemistry with him. He gives me the impression that he's a pushover and it kills everything. At the same time I feel disappointed with myself cos I alwiz fall for cocky n chauvinistic. When will I grow out of it??
