mortensorchid Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I met a new person on a website the other day. He seems quite nice, we have talked via email, text message, and phone calls in the last few weeks. We have made plans to meet this Thursday evening. The problem? Well he seems a little TOO interested. I am not getting a sense of desperation from him. He seems perfectly friendly, but the texting is a little too much sometimes. I tell him I'm busy and can't talk right then, and he lays off when I say that. And I'm not playing hard to get either. I wonder sometimes if I have become so jaded and bitter that I don't know a genuinely good person when I encounter them. Ever think that? Well, I'll let the forum know if and when we get together what happens.
Virgo828 Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Thats crazy the same thing just happened to me over the weekend. I'm in the process of getting over someone and I met this guy at TGIF. Well we exchanged info and he started texting me everyday, calling me boo and good morning and good night. I don't know how to take this being that we me two weeks ago. He texted me saturday night asking to see me and I asked why so late and he got emotional saying "its been two weeks and I still havent seen you and if you dont have the time or arent interested just say so". Yuck dude get a grip its not that serious, in all honesty I would intiate things if I wanted to so why cant he see this and just chill out about things. That emotional outburst just turned me completely off. I texted him back saying he was trippin and I dont want to talk to him anymore tonight. He responded with "can I see you tonight" lol. I said no, he then texted me the next morning with "can we have lunch". So I too have become jaded like yourself, I think my ex has made it difficult for me to meet other people.
BlueHarvest Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Try to remember, guys need some sort of sign that you are interested. If he's texting too much just say your busy. Wouldn't hurt for you to actualy say or text something that would let him know you are genuinelly interested but your just very busy at the moment. @Virgo. Same thing but just remember, some guys have been burned in the past. They would rather you say "not interested" then to string them along.
Virgo828 Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 You know I was interested until he started laying it on thick. We texted and talked but when he wanted to see me it would be late at night or not the right time. Everything was all good on my emd until the emotional outburst. I will have a talk with him if he decides to text me again. @ Mortensorchid how did he respond after you told him you were busy. Did he back way off and let you come at him?
Author mortensorchid Posted October 8, 2008 Author Posted October 8, 2008 Yes, he does back off if I text him back saying "I'm busy". And now that I think of it, he does seem perfectly friendly and alright. I should not be so jaded, I have a sense of hope within me that someday somehow it could happen. Love, that is. I should be relaxed and just be. I'll update as to what happens.
