pandagirl Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 I had a wake up call today -- this guy I'm dating? He's just not that into me... Not that I'm extremely smitten by him, but I did see potential there. I'm not a high maintenance girl, but I do require the occasional phone call or ANYTHING so I know someone is interested in me and worth my time. He sporadically calls and asks me out last minute -- this is all consistent behavior from him from the time we met. When we're together, it's like we're glued at the hip and act very couple-y, but outside of that, I get nothing. He hasn't been on the dating site we met him for the last month, but that doesn't really mean anything. I'm just going to try to see other people and not invest in him, emotionally or physically. Next!
D-Lish Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Hey Panda!! I'm not a fan of the last minute calls for dates. I always blow them off. It stands to reason that if someone is truly interested, they will make plans in advance! I think it's good to have some back up dates planned. Chances are that as soon as he notices you are less available and less responsive- he'll come on stronger...lol.
Isolde Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 I'm sorry it's not working as you'd hoped panda. Glad to hear you're not too upset about it, though. You're one of the smarter and more mature posters here, when it comes to realizing what you want and deserve.
Author pandagirl Posted July 15, 2009 Author Posted July 15, 2009 Admittedly, I am kind of bummed out about this, though I know I will live and just be fine. He isn't a bad guy at all, and he's been nothing nice to me, but I just need more. I still can't get rid of this nagging feeling that we'd be great together. Le sigh.
skjd1220 Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 I'm sorry Pandagirl. I know there is nothing more frusterating then seeing the potential, being close to what you want but that one little thing is still lagging. I've been working on trying to recognize those signs earlier too before I get too attached. It's a hard lesson to learn but will probably bring better dating options in the future. You have the right attitude about it. Be disappointed and then look for bigger and better next time.
