Cora Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 A couple years ago I met this guy and we used to talk all the time. Had long convos on the phone etc. I didn't think he was that into me so I just kind of gave up on him and met someone new. The new person didn't work out so I gave this guy a call, but it was too late....he had already moved on with someone else and said he was very happy. He told me I could still call him whenever I wanted, but I did not want to interfere so I left well enough alone. That was a long time ago and we haven't spoken since. All of a sudden tonight I get this call from him....or from his number rather. It's after three a.m. here and he is calling me. This is what makes me think it wasn't him since he never called this late when we used to talk. I did not answer because I did not have my cell on me, but I just checked it and noticed I missed his call. Well, I didn't know it was him at first....just knew the number looked familiar. I have since gotten a new phone and did not program his number...there was no need to, we no longer talk. So I look through my contacts on my old phone and found out it was his number. Gosh, do you think it could have been his girlfriend/fiance/wife calling? It's been so long ago, I don't know if he is married now or still seeing the same girl or someone different....but I just have this feeling it wasn't him unless he was drunk or something. But why the hell would he even still have my number in his phone? Is he just too lazy to delete it? Hopefully I wont get another call, but if I do I don't know what to say if it is his girlfriend or whatever. I mean saying something like oh I don't talk to him anymore...that was a long time ago etc. Isn't that the oldest line in the book? This call was so out of the blue. I bet he got caught even though there is nothing to catch. Serves him right though....I mean hell...get rid of my number!
skydiveaddict Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 (edited) it's anyone's guess as to why he called. but he's still thinking about you obviously. and i think that's significant. why would he keep your phone# after all this time? i would do nothing for now. wait & see if he calls again. he called so late because he's probably a little drunk. & that's when your defenses come down and might say things that are really on you mind that you never say while sober Edited December 27, 2009 by skydiveaddict
ordinary_girl Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 oh please. my bet is that he dialled by accident or someone played with his phone. call him and find out, what's the deal? people keep numbers the same way they keep lots of friends on facebook. they collect people. that means nothing
Bejita463 Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 people keep numbers the same way they keep lots of friends on facebook. they collect people. that means nothing This is news to me, honestly.
TaraMaiden Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 Or if it was his GF, she was ringing to find out who would answer - guy or girl. Ignore it, better yet, delete it and block it. Who cares?
ordinary_girl Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 This is news to me, honestly. you are being sarcastic I assume
Bejita463 Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 you are being sarcastic I assume While sarcasm is not uncommon with me, in this particular instance I was being sincere. It has not been my experience that people maintain phone numbers they've no intent upon ever using. That is not to say that they do not, just that my experience with people has not been what you are stating. So, it really is news to me.

I noticed that people keep numbers when they don't attach particular hurt to the person. I personally get rid of phone numbers I never use (only for practical reasons really) but I noticed people keep a lot of info. I think they just can't be bothered to trawl through numbers. Sometimes maybe even like having a long list in their mobile. you know, that popularity thing like collecting 'friends' on facebook. sad but true
Vintage79 Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 I just looked through my phone, and apparently still have numbers from girls I dated 3-4 years ago. I don't ever plan on calling them, but just saying that they're there. I wouldn't read anything into the call - likely just an accident - was there a message left? That would be more telling, as would a repeat call. At a minimum, if you're over the guy, don't worry about it at all, just pretend it was a wrong number.
