I went out this evening line dancing with a group of friends, mixed men and women.

 

And on the way home, I got angry.

 

"We should discuss that over a drink." "Ok".

 

"There's a new place up the street, we should stop by after work and get a drink." "Sounds fun."

 

"Thanks for coming to the picnic with me, sorry about Ron, let me take you out for a drink." "I'd enjoy that."

 

"The food here is sad. We need to go out to lunch, I know this place..." "Sure, I'd like to do that."

 

Me: "I'll bring in the info on XXX tomorrow." Him: "Is it something we can discuss over drinks." "Sure."

 

Him: "Drop off those cruise brochures at my office and if you want, I'll take you to a late lunch." "That sounds great."

 

Said on a Thursday, "Before you leave for Thanksgiving Wednesday, I'd like to take you for a drink." "Ok"

 

"What days are you taking off for Xmas? I need to take you for a holiday drink." "Sounds like a great way to kick off Xmas. I'm leaving Friday morning, that leaves Tuesday, Wed, or Thursday." "We'll discuss it over lunch, are you going downstairs at 11:30?" "Yes." (it was never brought up).

 

Then yesterday: "You got free time, are you going to be around the next couple weeks. Want to go for a drink?" "Sure, I have lots of free time, I'd like that, pick a date." "What's your phone numbers?" (he has two of them, but I give him a third as well). "Where do you live." (I tell him). But no 'pick a date'.

 

And I go out tonight and see a bunch of people who managed to pick a date and get together for a frigging drink.

 

WHAT THE HECK IS THIS MAN DOING?

 

If he's gun shy, why even ask?

 

If he's not into me, why bring up the idea of going for a drink or lunch at all? Why not just eat a quick lunch with me or stay away?

 

I decided on the way home. No more going downstairs for lunch. He won't see me again unless he calls one of those three numbers he asked for.

 

But I still want to know WTF he's thinking? What kind of game is this?
