LatsyrcSC Posted July 24, 2004 Posted July 24, 2004 I can't believe this just happened. I got a call today from a man at church. I'm 23 and single, he's in his late thirties..married..with two kids. He informed me the wife was outta town visiting family and that he was all alone. He said he wanted to go see "I, Robot" but all his guy friends were busy, so he called me. He said he needed a date. I said, "Yeah right..whatever..what do you want George." (I was kinda laughing) He said, no seriously. Then he said I know it'll look weird us being together so if you want you can bring your cousin (who's 24 and married). He said, I can't believe you don't have 10 men trailing behind you asking for you number. Probably cause you're so attractive they're intimidated to ask you out. So I figured I'd call and you know......if you're not doing anything maybe go see a movie with me. OH MY GOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..he's a DOG. He's got a good Christian woman and a family and he's willing to through all that away for me??? You can say what you want, but he's looking for a piece. He should be ashamed!!!!!!
Adunaphel Posted July 24, 2004 Posted July 24, 2004 Christians are humans Christians who act in every field of their life as 'perfect christians' are called saints. Don't be shocked because he is acting this way AND attending church. I mean, don't be disappointed by men who go to church(in general)because of this guy. Are you absolutely positive he really means to hit on you? Any chances he likes you as a person, complimented you but it is not an affair he is looking for? I suggest you go to the movies with him. While there assume his wife knows he's in your company and is okay with it . And act accordingly. If he does one single move on you, give him a piece of your mind and let you know what you think about it!!!!
moimeme Posted July 24, 2004 Posted July 24, 2004 he's willing to through all that away for me??? No. He has no intention of throwing anything away. His willing receptacle isn't available so he's trying to find a substitute in her absence. He knows flattery works on young naive people so is trying to win your groin with it. Tell him to call Rosy Palmer and her five sisters for his 'date'. I suggest you go to the movies with him. While there assume his wife knows he's in your company and is okay with it . And act accordingly. Oh come on! He is clearly flirting with her - and she clearly knows it. To pretend otherwise is just bogus. She can't be so hard up for someone to go to a movie to. And he's a big boy - he can go to a movie all by himself just like a lot of grownups do. yeesh.
Author LatsyrcSC Posted July 24, 2004 Author Posted July 24, 2004 I'm sorry, but if I was married I would have a big problem with my husband taking another lady to see a movie (especially one who's old enough to be her daughter). It's obvious what he's looking for. I'd be willing to bet money that he won't tell his wife about this. He knows it's inappropriate.
Author LatsyrcSC Posted July 25, 2004 Author Posted July 25, 2004 Should I tell my pastor about the situation. Or let it ride for now until the next time it happens? He's a deacon in the church btw.
sinner Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 I wouldn't tell the pastor, at this time. Just let the MM know that if persists in hectoring you for dates, after you've told him to leave you alone, that you will complain to his wife and/or the pastor. That, dear lady, should put a chill in his pants.
dudesomewhere Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 if it's harmless from his end no worries...if not...he'll have to deal with it. From my experiences...summed up...he should be ashamed. And yeah, I'm 31, single and go to the movies by myself...though very rarely cuz I likes my dvds . Besides the movies...I do almost every other outing by myself. So should he.
Author LatsyrcSC Posted July 25, 2004 Author Posted July 25, 2004 I go to the movies by myself all the time too. I ENJOY IT!!!! No one trying to talk to you while the movie's playing. Very nice. That's why I questioned his intentions. I'm going to ask a few more people they're opinion about talking to the pastor and their reasoning and see which is the best solution.
Adunaphel Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 I'm going to ask a few more people they're opinion about talking to the pastor and their reasoning and see which is the best solution. This is okay as long as you ask in internet forums, but I suggest you don't ask to people who know you and him personally. Rumors are really easy to spread. And they do no good.
Author LatsyrcSC Posted July 25, 2004 Author Posted July 25, 2004 Yeah definitely. I've only told family and people on this message board and at raptureready.com
mronederful Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 politely tell george that if you were to go to the movies with him, you wouldn't want someone to tell his wife any false tales. it was irresponsible for him to even ask. maybe he was sincere, and just not thinking, or maybe he knew exactly what he was doing. either way i'd tell the wife.
