River Rain Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 HA! physical ass...ets. love it. that could very well be why you enjoy sports. yeah, the game is called 'words with friends' and he wouldn't turn his phone off when the plane was taxi-ing. see, if there's one thing i don't like about famous people, it's that they think they're owed some sort of special treatment no matter where they go...false. LOL...yeah, it must have some superficiality to it, because I don't watch women's sports at all That was it, "words with friends"...I remember reading about that. Guess what? New Guy emailed me back, we're going to keep getting to know each other Very happy this morning. What's going on with Random Hugger?

I'm very happy for you. I talked to random hugger yesterday morning, mostly about the election here and politics. I asked if he was free saturday. He said he may be at some point. That's not a bad sign, right?

I think New Guy and I have potential, he's a sweet talker. I know going in though, that he works a lot, so I'm going to be careful about being anxious if I don't hear from him every day. Which is fine, because after the last one, I really want to take things slowly. He said he wants to drive up and visit me this winter though, we have a date planned...winter outdoor hot tubbing I don't think Random Hugger's response was a bad sign, because you didn't really ask if he was free at a specific time right? You've been chatting, and that's the good sign Maybe tomorrow you should ask him to meet for lunch or drinks at so-and-so time, then see what he says?

Taking it slow is a good idea. I remember in the very beginning random hugger said we can take it slow...yet here I was joining a dating advice forum because I was over analytical after one date. winter outdoor hot tubbing sounds super fun! You're right, I didn't ask what specific time yet. At one point last night I asked him when else he was free, but got no response. No biggie. My one friend thinks he's too much of a flake for not always texting back and she says I'm giving him complete control. But sheba jaded so I disregard whatever she says. LOL

We never take our own advice...New Guy is a chef...he's also a martial artist...and he's a sweet guy, full package, so I hope I don't mess it up trying to move to quickly. He did say he missed me, so that's a good sign She who is jaded gives advice based on personal experience...Random Hugger could very well be a flake, but you have to learn that for yourself. Remember about the hearsay!

I plan to. i haven't texted him today but I kind of want to. But maybe I won't.

I do have to find out for myself! I plan to. i haven't texted him today but I kind of want to. But maybe I won't. LOL...I'd like to do more than bag him up. He's super cute and very flirty. I'll be moving to his city in April, he knows that. So I think it's a great opportunity to use the next 5 months to get to know each other. We're only about a 2 hour drive away from each other too, so it's not too far for now. We were emailing back and forth for nearly a month, so we've established a little foundation which is nice. I'd love to "graduate" to phone calls, but I'm learning the delicate art of being patient... ...on the subject of being patient, lol...when was the last time you "talked"? Texted yesterday right? Why don't you give it until tomorrow. I know you want to have a connection with him, it's natural when you like a guy...but wait until tomorrow. Remember what you said, you want to take it slowly!

LOL, you go gurlll. Cute and flirty + a good job = winner. I think I mentioned before that I think it's great that you have this period where physical contact is limited, because it allows you to talk more and get to know each other. You will graduate to phone calls when the time comes. says the guy who's impatient, lol... Did you say you live in montreal? Last year I lived in a city in upstate new york called potsdam. Not sure if you know it but it's only a couple hours from montreal I believe. I just thought I'd share. Haha, yesterday was the last time we texted, yes. I'm gonna try my best to be patient and take things one day at a time! I used to think when he didn't respond, I was being annoying...but I guess not if he agreed to a second date. I too would like to graduate to phone calls, but random hugger is a very busy guy, so I will wait until things progress further, if they do.

It's fun to meet new guys, especially when there's a little spark. I like that period of limited physical contact too, it kind of builds the energy I'm actually north of Montreal, the Laurentian mountains, it's gorgeous here. But I'll be moving to Ottawa in the spring. I just looked up Potsdam, and that website looks familiar...I think at one point, I was looking up universities in Vermont and New York. I figured I'd still live in Quebec, but just commute over the border. It's a cute little town! Funny, I feel the same way, when they don't respond. I feel like I'm a bother or something, especially if I send another email just to say hi. Is today the day you'll send the next text?

I agree, it's fun to meet someone new...it can be exciting and fun. I haven't been to canada since I was a child, so I don't know it too well. My roommate when I lived in potsdam was from ottawa! I personally am a big city kind of guy, so I potsdam wasn't too great for me...it's in the middle of nowhere. One of my closest friends has been to quebec countless times. Maybe next time I'll force her to bring me. Today is the day! It sounds so adventurous, hehe. I may text him just to say hello today, then follow up about saturday tomorrow.
Author jefermelesyeux Posted November 11, 2012 Author Posted November 11, 2012 update: random hugger and i did not end up going on a date tonight. i sent him a text yesterday, asking how today was looking for date #2. never got a response. and since we never made concrete plans, i'm not too upset about it. i do wish he would have let me know though, but i guess this is the flakiness our mutual friend was talking about. i just hope he wasn't lying when he said he is interested in seeing me again... this should be enough to make it clear that i shouldn't bother with him, but i still want to. am i crazy?
Divasu Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 this should be enough to make it clear that i shouldn't bother with him, but i still want to. am i crazy? Well you want to because you like him. But he didn't follow through with plans, so at this point, you'd be pursuing a ghost. It's okay to still like him, just that you don't have to act on it.

It's okay to still like him, just that you don't have to act on it. yeah, good point. maybe if i give it time, he'll come around. it just seems that every guy recently that i've really been interested in (which are not many; i'm very picky), hasn't reciprocated, or something has gone wrong. sorry for being all whiny tonight, i'm just not in the best mood.
Divasu Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Nah, no apology needed. Brush it off, you'll be fine. 1

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that. Flaky is one thing, but not responding is kind of mean, considering you two have already been on a date. You're not crazy at all...but yeah, I'd definitely not contact him again. Take care!
