DontWorryBHappy Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I had an "impromptu date" of sorts last night (or I thought I did). There's a guy who always comes into my work to buy coffee, and we've been making small talk for a while now. I started occasionally running into him around (college campus.. we're students, ages 22 and 23). So I ran into him unexpectedly at the library last night. He wasn't in a hurry to leave and was hanging back to talk with me, wanting to know what I was up to at the time. I suggested we study together, sensing that he would be very happy to, and realizing that we could use this opportunity to get to know each other. It was really cute, we studied and talked in-between..he was pretty into making conversation and invited me to eat with him after a couple hours, where he jumped in to pay for my food and coffee, and where we continued our conversations. After that we decided we were through with studying, and he drove me home. While sitting in the car before I left, he asked for my number and stated he would give me a call. Now stupid me knows that this could be anything. Maybe this was just a friendly guy being polite. Maybe he does like me and he will call. Maybe he'll continue making small talk in my store and never use the number.. I know it could be any of those or more, and I know it's pointless to care, and I know that I shouldn't give a rat's a$$ about any guy when he's basically just a stranger to me, but knowing all this, I still came home all temporarily giddy from spending time with him then proceeded to keep one eye on my phone the whole next day wondering if he might call. He hasn't (yet?) by the way. I guess I wish I really didn't care instead of trying to convince myself that I don't. The truth is that I'm jaded, and I actually would be more surprised by a guy following through and calling than I would be by him never calling. The latter just seems more likely these days.. and no natter what I do or how many other things I have going, I just *know* that one eye will still be on that phone for at least the next couple days, probably followed by a period of disappointment in contrast to that initial high from meeting someone..
Ladybugz Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 What advice were you asking for again? This isn't a blog. whahahahhaahhahaahhahahahhahhahaaha, so much funny reply s :D:D:D:D:D today.
todreaminblue Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Sounds like you had a good time with him, sometimes guys will leave it fro a while before contacting again, dont be discouraged, he is a student as are you, there could be ample reasons why he hasnt rung yet, give it time,dont be disappointed if he doesnt......you had a good time, so chances are he will want to repeat it.....best wishes.....deb
aed Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 maybe it's just me but what you described in your OP: made me thing about this song:

D-Lish Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Don't live your life waiting for a call. Don't overthink things so much. If a guy asks for your number after you had a nice time together and he doesn't call- his loss, not yours.
crude Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 You're the woman. Your job is to wait for a call, wait for a man to ask you out, wait for a man to pay any bills. Don't ever take charge or even do 1/2 of the interaction, because conservatives have written dating books about men's and women's roles and no one had better challenge that.
Imajerk17 Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 It just means that you are alive. When I get a girl's number I feel stoked but I also am putting some mental energy into wondering whether she will return my call. I hope this guy follows throufh. 1
