alexwood Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 my girfriend asked what made me interested in dating her and i asked the same..this was her response "i met you and went on the first date expecting you not to show up and less than no expectations for anything coming of it. when the first date ended, i didnt think i would hear from you again, which i was fine with. but then yuo surprised me and you wernt so bad. you are a gentleman mostly and though my independent self finds it highly annoying, i appreciate it and like it about you. i went in this with zero interest , then with interest and no expectations and now im just enjoying us" how would you take that?
Fondue Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 I wouldn't show it, but I'd probably be a little pinched by that. "I went in this with zero interest?" Ouch. Honestly, I would have loved to known that information before the first meetup. Then I wouldn't have even bothered. If I don't spark interest in someone, why would I want to meet them? I'm glad it worked out for you int he end, but damn...
Dontfindme Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Basically you ended up being a pleasant surprise? I don't see anything worth mulling over here. 1
umirano Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 wow, a pretty sobering comment by your GF I must say. Do you know why she'd have such low expectations? If you don't, do you care why?
AlwaysAKL Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 I think it was more of a " no expectations means no disappointments" kind of deal. I don't think she meant anything bad by it. She had no expectations and then was surprised that she really liked you. I have had that happen to me before.
Diezel Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 You guys are looking at the wrong comment. The comment about him being a gentleman and her "independent self finding it highly annoying" is much, much worse.
Toodaloo Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 To be honest she is sensible having no expectations. I think what she is trying to say is that she came along not expecting you to be special but was very happily surprised to find that you are. She likes being with you. She enjoys being with you. She is obviously very independent and doesn't want to rely on someone else and finds that you mean something to her which is the "annoyance" part, i.e. annoyance with herself and not you. I would guess that she has been stood up and suffered all manner of rude behavior from other men... now you have just broken the mold. Take it as a compliment.
