SunnySide0418 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Talked to a guy I met on POF a few times. We are meeting up on Weds. Today after a conversation I texted him that I like talking to him. He responded with, "Because???"... I said, " I don't know ... it's easy" and his response was, "that sounds like a good reason". I don't know why but that annoyed me. Am I making too much out of it?
Gary S Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Cut down on the texting and wait until the date to talk. Texting is the worst form of communication. 2
DoesntGetIt Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 he was playing the fish for compliments game and you didn't play along so he was snarky back. Let it go and have fun on your date, unless he is snarky there too and then you can both just go your separate ways.
Assada Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 i think its a good sign. I think he's trying to tell you that he's a guy of substance. And if you dont accept it, then you just dont I dont know why this would annoy you 1

No. Just keep it in mind and watch for how often he fishes for compliments when you are together. Anyone who needs constant validation of their awesomeness is someone you want to stop seeing. But at this point it's not conclusive either way. 1
h0000 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Wow way too serious you guys? To me I found it just a playful comment. And so what if he's fishing for compliments. For such a small compliment he deserves it.
rocketman122 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I think it was a positive comment. Problem is you cant tell tone of voice with texts to know. It might have sounded better would he have said it in person. If anything be annoyed by the douchie "because?" He threw at you. Because.. Because youre a douche the why she likes talking to you

fred123 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 how does he know that you like talking to him cos you are just bored or friendly. he might be wasting his time reading into things that arent there
blueskyday Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Ah, not enough info yet. I would guess he was just trying to keep the conversation going. Lots of people say general comments like "I like you," or "I like talking to you." It's good communication to add specifics as to the "why" of such statements. No biggie. Go out on a date to get more input about him.
stillafool Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I was annoyed because he didn't say it back I guess... This is what I guessed. So you were looking for compliments also.

If he annoys you, don't date him. I would think this was his way of flirting with you, he seems not very good at it, I dont think it's too bad.
losangelena Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I was annoyed because he didn't say it back I guess... Oh girl, it's too early to get annoyed at this kind of thing—you haven't even met him yet. Everyone has a different way of expressing their feelings, and a timeline they're comfortable with. It might not occur to him to tell you that he likes chatting with you. That may be evidenced in the fact that he's doing it. I'd say, until y'all have met and you get a chance to know him a bit, try and lower your expectations a bit. Save your convos for when you meet in person.
