coaster Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I'm just getting out of a very long relationship and now getting into the dating scene. This all very new to me, I was with the same guy since high school and I'm still only 23 years old, so I feel very stupid when it comes to guys. So I went out with this fireman. This guy has been after me for about 2 years, but knew to keep his distance while I was with my boyfriend, and even after the break-up. Finally I found it was time to try to move on and James and I went on our first date. Prior to that was a week-long montage of texting and calling each other for fun. One night he was drunk at his cousin's wedding and he was texting me how much he liked me and has had a thing for me for years. And we finally go on our date. It was a simple date; we went to Jamba Juice and for a walk. We talked alot and I thought we had a good time. At the end of the night, he gave me a big hug and said we should do this again sometime, and that he'd call me again. Okay so it's been a week and nothing. Finally a friend convinced me to just call him because what harm could it do and it would at least give him a reason to call back if he didn't think he had a reason. That was yesterday, early afternoon. So I'm completely confused. Alot of my friends who have been doing the dating thing says that that happens all the time and that guys are weird, but I just don't know. To be honest, I'm a little hurt and I was really starting to like him. I guess maybe I'm just feeling rejected (again) and I don't like it. So my question is, are guys really like this and does this happen all the time? and what do you think? why would someone not call when it seemed like he had a good time?
tiki Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 It's a mixed bag. And they're all out there. You'll get ones that never call (even though you had a good time), ones that claim they 'forgot' to call, ones that DO call and ask for another girl ( I've had this happen!).....you get what I mean. The best thing for you to do, is to get on with your life. And look at it this way, if he finally *did* call and it progressed into a relationship, you'd have to worry about mind games, or that he seemed 'flakey'. And who needs that?
