SmallWonder Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 I'm writing this as an update, sort of. I am seeing this guy - well, more like "talking to" - that I have had a crush on since the 3rd grade. He had a crush on me, too - Ten years later, I'm divorced, we bump into each other and BAM! Instand attraction. We're taking things slow - as in, more of a CRAWL. We're both really private people who don't share idle gossip or express our feelings all over the place. Guarded, for the time being. We both are interested in seeing if we can trust each other because truly, we're getting to know each other all over again. We have been physical, but he put the brakes on a few weeks ago so we didn't get caught up in a strictly sexual relationship - it was annoyingly mature of him. I want him so bad I can taste it. Last night on the phone, we had a great conversation (and I'm NOT a phone gal) and he let this drop: "If you're ever my girlfriend...." So...I'm guessing he is thinking that he DOES want me to be his girlfriend eventually? Am I right? Or just mis-reading the conversation. I had been tyring to give him his space - he's been a total GUY'S GUY for years - and last night he said to me, "When I see you this Saturday, could you act excited to see me?" Because I had been playing it cool. I didn't even know he'd noticed, thinking he'd like the space in public. But it annoyed him. That's good, right?
Dean3922 Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 You've got him wanting more and that is a good thing. Don't hide your feelings to much or he might think you have lost interest. There is nothing wrong with some affection. One of you needs to be a little forward in the feelings department or you might miss each other. Give him a smile, hug, kiss and let him know you appreciate him and let him do the same for you. I would say that calling you his future g/f means he has already made that decision and wants to know how you will react to it. Keep going girl. You've got him hooked.
Author SmallWonder Posted August 19, 2005 Author Posted August 19, 2005 Sweet. It's nice to have those butterflies in the tummy - I feel like a teenager (I'm 27)! This guy has been a mystery to me for some time, so that conversation last night was exciting. We don't see each other much, because like I said, he's a Guy's Guy. His friend Joe told me to play hard to get, and so I did it in a MODIFIED way. By giving him his space and letting him call me - if I don't hear from him for 3 or 4 days, I call him, always have a reason for calling, and make it brief. This reminds him that he likes me and should want to see me. Then he always says he'd like to see me and we make plans. My mind is working overdrive and it's exhausing AND stimulating at the same time.
