CautiouslyOptimistic Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 This guy is confident, has common sense , doesn’t feel entitled to her time. Agree! That was refreshing to see! Glad you had fun, MO! 2
FMW Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 That sounds great! Thanks for sharing the positive experience.
JuneL Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 “Even if I never hear from him again it's nice to be with someone who's not a d bag.” That’s a great attitude! 1
Ruby Slippers Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 I'm very happy for you that you met someone the old-fashioned way and had a great date! 1
Happy Lemming Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Send him a text or e-mail and tell him how much you enjoyed your evening and you are looking forward to seeing him again. Maybe include your schedule, so he can "date plan"!! 2
JuneL Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 Send him a text or e-mail and tell him how much you enjoyed your evening and you are looking forward to seeing him again. Maybe include your schedule, so he can "date plan"!! This! Please toss out your 48-hour rule!! 2
CautiouslyOptimistic Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 this guy sounds like a major creep What makes you say that??
alphamale Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 What makes you say that?? I don't know, just sounds creepy. He's way too eager
NuevoYorko Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 I don't know, just sounds creepy. He's way too eager Don't be such a buzzkiller, man. 4
Author mortensorchid Posted May 7, 2019 Author Posted May 7, 2019 I decided to forgo my 48 hour rule and sent a text saying "Evening". He responded and said he's djing until about midnight. I said "Ok don't let me interrupt, I am turning in soon", he texted back "Sleep well". 2
Happy Lemming Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 I decided to forgo my 48 hour rule and sent a text saying "Evening". OK... so he is working (late), that sounds reasonable. Good job, not waiting 48 hours. You have shown interest, and he'll probably respond tomorrow. Fingers crossed he asks you out for another date this week!! Do you know your schedule for the week, yet??
rightondude Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 I decided to forgo my 48 hour rule and sent a text saying "Evening". He responded and said he's djing until about midnight. I said "Ok don't let me interrupt, I am turning in soon", he texted back "Sleep well". uh oh couldn't you have said "knock em out!" or "cool!" or something ... "don't let me interrupt" sounds like you're pissed he's doing something....men hear that and they cringe. Sorry. 2
BaileyB Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 I decided to forgo my 48 hour rule and sent a text saying "Evening". He responded and said he's djing until about midnight. I said "Ok don't let me interrupt, I am turning in soon", he texted back "Sleep well". Evening? That was the best you could come up with? If this is going to work out for you, you will really need to let your guard down and take a risk! Perhaps tomorrow, you could send him a text that says - “Did you have fun DJing last night?” Or even, “I had a really good time the other night. I’d love to get together again...” Give it a shot. What do you have to lose? 4
Author mortensorchid Posted May 8, 2019 Author Posted May 8, 2019 24 hours since the last communication... Waiting for it.
chillii Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 Yeah , personally l'd leave it up to him now, see if he pops up. He knows he can message ya or call or something so he should if he wants too.
Happy Lemming Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 To mortensorchid, Any updates?? Did he contact you??
Author mortensorchid Posted May 10, 2019 Author Posted May 10, 2019 I did not hear from him yesterday by his Facebook posts he said he had his kids over for the evening so they were having some pizza and a movie night. I didn't want to bother him. I will be working during the day on Saturday as I am subbing for someone on the weekend shift.
Author mortensorchid Posted May 11, 2019 Author Posted May 11, 2019 Still no contact from him. He posted on an update I put on Facebook saying "Almonds are a good snack" a few hours ago and one or two others said a few responses to it. He also posted saying "Garlic pitashios". And ... Nothing else. I looked at his page and he posted photos of his dogs and food he was eating / cooking. Not much else. I will continue to wait if he contacts me. I mentioned to a friend through IM this evening of this and he said "Don't loose hope." I am trying not to.
Blind-Sided Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 Well... a couple thoughts... 1) He does work late, and may just want a little down time. Also, having kids over, and the possibility of needing to do something for his mom this weekend could keep him quite for a little while. 2) Some guys just go slow, and don't want to scare away someone nice. I know I've read several of your threads on the 48 hr rule... but if you like him... just give him another day or so before giving up. On a lighter note... how was the movie? I want to see it, but I don't think either of my kids would sit through it. I'm actually thinking about taking a friend's kid. Her kid wants to see it, but she doesn't.
Gaeta Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 This guy being a DJ must be the most busy on weekends. I would not worry for now, I'd stay positive and wait for Mon-Tues to here something concrete from him.
