smile Posted June 11, 2006 Posted June 11, 2006 Ok so this odd thing happened. My mother picked out a guy and I liked him, A LOT!!! It was so wierd. I come from a big mexican family and NEVER EVER was planning on dating a Mexican. I was just afraid of the macho stuff I saw in my family. And if he was a mexican he would have to be as american as I am... ya know... not so traditional and macho, certainly not a boy from mexico. BUT lo and behold there is this guy my family sets me up with. He had met me a year ago and was embarrassed to speak to me bc he hardly spoke english. So when he met my aunt a year later he asked if I was going to be at the function they asked him to go to. She said yes and he remembered me a year later. Even learned english bc he was mad that he was too embarrassed to talk to me. So one of my aunts conned me into giving him my cell number (so he could get directions to pick up some stuff afterwards). I didn't want to hang out with him. I saw no point. The odds were stacked against this guy. And he called a few times and I finally agreed to hang out with him. When I went to meet him I was immediately smitten. He was funny and nice and we got along sooo well. He kept telling me how comfortable he felt with me and how he was having such a good time. He was even kinda flirty when we sat on the couch. He went on and on about things we should do together whatever. Then when he left he said he would call me. And so on thursday we talked and he asked me out that night. But I had to work the next morning so I didnt want to go out. He said he was going to the gym and he hemmed and hawed about having nothing to do but he wasnt tired enough to sleep. It occured to me a day later he may have wanted me to ask him to come by. DUH So I felt bac bc I had friends say he prob thought that was a sign I wasnt interested. Soo I called him while he was at work and left a msg about not having to work sunday morning so if he wanted to hang out on sat night gimme a call. He never called. I know it was only 2 days and he is kinda busy (owns a bar - it is the weekend) but I was like bummed he didnt call back. Do you think he is interested or should I move on? I hate that I like him as much as I do and now he seems to be backing off. I would be ok just hanging out with him as friends but I dont know if he even wants that . I dont know how to act interested without seeming needy or slutty or stalkery. Or like a loser. But I like him and I dont know how to show it or what to say or do. Or how to read what he wants. EVER ..even when its obvious to EVERYONE. I hate that my mom did this to me. I can find my own confusing boys... why do I have to like this one so much? Geesh
