nsmith Posted December 19, 2006 Posted December 19, 2006 SCENARIO, sorry if it's long. I met this guy at a bon voyage party. My friend had been drunk and was talking to me - when suddenly, she decided to ask for his name. After she subsequently left, it was just me and David. We started chatting, discussing political affiliations, career aspirations, debated over various political agendas. He asked for my number and came with me and my group of friends when we relocated to get a mexican restaurant. Instead of walking with the group, we ended up walking by ourselves. It was sweet. Anyways the night ended, and he said that he'll call me later and give me his number. Four days later, he texted me this extremely long message. How he enjoyed meeting me and how he wanted to give me his number - he broke his ankle but that he'd love to see me in a week or two. I casually called him about an hour later and left a voicemail. And we exchanged textmsgs afterwards. It was dying out and so on the spur of the moment about two weeks afterwards, I gave him a call and told him that on Sunday I was going to be in town - and if he wanted to meet up for coffee. He agreed. So when I got there, I was with a couple of my friends. I called him, left a message. And he called me back 30 minutes later, he was on the phone when I called. He asks me where I want to meet up and made sure that we're going to get coffee afterwards. He calls me when he's outside and we walk around, he wants to take me to this hot chocolate restaurant and I'm totally for it. I was totally prepared to pay, wallet out - but he was faster and ordered my drink without me noticing. The restaurant was packed and we decide to take a walk - end up outside of au bon pain, and sit there listening to this teenager play sax. We talk about income redistribution, perspective on life, etc. To cut it short, we walk around - sometimes his arm was around my shoulder, or we're linking arms, or just walking side by side. At the end, he pulls me in for a hug and kisses my cheek. We don't make plans to see each other afterwards or call, but he knows that we're both going on winter vacation. Is he interested? Or should I just forget about it? Should I even call or text him later this week to tell him I had fun?
guin_girl Posted December 19, 2006 Posted December 19, 2006 I hate to say it, but if he was really interested he would have made plans to see you already. Sounds like he's already placed you in the "friend" category.

Sounds like he's already placed you in the "friend" category. I don't know if i can agree, because when they were supposed to meet the first time, he broke his ankle. The second time nothing was said because of plans with the holidays. Something seemed to get in the way each time. He could be shy, obviously he's interested in something. Be it dating or friendship. If i were you i wouldn't chalk it up to friendship just yet. I would call him after the holidays and meet up one more time. If his actions are the same then, chances are he's only interested in friendship. But there's nothing wrong with friendship right? Hey, at least you made a new friend
