A deer hit T's truck tonight so no he isn't coming

Yeah the J trance is wearing off...I wish I knew why he stopped talking all together though

There a guy at work who's been showing a little interest...not sure I want to go there with a co-worker though.

I'm so over whelmed with working right now...the men are kind of an after thought when I have time to think..ya know?

I'm glad he finally said it!! Yippy for you!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Just saw your update Faith~~

Who knows what to think of this character ya know?!!

I don't like the sounding depressed part. There's something about a man, and sounding depressed, that doesn't go together.

Good luck with Mr. Slow.

Allurin~~T seems to be having a bit of bad luck lately......mysterious bug bites, deer....yikes! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Faith1~~I would just be up front w/ him next time you speak and just tell him you don't see this going anywhere (if that's how you feel).

was a spider bite and had to be on antibiotics...Had I not actually seen it I probably wouldn't have believed it. And now the deer...

It's been a semi-bad week for me too...so I'm trying to be open minded about everything and not jump the gun.

Still haven't talked to Mr. Slow. I'm such a chicken, and he didn't call me at work Friday like he said he would (surprise). But he has called the last 3 nights and left messages. Last night he asked me to call him back. Ugh. I want to ignore him... surely he'll get a clue that I'm pi$$ed and not going to call.

I would have answsered his call last night, but I had been dealing with my car repairs all day, car is still at the shop, and had just gotten a ride home WITH xBF J, who was still with me, and I just wasn't ready to handle THE phone call.

I'm such a chicken... I should call him right now... and be done with this.

UGH, the dreaded phone call. Did you make it Faith?
I still don't get this guy. Either he's interested or not, but what's the wait all about in between? Just seems strange to me.

What's going on with Mr. J? Is it still 'just friends'?

Hope you car is repaired and didn't break the bank!

K!

J is "just a friend". A few tiny smooches, but nothing else. I am OK with that, while neither of us has anyone else.

I'm still a chicken. Surely R realized by now he messed up, and I'm avoiding him. We would advise someone in his position to forget about me and move on. Sorry. I can't always do "the right thing"... returning his call. If he calls again, I really will return his call. But I bet he's got the message by now.

Okay, well, you need to fill us in on "the call". How did it go, and what did he say.
I can't imagine??

Alright, I did it. I called him. He seemed happy to hear from me, but jumped right in with his reasons for not calling for the past 3 weeks. Then he asked if I wanted to do something "sometime next week" (gee, does he really mean NEXT week??? or this week???) anyway...

I said "noooo... I don't think so" He seemed surprised... I said" I just don't really see this going anywhere... sooo... I don't see any further reason to go out" (or something along those lines).

He seemed kinda quiet... kinda surprised. said "well... ok.... I had great time... had fun with you"...

I said, "well, me too. You're real sweet, I just don't see this going anywhere."

He said, "well, Ok. if you change your mind, give me a call."

I said, "ok... "

He said "thanks for calling me back"

I said "ok... take care"

that's it. I survived. LOL. He didn't ask why, so I didn't educate him. If he wants a clue, he'll call back, and I'll give him a clue. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

WTG Faith! See, now you don't have to think about it anymore....

I am at bit baffled that he was surprised. C'mon, does he really think that's how to show interest to a woman? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Maybe he thought he was raising his "social price" by playing cool <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />.

Good for you Faith.
You were kind and honest.

Goodness, I'm still baffled by the guy!

WTG Faith.
Closure is good.

He might be baffled, but heck -- we've all been baffled by him for weeks now. His turn to sit and wonder...
