> [@BigBertha](#): > > Just asking for opinions. A guy friend comes over, you tell him you just got up, he offers to go home, make you breakfast and bring it over. He does, lots of pancakes, eggs, toast, biscuits. Is this just a friendly gesture or more? Hi BB! On the off-off-chance that this feller is [the same guy](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=565315) referred to by **CatWhisperer** and\*\* MOL\*\* above, I went back and dug up your earlier thread on him (I’m home from work sick today, so I had time) to remind you of some highlights (bolding mine). > [@Female overanalyzing](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/female-overanalyzing/541470/92): > > Thanks for all the help but I have to be over it now. Turns out he got a car; I asked him for a ride to the grocery store for my weekly groceries. Sure, he said. > So he picked us up, dropped us off, as he was doing some yard work for this guy. Then he picked us back up, took us home, and went back to the guys, **saying he’d be back in 10 minutes to take me up to a place with my application. > Never showed up.** The app is still in his car.☹ > I still like him but cannot accept being stood up. > [@Female overanalyzing](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/female-overanalyzing/541470/95): > > Okay. he called today claiming the guy made him work extra and then he came over but we had already left (true) then called me later. It didn’t show up on my caller i.d. though. > He came over and did drive me up to turn my application in, then when he droped me off, he **asked if I had a few bucks to spare. I do not**. > [@Female overanalyzing](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/female-overanalyzing/541470/98): > > He called last Friday telling me theres this place we could go to get work that day, they send you out to a job, he said he’d drive me if it was a different location than they send him. **Said he’d call back with more info Sunday. No call yet.** > [@Female overanalyzing](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/female-overanalyzing/541470/101): > > You are right, I am sad to report. He saw us walking somewhere earlier and drove us there, \*\*said he’d be back at 3 \*\*when we were done to take us home (its about 2 miles from home). **At 3:45, we had to get someone from the place to drive us home, he never showed.** > And a mod can clsoe the thread then. > [@Female overanalyzing](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/female-overanalyzing/541470/106): > > **Yes, with sadness. I just wanted to add the extra good part where he picked me up on my way somewhere, dropped me off and said he would come back and pick me up(this is 2 miles from home) He requested gas money, whatever I wanted to offer. he never showed up, why, he later said, because he had to drive somewhere an hour drive away, and didn’t make it back in time. Yet he had enough gas money to drive to this place for almost 3 hours driving time.** > [@BigBertha](#): > > My stove doesnt work properly. Dear BB, if the guy you’re asking about here is indeed this same guy, your stove isn’t the only thing that’s malfunctioning. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/breakfast-delivered/573800)._
