6, your answer has convinced me it was a silly idea to ask opinions of dopers about this, though you may not have intended it that way.
With all due respect BigBertha, I probably think it’s a silly idea to ask anyone’s opinion on this.
True, it would be almost like asking Sylvia. Almost. But I thank y’all for the good advice.
Yeah, I know i said I wouldn’t be back here, but I called him today and told him I was going to the library. We go most every night, its free and a/c. He said “I might head up there.” So we got there, and there he comes. Hes never there, we would’ve seen him before. Don’t worry, I’ll be back eventually to let you know when (and if) we have sex.
Ooooh, library sex. Nice.
I’m tellin’ ya **BigBertha **- forget the sex . It’ll only end in tears if he comes *that *quickly.
Fuck no! It’s bad enough catching two teenagers with their hands down each other’s pants. I think I’d have to beat some ass if I caught two 50-year olds going at it under the Danielle Steel books.
Ah ya see Justin_Bailey here’s the rub - it’d be a 50-year-old and a 31-year-old… EEEEW!!!Danielle Steel?!?
yeah I feel like updating, shoot me
Was walking down the street and heard my name, he came across the street and went to some meeting about the city, we joined him. He was going to go home but said he wanted to walk me home most of the way. He was talking about raising money (politically) and said if he had it, he would take me to lunch. Which is nice.
Give me time, I am working on it!
You’ve had a month, so chop chop! Times a wastin’.
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.
As to the “sweetie”- I occasionally address my female friends as “sweetie” but only when they’re crying or hyperventilating. It’s a comforting thing, not just a familiarity thing, and I don’t think I refer to my girlfriend as “sweetie” any more often than I do my female friends.
I totally agree. Some of us are so dense that we can’t see a hint before it’s about as subtle as a kick in the butt or a kiss on the lips. That kind of people need to be told in LARGE. CAPITAL. LETTERS. AND. NOT. MORE. THAN. TWO. SYLLABLES. But may be quite nice and receptive after they’ve taken the not-so-subtle hint.
What are you gonna do if he’s shy? What are you gonna do if he’s keeping back because had bad experiences in the past from overinterpreting an innocent flirt without ulterior motives? What are you gonna do if he’s just that kind of guy who’s not a fan of the hard-to-get behavior (which to me seems rather prevalent in the US) and just wants that his partner tells him what she wants?
ETA: Didn’t notice this was an old one. Oh, well. First paragraph still valid, tho’
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.
This guy is full of shit. Fuck him. Err, don’t fuck him. And tell him to stop hitting you up for money.
Thanks MOL. I have no income right now, actually.
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.
Oh dear. Con artist. Get away. NOW.
Possible con artist. Definite flake. You can do better for boyfriends, friends, and general acquaintances, BigBertha.
