There is a guy I know who lives fairly close by (maybe 20 minutes away) who I’ve known for a couple of years but only met in person twice. He keeps talking about how it’s been too long since we’ve gotten together, etc.
I’ve gotten the definite impression that he “likes me” … but the other day was the worst.
He tells me how lonely he is, and how he’s been having erotic dreams about people he knows. I sense where this is heading and try to change the subject. He continues. “I’ve had a few about you”
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!
Now understand, this guy is about the most dull person I’ve ever met. He’s also physically unappealing to me.
I once had a coworker call me up and tell me that “I’ve never had feelings for a coworker, so I really don’t know how to handle this, but…uh…I was wondering if we could have coffee or something as non-friends.” I waffled, he picked up on that, saying “Or as friends. Whatever.” It was terribly uncomfortable for a while, as we had to work together. It didn’t help that he kept making as point to say “I just wanted to tell you that you look really good today.” He was never skeevy about it, just nervous and uncomfortable.
But after a while, he found someone else, and I count him among my best friends now.
Wow, Opal, between that and the Mexican story you sure do draw 'em.
If my Gov’t Mule passes don’t show up can I drive up to Tysons?
I’m in a crush mode with a dear girl who lives in Seattle but I’d never be so rude to talk or act ungentlemanly.
When I was about 16/17 there was this fella at work who would make several trips per shift past me, making sure he caught my eye, smiled, or chit-chatted if I wasn’t too busy. He was a bit odd to say the least. Not appealing to me at all. Being the kind person I never told him to bugger off, but offered no encouragement. When he started coming by my house to chat, my dad had to run him off.
Perhaps you could mention to the aforementioned acquaintance that relaying the fact that he has had “erotic dreams” about you is not the best way to ask for a date.
Not even in the top 50.
Whatever happened to going out for coffee and mentioning that you look really nice in that sweater?
Especially considering that the last guy to tell me he had erotic dreams about me then proceeded to unzip his pants and try to force my shirt off. I had him arrested for sexual assault.
