asked me out last night. how weird is that? he was the final straw in me making my decision to go on a dating hiatus. i havent heard from him in over 6 months, so to see his text pop up was quite a shocker. i actually didnt look at my phone until about an hour after he sent it. he wanted to go to dinner and i definitely would have been up for it, but the timing was off.
why would a guy call after 6 months?
I've always wondered how I'd react to an Ex coming back to me... Hmm... I dunno.
ReplyDeletehe isnt really an "ex" i should have linked previous posts about him...
ReplyDeletei dont get why a guy would come back. i mean , we werent together and i wouldnt give in on the sex issue. what is his pay off?
I think I remember the story. Maybe he feels bad and hopes that by now you've forgiven or forgotten? Or maybe he feels enough time has passed to give you a second chance on his proposal... Could go either way.
ReplyDeleteyou are probably right. i will stop trying to figure it out and just go with what i know. he wants to get laid and for some reason, i am the lucky girl. lol
ReplyDeleteeww I'm stuck on the fact that he sent a text after that long instead of an actual phone call!
ReplyDeleteYou deserve a freaking phone call. Even if you would let it go to voicemail...
you know, i am kind of split on my thinking about the texts. for the most part, i prefer the distance of texting in situations like these, but on the other hand, like you, it seems to be a slight. i dont know. bottom line: he is a casual date at best. if he wanted to step up his game, a phone call would have been better, but it is what it is and i am not invested enough to attempt to force change.
ReplyDeletePshaw. Why choose to read so much into a single text? Who cares if he called or texted? He thought of you and wanted to see you. That is an absolute plus. And people do change. He may be willing to make concessions in his stance on premarital sex. I say give him the benefit of the doubt. Texting is just so much easier than stupid phone calls. It is less intrusive. When phones first came around, I bet people were distraught and offended if a guy called a girl instead of showing up at her house. But now we see how ridiculous that is.
ReplyDeleteI predict that he's had another candidate for delivery of sexual services, and that's become unavailable (whether services were rendered or not), so he's going through his recent candidates to see if anybody's feeling needy and ready to deliver.
ReplyDeleteI'm reminded, mildly, of Grigorii Rasputin's approach to getting sex from upper class Russian women. Rather than try a big seduction and flirtation, he'd basically say "So, you wanna go have sex with me right now?" He got slapped quite often, but he also got a fair amount of sex, and he didn't waste a lot of time with someone who wanted to flirt but not have sex.
tripp and blain-i was thinking some of the same things. i always love when the guys chime in with their different perspective.
