If someone you have no romantic interest in is saying they love you and want to marry you, wouldn’t nodding along give them the wrong idea? In that case, I actually would say, hey, enough of that nonsense, let’s bang!
Oh he doesn’t really feel that way – he just does this about once a year. Generally after his birthday when he has all sorts of regrets about his life and such. I just humor him because otherwise he gets all weepy. It’s definitely not the most functional fuck buddy arrangement, but that’s why we only hook up a handful of times a year. Usually after a lot of drinks.
@MissDre – What did he do/say that made him seem insecure? I’ve dated a couple insecure guys and it can be tedious, so if I were getting those vibes early on, I’d at at best feel someone out warily. Depending on how it was manifesting, I might cut and run without feeling it out. It can be a huge turn-off.
@copa he hasn’t directly put himself down in any way but… it’s just the accumulation of little things. Each instance looked at individually doesn’t matter much but when you look at the all together… I just get insecure vibes. Talking about “famous” people that he went to high school with as though they are still good friends (knowing someone well enough to say hi at a party doesn’t make you friends lol), asking me like 10 times to look at his head shot and see if it’s ok, asking me if I disappeared because we haven’t talked in a day and a half… and he just talks so damn much. Makes me wonder if he’s one of those people who feel the need to fill every silence with chatter. I’m on the fence. But then again… he seems like a really genuinely sweet person who just wants to fall in love, and he’s very respectful. So, maybe he’s worth getting to know a bit better.
Enjoy the prettiness MissDre.
Where has Vertitek been? Hoping things with the job search are going well.
If the constant chatter is already annoying you, I don’t think that bodes well, but I also don’t think there’s any harm in continuing to get to know him better if you’re on the fence.
One of my best friends is a chatterbox and I’ve on occasion thought about how I couldn’t date her male equivalent for that reason.
@mcj2012 I’m here! I have a new job but it’s keeping me so busy I hardly have time to think! Plus my mom was in the hospital for a few days, I had a birthday, crossfit competition etc. life is busy!
On another note, I started dating a nice guy. He’s awesome and I don’t want to jinx it, so I’ll say no more 🙂
Hope everyone’s else is doing well!
Thanks @anonymousse! I’ve been working a political campaign so I barely had time to celebrate, but an ice cream cake was devoured in honor of birthday #32 🙂
Glad to hear you have a new job – do you like it How was the crossfit prom? How’s your mom feeling?
Mcj- The new job is OK. I took it because it paid really well. But I have a final interview for a job I really want on Monday. I’m in the top three candidates and have done three interviews and now I have to go in for a writing test. That’s the last step to get this job that I really want.
Mom is doing well. She finally took the steps to address her mental health issues and spent some time in the hospital, and that was a really good thing for her. It was a really good thing for our family. So as much as it sucked at the time it’s a good thing that it finally happened.
CrossFit prom was awesome. I won second place in the CrossFit competition and got a really good gift card. My friend the firefighter went with me and we had a great time and then went barhopping afterward!
