    Yes, I think a girl/woman with lots of interesting plans and stuff to do with her life is much more attractive to a guy 🙂 As long as she still shows excitement about seeing him and makes active plans to see him, so it doesn’t seem like it’s excuses and doesn’t discourage the guy. It’s like “Look, I really want to see you, I am really into you, but I also have an awesome life and friends and family I love and have lots of fun with”.

    The guy I was saying I am not feeling, he sent me the sweetest text saying he would really like to see me again. I spent like 30 mins composing the “perfect” rejection text – firm enough not to lead him on, but still kind and compassionate so I don’t seem like a heartless b*tch. 😀
    Thankfully he took it very well, very mature and sweet as always (which kind of made be feel even more guilty).

    Now game over, I’m back to square zero, replay. I am not liking this whole (dating) game. Is there a way to just skip all the squares and go to happy ending?!

    The DW dating community will be the first I’ll share with, promise!
    (perhaps only after my single friends who are also dying to know this! 🙂 )

    Tinder Teacher confirmed for the 29th! And I’m going to get a key to the capitol dome from an old co worker and take him to the top! That’s not lame right? He called me Leslie Knope lol

    Woot, woot, veritek! That date plan sounds swell! And great signs, ktfran!

    The Second City date was fine. Well, I mean the show was great! I just wish I could ovary up and decide if I want to see this guy again. He’s leaving for Europe this evening so I kind of have to let him know now OR wait a week and a half, see if this fizzles out SLASH let him know when he gets back? He’s pretty clear that he wants to see me again after hegets back. He is generally a good person. Both times he’s surprised me. It might just be an attraction thing.

    Can I be a little sensitive though? I lightly asked the hypothetical of if you won the lottery, would you quit your job? He answered, then asked, “How about you? Oh wait, you have to get a job first.” It really was a joking manner but I’m kind of sensitive about it since I told him about a not great interview from Monday. Blerg.

    I wish guys who show interest in me are guys I definitely am interested in.

    @hfantods that’s kind of a dickish thing to say. I would find that a turn off personally. I wouldn’t like it if anyone made a joke like that at my expense, much less someone I barely know. Of course he could just have a different sense of humor. It sounds like at this point there’s more cons than pros. You could always date other guys and go out with him again when he returns from Europe (if you want). Diversify your dating portfolio.

    @hfantods Is this the same guy that was causing you to rethink your plan to drive to Ottawa? Because that is a very dumb thing to say, so maybe rethink again.

    @hfantods that WAS a dickish thing for him to say. If you’re not all in, I’d walk away.

    Sounds like he totally put his foot in his mouth. Which is no excuse. It’s a pretty insensitive thing to say to someone.
