That’s a great update Miss Dre 🙂 Glad you had fun
@copa I think you’re doing everything you can. All you can do is offer support and he can reach out if he needs it. This guy I went on the date with Sunday, I’ve had to cancel on him twice due to my father’s health issues and he was very understanding and offered up help if he could do anything. I would have never taken him up on it but it was still a very kind thing to say. We’ve planned a date for Sunday and I’m looking forward to it!
@kmen I hope things settle down and he realizes that was a real asshole thing to do. You seem very happy with him and I hope that continues and I hope he realizes that was shitty.
@copa – yes, I’d like to give him another chance, with caution, if that makes sense? Sunday on our date he was like a different person than the guy I met last summer. He was flirty an complimentary and just seemed more interested than he was last time. I’m just a little guarded because I’m wondering why he is now and why he didnt’ seem to be last summer. Was he really bored and just texted to see whoever responded or is he ACTUALLY interested? Time will tell I suppose, but for now we have another date scheduled for this weekend! (And Dad is being discharged today so my life can go back to relative normalcy now!)
yay Copa and Dre!! That’s wonderful news from both!!
My dad is doing a thousand times better (still in hospital but hopefully coming home tomorrow!) So I was able to sneak away for a date last night. Just beers at a local bar but it was nice! It was the guy from last summer and he really is fun to hang out with like I remembered. He’s already asked me out again and I said I’d like to do that. Not much to report but three hours of awesome convo and good beers!
@copa tacos are hard in the Midwest lol. I had some in the hospital cafeteria that looked DELICIOUS but had no flavor whatsoever. I was so excited to eat them too! Looks were very deceiving 🙂
We always make Mexican food for Easter so I’ll just make better tacos myself.
@copa eagerly awaiting a date update
@missdre I hope you have a wonderful time!!
@copa this guy sounds super fun so far! We can call him taco guy, since he knows your fave taco place. Or Taco Tim/Taco Tom if you’re feeling formal.
@copa you can absolutely add me 🙂 It’s a public account so I don’t put anything too private on there. You’ll have to send me a DM so I know it’s you!
Dad was readmitted to the hospital last night so I’m sure I won’t be going on any dates soon. It was just nice to be asked out again I suppose. I might go have a drink with him just to get out of the hospital and get a distraction.
Hey guys, opinion poll.
I went on a couple dates with a guy last summer that was new to town and I though they went really well. But after those couple dates he kinda faded and then I got laid off, job searched, changed jobs a couple times, never heard from him and honestly kind of forgot about him.
In early March he sent me a text asking how I was etc. I was pretty wary so just responded as little as possible but it developed into a decent conversation and he still texts a couple times a week. Long story short, he told me last week he wanted to apologize for ghosting me in August. He said moving to a new town, starting a new job, buying a new house etc was a lot on his plate (agreed) and he got caught up in making friends and adjusting and if I could give him a second chance he would love to take me out because “I remember we had a great time together and I think you’re very cute.”
Would you go out with the guy again? I’m inclined to say yes and just go grab drinks and see if it’s worth pursuing again. But the other part of me says hes bored and he started dating someone else and it didn’t work out and he’s just going back through his phone and seeing who will respond. Thoughts?
I wish I had fun updates but my dad has been hospitalized for the last week (bypass and stroke) so my life has ground to a halt. I had to cancel a date and miss a wedding I really wanted to go to. And he’s my dad so I can’t be mad, but let this serve as a lesson to everyone – take care of your health now.
Yeah I don’t think this guy is gonna get another chance. I talked to our mutual friend about him doing this and she said unfortunately that’s kind of how he is. He apparently gets very one track mind and jumps from one thing to the next without regard for time or other people. He was 3 hours out of town and didn’t think to leave until 9 pm? Clearly at no point did me or my time schedule/feelings cross his mind. And if someone is like that on a first date, I can’t imagine they get much better.
It mostly pissed me off because we rescheduled this twice. Because of him. He clearly wasn’t that interested in going on the date.
Hfan- date never happened. He was out of town and we hadn’t set a time yet. I checked in with him at 5 PM and he kept putting me off saying he was still out of town and finally canceled at 9:00 Because I told him I was not gonna wait till midnight to go on a first date. So honestly I’m a little bit pissed. Waste of a Saturday night.
Thanks KT and Copa! I’m looking forward to meeting him since he seems very nice. I think we are just going to grab some margaritas and take it from there.
Unrelated but worth shouting from the rooftops: I have ridiculous insomnia that I inherited from my mother and average about 3-4 hours of solid sleep each night. Last night I was out at happy hour and got a call that my massage place could get me in RIGHT NOW so I got a deep tissue massage that was amazing. Slept a solid 7 hours last night and feel like I can take on the world now haha! Apparently all it takes is a beer and a good massage!
