No more Greek...

Ok so last Tuesday the Greek and I decided to meet up for drinks. We had chatted a bit via text message over the few days prior to the second date. Date one to date two was 6 days. I drive down and meet him at a bar in his neighborhood.

Order drinks (Heineken for him, Hoegarden for me). Sit at a little table in the front. Conversation went well.

At one point I got up and went to the ladies room. While I was there a woman who was part of a couple at the table next to us asked him if he was on [insert name of large dating sight here]. He says no. She asks about another less popular, kinky site. He says no. Then tells her the site he is actually on. She asked him if we met on there. He said no. Turns out that couple was on their first date from [insert name of big dating website].

Then the lady goes on to tell him that she's a psychic and can tell them I am really into him. First of all, that's weird. Second of all I wasn't that into him. I honestly probably act more interested in people than I am. And around people that I actually am interested in, I pretty much ignore them. Like the dude from work.

I digress.

I didn't think I was showing that much interest. In my mind I didn't see anything serious with this, but I was having fun. I thought it could be a fun casual thing.

We were there for a couple of hours. He walked me to my car and there was a little smooch. He wasn't a great kisser but he was far from bad. I didn't feel major sparks but I was smiling when I left. I took that as a good sign.

The next night, Wednesday, I went out to late dinner with my cousin. I told him I was going to do this. I also told him that I had friends coming to town this weekend and a all day event on Saturday and that I was babysitting my niece on Sunday. So E & I are out to dinner. Sitting at the bar waiting for my table when I get a text. I saved them all to write on here.

He says: I dont expect u to text me all the time...But I like being shown some interest 2...I know u wanna take it slow but I just wanna know how ur exactly taking this...Are we only gonna be talking whenever we hang out? Just curious...I really like u, I just wanna know whats up, thats all

Mind you this is less than 24 hours after we hung out.

I said

He said: Well we dont really...U dont have any messengers, u r always busy at work, even after work u dont text that much, i dunno...i hope it gets better thats all.

That really turned me off, but to prove a point the next day I texted him after work to say hi. Like hey whats going on kind of thing. I told him I was exhausted (true) and was going to make it an early night. So a few texts like that go back and forth.

About an hour after that he says: Is there anything else in ur mind ud like to tell me maybe? Just curious...

I said: Like what?

He said: Anything really... I just wanna hear from u, like ur news, whatever is going on... Unless u dont want to. I care, that's all. Ur too quiet, r u always like that or do you expect me to fuck up just like the other guys and ur keeping ur distance? Then again if im annoying u, u should tell me that too.

Are you readers annoyed yet? Because I am!

I said something like I had work today, then I made dinner and last night I went out with E and we had a nice time.

He said: I really dont want a full report of ur day, ur missing the point. Anyway, im not rushing either, it just seems like ur forced to say hi sometime, like that u have to.

I said something to the effect that he can't make me feel bad if I don't text him all the time. I have no privacy at work and can't be texting all the time.

Im not trying to make u feel bad at all, just trying to figure out how to work this and go with your pace i guess.

I said something like I can't win. He gives me crap if I do text him or if I dont.

Lol nvm, im not getting anywhere. Disregard all this. If you only knew how much I like you.

End of that conversation.

When we were out he asked if I could see him this Friday. I couldn't give him a definite answer because I had friends coming and I wasn't sure when. I didn't want to leave him hanging on a weekend. Friday he text messages me like I thought I was going to see you. Ugh. I said misunderstanding. He said ok don't drink and drive. So I guess he wasn't mad.

Saturday night, just after midnight I get a text: So since u havent said hi all day, hello.

I don't respond, I'm out. At this point I had been drinking for 12 hours.

Yesterday, Sunday he calls me at 4:55 PM. I don't answer for 2 reasons. One being that I am babysitting and the other that I don't want to talk to him. No message. At 5:06 PM I get a text: Hey...I wish u good luck with everything...Maybe were looking for diff things...I would at least appreciate a text or something...I know u r busy with ur friends and all, i am too... But yea, maybe down the road would be different..Take care.

6:07 PM: U have nothing to say? That was easy.

6:26 PM I say: It looks like we're on different wave lengths. I'm sorry this isn't going to work out.

THE END

PS: I'm not rereading this now because it gives me a headache so I apologize for bad grammar and typos.

Question: Do you think this is the last time I am going to hear from him?

  1. First of all I hate texting. I dont mind the 2 words here and there but an update. Maybe we need to go about finding these boys another way. Do you have any other dates lined up with anyone else?
