Pink Floyd Day ( Archived) (7)

I am having one of those days....I met this guy, real nice guy (I don't think he is on this site, at least I hope not). And I am beating myself up about our meet. Did I say too much, did I act too desperate, did I scare him off? I know he has been busy but if a guy is interested don't they try to make contact (more then email) withing the first two or three days?

What is the timeframe I should be going for here so I can get out of this funk? I thought we clicked pretty well, so help me out here.

I don't believe two or three days means anything. Some people have full schedules and limit themselves to certain days for socializing. And being as how you've just met, I'd give it some time and take it as it comes.

no need to beat yourself up dear. Just go on with yourself, and put him and your meeting in the back of your mind.

Trust me, he'll notice your desperation and that scares them off Acting casual is better, even if you don't feel like it. A person once told me some very good advice. "If a person thinks that you are lint in his pocket, that's where you will stay." True, very true... think about it, you always have lint, and what do you do with it? Most likely, nothing....I literally pined over this guy for almost 2 years, (worked with him 6 days a week), after my friend told me that, (it was his friend as well), I quit acting like and sure enough, within a few weeks, he came to me. Of course, once I started to get over him, there was no way I was going to go out with him ever again...lesson learned for the future!

You'll be fine....

It is hard though, I have never been very good at all this stuff and I know both of you are right:)
Hell, if I was good at it I would have a warm body and not be on this lovely site now would I? :)

I guess my last relationship was worse then I orignially thought and has caused a few hang ups, I know I have them and I want to work them out for myself (since they are mine) but Damn It this sucks :)

Thanks so far advice from others does help.

we all suck, that's why we are here, trying to sort it all out---you are NOT alone!

If it was easy, it probably wouldn't be worth your while. Remember that it takes time to find the right person. Sometimes its the first one, sometimes you have to be patient. The main thing is that you never lose faith. Self confidence is always a plus. Most of all, take things in stride and never quit on yourself. Dreams come true.
