Oh, pllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze.
I did.
He said he didn't have any money and wouldn't have until next week.
I said that, of course we would go dutch since we are friends.
He said no.
I said we don't have to do anything that costs money.
He said no.
So, here I am on this stupid computer another Sat. night.
Do I deserve this?
I say no.
Ima there is a fool born everyday Hun and I think he got an overdose of it if he passed you up hun!

That's why I don't ask; I can't handle the rejection. I won't even ask a guy to dance. Even if his reason is that he can't dance, I still feel like a loser.
It's funny. You hear of stories about couples meeting at the grocery store, at a red light, etc. There have been many times that a guy looked at me (seemingly interested), I look back at him and smile, and then we keep going our separate ways. I'm left wondering, "What would have happened if I had talked to him?" That fear, though, is just too much!!!

It's good to hear from the other side. Now it seems it doesn't matter who asks first, noone likes rejection, and nobody wants to play head games neither.
I think its time for everyone to rethink about what type of person they want to be with.
So far, our way is not worth the time and trouble we put ourselves through.

Maybe we need to set up a form of sign language so people can show they are interested. Like some dating sites have winks. Then you take the training for the sign language and when people see each other they can sign... woooo, nice! The other can sign... wooo, you too or...sorry, taken already, or...who...Me? Or, sorry, not looking or no, thank you. Thanks for the interest tho.

We'll guess what happen last night. Someone asked me out to breakfast. I politely said no, thank you.
Let me clarified: she is a female friend, very nice young lady, but, I found myself rejecting her offer.
It may be some truth to what people say, " the right person you're looking for, may be right in front of you"

I'm still interested in someone else. I guess until I have a full closure on this one person, I'm not ready to begin another one.
I did call her up this morning and explain my reasons to her personally.
I know excuses, excuses, (I really stuck my foot in my mouth, BIG TIME!)

Well, actually, honesty is a good thing. And honoring a commitment even if the other has not actually committed to anything yet is also a good thing. Looks like you have a focus, unlike many people.
Actually? Of all the things you have said and all the threads you have started, that last statement impressed me more than any others I have read by you. No offense. I just know what it feels like being on the females side of the man losing his focus. Not pretty. Nothing like seeing men that CAN be respectful and honorable.

I would ask a man of my choice out if I knew what to say without sounding desperate...words can be misunderstood...but things like "It would be nice if we could go/do/see/ ect. open the door for him to follow up and ask me...So if opening the door for him to ask me is considering "asking him"....then no excuse...It is a "gentle way" to be turned down or to be grabbed up...lol!

Honesty is always the best policy just not always the easiest. It was a very good thing you giving her a call and explaining.
