meeting someone I never expected to see again.
 

About two years ago, I met this really awesome guy. We went out, but soon decided it wasn't the right time. We'd pretty much lost touch until very recently. He found my old contact info and got in touch. We've been talking for the past couple weeks and ended up going to a concert with some of his friends. Things went so much better than they did the first time, partly because the pressure was off and we could just enjoy the night.

I'm really happy with how things turned out, but I'm trying to fight the emotional side right now (the reason I'm writing). I'm really trying to not dwell on how much I like him (I'm really picky, so often I'm ambivalent about the guys I date..not this one though). I'm also trying not to think about the "will he call me" or "what happens next." I'm not sure if he is thinking friendship only, so it's hard to know if the 48 hr. rule applies (he'll call in 2 days if he's interested) and letting him make the next move is something I should follow (I probably will follow the latter in any case).

The good thing is I have so many great things going on with my life (the new sisters, school, work, ballet) that if it doesn't work out, I'll be totally distracted so I won't dwell, but I'm not sure I'd 100% forget and move on (I moved on this past two years, but he's always been in the back of my mind).

If anything, I just can't believe how much I like this guy. I'm beyond happy that we were able to re-connect [(we knew each other in one city, then each of us subsequently moved (without each other knowing) and ended up in the same new city]. My rational side says coincidence, but I can't believe how we've been given a second chance to cross paths.

Ultimately, I want it to be his decision whether we go out again. I know I like him, but I would like it to be mutual (friendship or otherwise). At this point, I guess I just need to think positive (if it was meant to be it will work). I also really need to write my history homework so I can't dwell any longer, but if you do have any thoughts I'd love to read them!

Ivana-

If its his decision how can it be mutual at all?

Also, he has already made the first move ( a huge one), why not contact him to show that you are definitely interested beyond friendship? Thats just logical because its what you want and he isn't a mind reader.

Men can be just as emotionally insecure as women when they like someone.

Hi! How are you? Did you ever know Cashmoney when he was 20?



-Its amazing what older women, dumb bitches and sorority girls can do to a man in 5 1/2 years.

Hey James...

So I'm going to call him tommorow. (I've always found day after to be a little soon). He is not the easiest guy to figure out, but he gave some signals that makes it seem that we should definitely keep chatting.

Thanks for your input...normally I can figure this stuff out on my own, but I like this guy so much it's insane!

awwwww.... how kewwwwwwt :)

Funny; Bobby, James and myself are the only ones to respond in this thread. :D

so Cash...James seems legit, but what's up with Bobby.....

Bobby's cool. He's a Pike, and a California Pike at that. I just think ShadeyKD is in love with him. :p

Don't be jealous! :p

I knew I would get a reaction after that post. I've only read like 3 of your posts so I don't know about "the legend."

BTW....I'm a South Florida Phi Sig...

:D I got my hands full with a XO and an ADPi right now.

Your turn.....Cash says you're a Cali Pike...where in Cali are you from?

Are the people in this thread even real?

-Rudey

Shut your face Rudey! I'm not real :(

Damn yo, Bobby hasnt had his medicine today!


Where the hell is Shae????? :D :cool:

This is so insane......I knew there was a chance that I might get some reaction from you, but I never imagined you would get this defensive, or go ahead and look up all my previous posts to use them as ammo. So I didn't properly identify myself as a pledge sister (my mistake), or that god forbid I wanted to join a GLO as a grad student cos I couldn't as a UG. Oh yah, and not to mention wanting to vent about boy issues that I didn't want to dwell on over and over with my new sisters.

As to the no humor....could you possibly have thought that maybe I wasn't totally thrilled about your first comment to my post and that I in turn wasn't going to be especially friendly the next time we talked?

Oh I loved this one...you will eat me and my fupa alive????? That's just straight up offensive on so many levels.....i'm a fit size 9!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lastly....the credibility issue....All I've ever aspired to be on this board is myself....a smart, sweet and friendly hopeful greek. Before you keep going postal, or proceed to respond to this post, think about whether you had any role in exacerbating the situation!

Rudey.....see my last post.....this got way out of hand so fast....all I ever expected with this thread was that some of the other girls on the board and I would chat and discuss our boy issues, not whatever this came to be!

Just say it anaballerina, On Your Side!!!!!!:cool:

Hey Tom, I just sent you a PM
