It's been two weeks now since I went out with the model. Still no update there--he's been in California for work, and I'm busy this coming weekend, so the next time we can get together isn't until next week--over three weeks after our first date. It feels like an eternity.
The thing is, I think it's true that absence does do a little something. Our first date went well, and I do want to see him again, but it was still only one date, so it's too soon to really have feelings or really know much at all other than we'd just like to go out again. Yet.... I find myself missing him a little. And it has little to do with how well our date went, and more to do with how long it's been since I've seen him. Now I find myself thinking about him, wishing we on more of a regularly texting basis (but holding myself back from contacting him too much because it's too early to be clingy). Ugh. I hate all the stupid "rules" of dating. But I do find it funny how delaying our second date is messing with my head.
In other news, there's a guy at work who definitely has a crush on me. I don't know him well enough to have a strong opinion about it, but he seems nice, so I'd go out with him (boy, are my standards that low?). Stay tuned on that.
Trying to stay positive,
Skeptic
How are things going with the model?
ReplyDeleteStill haven't seen him again! We have plans for next week. It's been forEVER....
DeleteAt least you have some plans on the books! Most guys seem to disappear if a girl is too busy - heaven forbid, she can't be available 24/7.
ReplyDeleteDo you actually like the guy who crushes on you? It's worth exploring as long as it doesn't leave things weird at work (whether the date goes well or poorly)
Yes, I'd go out with the guy at work, and it's pretty risk free since he works for a different division and our work paths wouldn't ever cross. He needs to make the move, though, because I wouldn't. He does stop by my desk often enough....
DeleteI just skimmed through more of the Rules (ok ok, I was bored on a plane) and it talks about the guys who keep talking/texting but never ask you out. Basically, just forget them. If he makes a move, awesome! If he doesn't, his loss!
DeleteWell, I wouldn't go quite that far yet--it hasn't been very long with the guy at work. But I'll watch out for that!
