He's texted me 18 times today. 18! Once to just say good morning and another time to ask what was up. It's kind of been driving me crazy (understatement. Maybe it's just me, but 18 seems like a bit much). What the heck am I supposed to do though?! We are going to the drive-in on Thursday to see Christmas Carol and Where the Wild Things Are (he originally wanted to see Paranormal Activity, but I told him that I hate scary movies). I don't really know what I should tell him. I think it would be cool to be friends with him because he's really nice, but I would really love to avoid the whole 'I hope we can still be friends' thing because, really, who wants to hear that? No one.
I really don't need a boyfriend right now anyway. I've been stressing out so much about this HvZ thing and about study abroad and now I'm worried that I'm going to the wrong university. I was planning on writing a blog about the last of those, but then this whole ordeal came up and I was bombarded with texts.
Help.
Oh man. 18 texts? After one maybe-almost date? That's insane. That is not a good sign. Poor boy!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't advise going to the drive-in alone. I would say to at least try to make it a double date ... a group function would lead things away from approaching the "still be friends". A double feature at a drive-in is kind of leading him on ...
I've probably asked this ... but where are you planning on studying abroad?
Good luck with HvZ and the boy! =]
18 is rather a lot.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could just let him know before? Easier said than done ;)
The 'friends' line is perhaps overused but only so because people who don't mean it say it. What if you want to let a guy down, but really do want to be friends? I think if you use the line there's nothing wrong with that, as long as you follow it with actions showing that you're willing to make an effort to be friends with him.
