Kind of Annoyed at This....
| Mon, 12-06-2004 - 10:51am |
I'm a little confused. I've been dating this guy for a little over a month. We really seem to be into each other in a big way. The last three weekends we spent the entire weekend together and had so much fun. Anyway, he was driving me home yesterday evening and he says "Rob's Christmas party is next Sunday" and to that I just said "Oh, yea?" and that was the end of the topic. First, why would he tell me a week ahead of time when he hadn't even asked me to go to it? I'm feeling kind of bad about this and it doesn't match up with all of his other actions/feelings towards me (ie: wanting to be with me and telling me how much he loves being with me.)
Why would a guy do this? Should I mention something about it?

It definitely would have been nice if he'd been clear about why he was telling you, but why didn't you just ASK him since he wasn't?
He either told you because he's not going to be available to see you that evening, or because he wants you to go with him. I wouldn't assume that it's one or the other until you clarify it with him.

I strongly disagree with this advice.
A straightforward question: "hey, did you tell me about the party so that I would know to make other plans that night, or did you want me to go with you?" is NOT going to be interpreted by a healthy, mature male as "pressure".

If you ask the question in the way I phrased it ("should I make other plans for Sunday evening or did you want me to go with you?"), there should be no awkwardness at all.

Learn to talk and not to assume or jump to conclusions! Take this from a guys perspective.
