Hey everyone!

Well my situation is a bit strange and not really sure what to do! I met this guy at a party at Christmas time and its very bad, but I was so drunk I couldnt remember him at all! We kissed alot at the party and he asked for my number, then the next few days he was texting. However, it dwindled away and nothing came from it. However, about a month ago randomly he text me asking how i was etc.. from there on we have text alot. He asked me to meet him, or asked to go round to his.. I was put off by this and didnt go! But now its at the stage where we text each other everyday! I now know who he is and he has seen me in the flesh too, but in person we have never spoken! I do like him.. which is very strange because I feel that I really dont know him. I only know this guy on the texts?? I am very shy, so we came to the agreement of meeting sometime when we are both out, and not sober! Is this the right thing to do? I keep wondering whether to carry on texting because it just seems like nothing is going to happen. Also, he said he feels the same way about me.. i think maybe, its not the fact that we like each other for who we are, more for the sake of just having someone! All advice is welcomed! Thanks x

geemaster5000...

Pianoguy is COMPLETELY TURNED OFF by text messages. . The process strikes me as cold...and this is the reason I don't respond to any that I receive.

In your case....how can you possibly tell if a man REALLY WANTS TO GET TO KNOW YOU if all you see are a bunch of stupid words? Talk is cheap. Actions speak louder than words!

If this gentleman is honest about his intentions, the very least he can do is ask you out for coffee? But if he's more content to keep on "playing the same game...DUMP HIM!!

To quote a great rock 'n' roll song by Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels: "There are too many fish in the sea!"

yeah thats the thing... for a while he kept asking me to meet him but i wasnt sure at that time! Really didnt know and he got the idea that i didnt want to go over to his flat like he asked me to do. Then he asked if i wanted to go to the cinema, but then nothing definate was spoken about. Then we both suggested meeting casually some night when we are out... but not very drunk, just with a drink in us! Less pressure that way!

Yeah, we both thought it would be a better idea to meet casually first while out!! And he has asked me to meet him jst to go to cinema or somethin, but i said no cos i really wasnt interested at the time!

Well dont think im gonna do anythin just now, if we meet then we do.. im not gonna initiate meeting anyway! Will just wait and see!

Thanks anyway
