Got a guy's name wrong
| Thu, 06-08-2006 - 8:49pm |
Hi,
I have been so busy this week at work and with my daughter. I finally got time to e-mail this guy I met on e-harmony. I was on the phone with a client, and I accidentally typed Dear (client's name), instead of the guy's name. Now the guy is miffed and thinks I am dating all kinds of people and that he hopes the other guy got my message....
Mind you, we have only talked once on the phone last night... I feel awful. I e-mailed him to explain. Oh well. Have any of you done this????

Yes I've done it. And if he's an adult, he would accept you made a mistake. And further, you are dating other people so what is the problem with that? I would say this guy may be a bit too insecure... JMHO

You're only human. Accidents happen. Whether or not he chooses to believe your explanation is his problem. You know what happened, and offered him a sincere apology. I think that should be good enough.
If he's that wound up over it this early in the game, what comes next?
Well, I can understand forgetting someone's name, but I can also understand why he's miffed.
I say "so what?" The thing about OLD is that we are all out there to look to date/meet/create a relationship with someone. It is naive to believe that I am "the only one" in the OLD world, especially if I had only one phone contact. I have women tell me that they are dating around.
