so what does a guy mean when he ends his email "take care and thanks for writing".
We've emailed several other times and he usually says 'talk to you later.'
Is that a blow off? It doesn't seem very open ended to continue a conversation.
Am I being nutty again!!????

Hi Donna,

Yes, you are over-analyzing, but you are in Excellent company doing so! :)

I would say that about 90% of my female friends do this. We are talking women who walk upright and have their own teeth and minimal tattoos, and Many with college degrees ( like me!) I agree with those that posted here saying that men are thinking of SO many other things first! Plus, from a very early age, men have 'selective hearing'; my sons have had it since Birth! They hear Only what they want to, and Most of what we say does Not 'stick to velcro' with them! Not 'dissing on the male gender, that is just a fact,Jack!

One more thing.. try not to spend much time thinking what the man is thinking. We only THINK they are thinking. In reality, they are Not. Phone call or email is over, and they move on to the next subject and carry very little forward. This applies to most things we do on a daily basis; eating, sleeping phone calls, emails, etc. I have tried to teach my brain to take a taxi to the next subject, and I am getting better at it! Give yourself about 3 minutes to dwell on something like this, hit it with a big "Oh Well" and move on.

keep on rolling On, Little Rock!

truly,
Cupcake
