OK, you remember the guy that I met last week that had asked me a million questions on the meet and then called me before I had gotten home to tell me how interested he was and how he had to give me a hug in the street because he was so interested in me? OK, I hadn't heard from him until an email last week and I knew I had to send the brush off so I said:
<>
I usually hate saying "good luck" (it seems condescending) but I don't know how else to end it! So anyway, he replies back with:
<>
Ummm, yeah. You felt the same way, huh? That's why you called me 2 minutes after I left and told me how interested you were and how you had this irresistible urge to hug me in the street because you were so interested but now all of a sudden after my brush off to you, you felt the same way? Whatever dude. And what the heck does the "false start or off day" thing mean? I don't understand that - is it a put down of me or is he saying he wasn't himself or what?

Yeah, he's just trying to save face...
As for "false start or off day" - maybe it was himself thinking there was more there (false start) or he realized afterwards that his perception of some connection was incorrect, or
OK, that makes sense. And yes, it was nice it wasn't a nasty gram. But I had to laugh b/c I went back and listened to the VM he left 2 minutes after we left (yes, I saved it because WOW - is it a voice mail) and he goes on for several minutes with lots of "you knows" telling me how attractive and funny he thought I was yadda, yadda. Sure, "love" at first sight is often cured with a second look but good grief! But I'm still "Whatever" on his "I felt the same way".
I need to make sure I am out of my cynical attitude tonight. I am meeting Teacher Guy for happy hour. I am nervous but excited. He sent another picture and he is cute! Not conventionally handsome or usually the kind of guy I go for right off, but attractive in a high shcool football coach kind of way. And funny and our conversations have gone well, so I am HOPING that this one goes well. Sigh - I really need a good first meet for once!
