New meet with Teacher Guy
| Sun, 02-19-2006 - 8:39pm |
Well, I finally talked to Teacher Guy again tonight. For an hour! He's a talker but that's fine. We had a good conversation and he's interesting and funny so we decided to meet. We're not going to meet until Friday but we're planning to talk before then to firm up plans. I'm not holding my breath as of course he could ghost before then, but I am holding out the cautious optimism with this one. As long as he doesn't ask me to do shots... ;-)

What if he asks you for body shots? hehehe
Seriously though, good luck. I know you'll keep us posted so I can't wait to see!
'ghost' means to just disappear, at any stage of communication or even actual in-person
Amen to that! I am still cautiously optimistic about this meet. We've been having an easy banter back and forth. And he did something that I am seriously considering - he dumped his career in corporate America and went a different direction and became a teacher. He loves it and is very happy. I'm not happy with my job and may still be laid off so I'm considering a different line of work. His story is very interesting to me.
My second meet of this past weekend ghosted. HE suggested meeting when we talked on Thursday - said let's meet for lunch on Sunday and that he'd call Friday to confirm. He didn't call all weekend. No biggie - I wasn't that into meeting him anyway, but what bugs me is the disrespect of saying you'll call to confirm and then blowing me off. He didn't have to say we'd get together in the first place or could have sent an email saying he'd changed his mind. But no. So I closed him on eHarmony.
I'm suppose to meet this guy that I've never met before tomorrow.Today..I called and left him a message on his cell telling him the time and place to meet up.
On another note...my ex husband called me this morning.I didn't know it was him until I said hello and he said it back.I hung up on him and erased the number from my phone.This is how serious I am in letting go.I hope this isn't some kind of sign..
I gues sthe reason I'm doing this is to boost my confidence.
Wish me luck!
Good luck, but honestly, if you're doing it to boost your confidence, I'm afraid you're in for a disappointment unless you have a thick skin and a lot of confidence already! OLD is VERY difficult, disappointing, frustrating, humiliating and confidence-CRASHING most of the time. Sometimes, we get lucky and meet a great guy that we like that likes us. The other 99.9% of the time, we meet someone and there is no chemistry or they ghost on us or we like them and they tell us we're not a match or they like us a whooooole lot and we're thinking "What a loser!" So I strongly caution you to NOT look at this as a confidence booster but hopefully a way to make some new friends and get back out there socially again after your divorce.
I'm sorry to hear that your ex called. But I would also take a look at how this affected you. Were you scared, worried? You've obviously started to put this relationship into the past, but maybe he hasn't. You need to make sure that ALL issues related to him and your marriage are 100% in your past before even thinking about a new relationship. Please be careful! Not only for your sake, but for the sake of guys you're meeting.
