It's funny, but it's not.
I've been taking Pastor's advice about giving Izzy the cold shoulder. He's been kind of a pain a couple of times anyway, and I'm tired of him. I wanted to back him off. He just wants to play the field...it's not what I'm interested in.
Pastor even mentioned that my body language was different with Izzy...that I leave my arm open towards him when we sit next to each other. GREAT! So, I've been watching that, and not sitting near him, and my hugs aren't as long.
So...of course...now it's like a dog you can't unGLUE from your side. He sits next to me at every function, even if there ISN'T a place for him to sit. He watches me (and yes, men, we DO have peripheral vision...so if you're sitting right in front of us we can SEE you watching, even if we're looking at someone else). He's sitting next to me inSTEAD of his friends and sister. We went to visit a church in another town Sunday morning. We had breakfast together at Pastor's house first...I sat between two people, he came in late and pulled a chair up at the CORNER of the table...to sit next to me. Even though there was a chair on the other side of the table empty. I didn't leave a place for him to sit, so he sat across the aisle (we sat at tables, like a fellowship hall) and when we stood to sing or pray he stood IN the aisle, next to me, instead of behind his chair. He came and sat ACROSS from me at the dinner afterwards. He watched me eat, he showed concern that I hadn't gotten any lamb from the buffet table, He gave me some of HIS!...
It really irritates me when men respond to being ignored. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM!

LOL, would you believe I dated a guy I couldn't dump?

There is something he likes about you - and he is making that obvious!!
Keep ignoring him and try not to let it get to you, seniorita!!
How do you know he just wants to play the field?
I find this very irritating. I get more actual communication from Trav now than I did when we were "seeing" each other.
what is the problem with just being up front? It's annoying....
I've had several people tell me this is "part of the game"...but I don't like games with grown up people. And by the time I'm OUT of the notion, they're IN it...blah
I'm pretty sure he likes EVERYTHING about me. He has actually
Well at least it is a little flattering to have the attention. But it doesn't sound like you are flattered - more like flabergasted.
I think a chill is in order - do something different on Saturday.
How would you react if he did want the real mccoy (relationship/gf thing)?
I won't be flattered unless it's mostly me he flirts with. It has been that way the last few times I've seen him. I wouldn't trust it unless it becomes a habit. And unless he wants a publicly acknowledged dating situation, he's out of luck. I'm respected in our little family, and I won't be sneaking around with anyone. He can take all or nothing. He'd be very lucky to have me.
If he wanted to date me, just me...period, I'd give it a chance.
Okay - fair enough and I agree. I guess you just have to chill and wait and see.
Yes - he - or anyone for that matter - would be very lucky to have you. I believe you have a lot to offer with your wit, experience, wisdom, intelligence and good heart.
All or nothing - I like that saying. I would do exactly the same thing.
