Guys are big chickens. No you shouldnt have your mouth wired shut. lol. Us women should be able to discuss whats on our minds without guys getting scarred away. I hope you hear from him. When someone tells me they like me I feel good about it. Its a complement isnt it? So why do men run and hide when they hear it.
You know, I have to agree. I mean we are supposed to let them have their "cave time"? I think these attitudes allow some men to get away with bad behavior in the name of "I need my space to work this out in my head...". For all his flaws (and goodness knows there were MANY), my ex never seemed to need "cave time".
I think any MATURE male who is REALLY interested won't necessarily run away and hide when he hears something nice. I think too many like playing around to keep their options "open". If they don't want to get close to someone, why are they dating? If they want casual, why don't THEY specify that up front, instead of making us guess? Then if we can't figure out their motivations, we have to have "the talk", to clear it up for ourselves, and they head for the hills, saying WE are putting the pressure on.
Oops, sorry, that turned into a bit of a rant, didn't it?

Hey Sunshine,
He is free until 8pm for work but I'm going to limit our time this afternoon to just an hour or so and cut out early.
