Well I'm back again with 'man' problems (I bet you guys were wondering when I'd have those again! No laughing Jon ^_^). There is this guy I happen to have one of those silly school girl crushes on... and well I assume he likes me too seeing as he asked for my number... but I'm confused. When we first started talking he kept telling me "I might have to invite you out sometime" and that would be okay if he didn't use the word might. I MIGHT do alot of things... like go to hollywood and have an orgy, or I MIGHT be a princess, ya just never know. Well fastforward a few weeks and he ends up asking me for my number and then he says "Well I might give ya a call sometime" smacks head on keybaord wLHFkwsjbefd, dsfh;WSKUTR FVJHlkjhg>AkjsgWhat is up with that? Oh and even when we DO talk (which is usually when I weigh his log truck on the scale at my work) he keeps asking me silly questions like "Have you ever dated anyone?" Yeah, I was engaged once and obviously it didn't work out... "What happened there?" Erm...he's gay... "Oh... where you guys fooling around and he didn't want to or something?" That's a little on the personal side, but no, didn't happen like that... "Do you still live at home?" Erm... yep, still in mommy's and daddy's house... And yadda yadda yadda, so on and so on. He also told me he was shocked that I might (there's that damn word again) want to go out with him and being the person I am, I was nosey and I asked why. "Oh, well I'm so much older and we all know how those pervy old men are and what they're after..." and of course I'm always up for a challenge and I tend fight for what I want I said "Well that's why you have to have faith in people and I don't put too much faith into cliches and sterotypes, and I don't give out more than I'm willing to offer."I'm probably making absolutly no sense what so ever... I'm a little on the confused side and I'm not sure what I'm asking other than I need some advice... anyone have any? lol

Wasting my time?

I might be able to help, lolI think when people say things like "i might have to call you sometime", or "i might ask you out sometime" its to gauge your reaction. He wants to indirectly ask you, so just in case you arent interested, he wont feel rejected.
-
Totally agree with MM&I, is he someone you have to see alot at work? Think hes interested but was a little worried about the age gap and didnt want to embarass himself with a more commited statement if you were not interested.
-
saying "might" is for not being so direct because if you don't like him, he won't feel so rejected, and it's also easier to get the words out if I say might.
-
You're weighting too much this word "might" here. You should think a bit from his point of view, and you can realize how hard is sometimes to ask a girl for a date. Anyway, you shouldn't worry that much about a single word...When I first asked my girlfriend for a "date" I was anxious, I couldn't think anything smart to say and I was acting like a dumbass. Thank god she was positive after all these :P
-
Maybe its his way of being flirty?
-
Well I've made it very clear that I like him... at least I think I did. I mean I've even asked him when he was going to ask me out and I've given him my number. How else can I get him to understand that I am interested? Gah... men... can't live with 'em and it's illegal to kill 'em lol
-
Katie i think it was said best on True Lies..."Women can't live with 'em can't kill 'em."Kates I tried to IM you...well anywho. Letting him know is the route to go.
-
Do the poor guy a favour, put him out of his misery and ask him out . I dont want to judge him from your posts but it doesnt sound like he can flirt too well from the questions he was asking in your original post. If you want something to happen be proactive go out there and get what you want (alot easier for me to say i know!).
-
Well I gave him a call right after I got off of work... and I didn't get him nor an answering machine so I don't know. Maybe I'll see him tomorrow and I'll ask him what the deal is... just have to figure out how I'm going to do it.
-
Should I just cut to the chase and ask him out myself (I'm a stuborn person and I don't like to give up so easy lol)? I wont wait forever, been there, done that and it got me nowhere.
-
exactly. if you ask him out instead, you'llfind out if he wants to or not
