i’ve been on a couple dates with this guy. he’s not quite my usual type, not far off, he’s a little shorter (still taller than me, but not if i put on heels) & a bit more muscular & probably a bit prettier than i usually go for
he’s such a dry texter, but when we meet up he’s actually quite funny. idk if it’s because english isn’t his first language. he never pre-plans things, a date is always “wyd tonight ” followed by “do you wanna go for a drink”. the first time i went, it was alright, but he kinda gave off fuck boy vibes a bit
the 2nd time we met, he took me to a party with his friends & a bunch of people he knows. introduced me to everyone, was always checking that i was alright & asking if i needed a drink. i spent a lot more time with him that day & saw a different side to him. i think he’s actually really sweet now & it was nice seeing him interact with other people. he kinda acted like we were together, one of his friends even said i’d trained him well (meanwhile it was only the 2nd time we’d met so i guess we really did look like a couple). i’ve actually started to like him since then
but i haven’t really heard from him much sinc. idk if it’s cause he feels like he’s always the one reaching out (he barely says anything when he does), if he’s just busy or if i pissed him off
reasons why he might be annoyed:
(1) while we were out, we spent a lot of time with one of his friends that might’ve been a bit too friendly with me (i actually thought he was gay at first, so i didn’t think much of it). so we would dance together a lot (meanwhile he would dance next to me but not with me) & his friend would hold my hand to pull me through the crowd - which i think he wasn’t happy with, cause when id put my hand out for him to hold onto me too he wouldn’t take it. & it’s not like he didn’t wanna hold hands, cause he would always hold my hand when he was leading the way
(2) a girl friend of his, joked that she was gonna steal me from him & i played along. danced with her for one song, then went right back to him. she also said a bunch of stuff assuming we’d been going out for a while & i just kinda brushed it off jokingly like ‘i’m just here to party’. it just felt a bit awkward to be like ‘babe this is pretty much our 2nd date, please stop making it awkward 😭’
(3) the party was really hot & sweaty, him & his friends were gonna go somewhere after & he asked what i wanted to do. i was kinda like i don’t mind, but he said he wanted to shower first & said i could shower at his. i said maybe not, (we haven’t even kissed so it would be weird to get naked at his). then he was like oh so you’re going home & i said yeah & he seemed a bit disappointed
i think he likes me, but he just hasn’t made a move & after our last ‘date’ i’m even more confused about how he feels about me
i’m used to men being more obvious & showering me with compliments (even if i find it a bit hard to take compliments). he’s was really chill, has only really complimented me twice & i actually kinda thought/still think he might think he’s a little out of my league.
he’s really hard to read, so idk where i stand but i guess it’s still early. i’m gonna try texting him first (for the first time) to give back his jacket he gave me because i was cold #relationships source
