i didn't tell him i wanted to be friends yesterday. i simply asked him if from here, if he would rather be friends or more, and he told me he has enough friends. that's all.


So call or text him already the suspense is killing me laugh

Good Luck hope it works out for you both

I text him, we'll see! Nothing yet, lol... I am however taking into consideration he's busy working on a project. WHO KNOWS. This is just what happens when you take a chance I suppose!

i actually have a female friend who is way to clingy for my tastes. so i know what you mean. but 1 text a day just to show you care to a guy who is interested isn't likely to feel like smothering.
IMO

I am kinda talking to a guy that drove an hour to see me last Saturday, and then turned around and wanted to take me on a lake trip on his boat Tuesday evening. We got back yesterday, and when he dropped me off, he immediately text me and thanked me for the trip. Before all this, I was kind of stand-offish and told him I wasn't really looking for much...he told me he was wanting a relationship. Then we decided to just keep an open mind when we met last Saturday, and then go from there. During our ride home yesterday, I actually asked him if he would like to remain friends, and he told me he had enough friends, that he still wanted more, so IDK if that's something he was just telling me, or what. I haven't heard from him yet today, though he was supposed to be busy all day working on something. If he's into me, shouldn't he be trying to talk to me every chance he gets? Or am I completely off? Just looking for some opinions... If I DON'T hear from him today, should I just shrug it off that maybe he WASN'T so into me? Ahh!
YOu dont want him but you want him to continue to want you. Ya youre playing him.laugh

I think that we don't want to seem desperate (even if we are!). Perhaps we (men) may even realize that a woman may feel pressured if we call every day (or more) right off the bat.
Recognize the guys dilemma. Call every day often and risk seeming needy or desperate, or do not and appear un-interested. Fine line I think.

It isn't clear to me from your post if you really are, may be, or definately are not interested in him though.

You played him.

If you weren't interested in anything other than a "friendship", then you shoulda told him right off the bat. As it was, you led him around only to give him some other story after the little boat trip of yours had concluded. If he doesn't call back, it's probably more because he's more-or-less disgruntled (if not just plain pissed off) at what happened. A fella can only take so much disrespect, you know?

Not only that, why else did you think he went out with you in the first place? To show you his boat? It would be rather naive to think that you weren't going out on a "date".

And -speaking as a person who's gone through this very crap in the past- I can understand what he went through. If more people were more forthcoming about their intentions, perhaps there'd be fewer angry, anti-dating types roaming around this rock.

Also, another way to look at it is that he is getting exactly what he wants and is actually playing you. Here is how:

The two of you do all that wishy washy boaty stuff, you have the conversation about being friends, bla bla bla... He will then act indifferent towards you, which is the bait. This guy has class AND practice... he may have already known that you were going to play the "Friend Card" prior to the date. You are playing right into how he wanted you to react, your thinking about him and doubting your better judgment.

Let him play all the cards at this point, you know you already have a hand full of aces. Just don't let him bluff you into thinking he has a flush when he doesn't.
