Moving Slowly

I get confused when guys move very slowly.  I think, "Well, he seems interested, but he isn't trying to do much else."  This is confusing because most girls think guys want to hook up, but when they don't try...

Keep Trying To Reach Me

Firm believer that if a guy is really interested, he will call, write, text, etc even if I don't respond to all of his attempts.  Think about it, every time you are eh about a guy, you can't seem to shake him.  I've had guys call me everyday for 30 days straight with me only picking up on one call.  I've had guys stop by my apartment after not being able to reach me through email or the phone (a little stalkerish, but I get it).

Difference Of Opinions

I go on dates to give guys a shot.  I've gone on more than six dates to give Smart Guy a chance.  Unfortunately, he might not be seeing it the same way.  It seems like he thinks things are much more serious than they are.  Well, I don't know what to do about this.  Think my friends are right, I might in a relationship and his girlfriend in his head.  He tries to talk to me everyday too.  Until he tries to claim this girlfriend thing out loud, I am going to pretend I am unaware.

OkCupid Activity

There has been a flurry of OkCupid activity.  Why has there been so much activity?  I got five emails in one day and I haven't updated my profile.  Too bad I don't want to talk to most of these guys.  Guys, if you write a generic email, you will not get a response!  If you write something dirty, you are not getting a response!  If we are polar opposites, you are not getting a response!

Complicated

Technology has made dating much too complicated.  Most of us google/facebook/linkedin stalk new guys/gals we meet.  I know a lot more about my first dates than they think I know.

Check out this chart.

I still stick by NOT texting a guy after a date.  It's not just texting, it's calling, emailing, facebooking, etc.  If a guy likes you, he WILL contact you.  Besides, aren't you too busy with your other 15 guys to be staring at your phone waiting for this one guy?

"Pullback"

I heard guys do the "pullback" when dating.  Pullback meaning things are going swimmingly well, then they need to pullback to regroup.  Well, I guess I do the same thing.  In my case, wouldn't say things are going swimmingly well, but I do need some time to think.

Girlfriend?

My friends are telling me Smart Guy thinks we are in a relationship and I am his girlfriend.  That's odd, I don't remember having a DTR (define the relationship or) WAW (what are we) type of conversation.  Yes, we typically see each other on the weekends, more Saturdays than Fridays.  Yes, he does hold my hand.  I am no one's girlfriend without a discussion.  Furthermore, I have some issues with him.  For example, I was very sick last weekend, which he knew.  He didn't even ask me if I was okay or if I wanted him to bring me anything.  That's a very bright RED FLAG!
