What Not To Do
I saw JM again.
This time, I sent him an email basically giving him my number since we had only been communicating via emails and online messaging. I invited him to the Zombie movie/BBQ. Oops. Did I forget to include that minor detail a few entries ago? So is it a big no-no to invite someone you barely know [at least, under these circumstances] to an event that your friends are throwing? I didn’t really introduce him to anyone since it was all dark outside, and people were coming and going. Does that make it okay?
The evening ended awkwardly. At least, to me it did. Am I just way too observant of the silences? I think I am. I worried that I’d totally messed it all up, even though at this point, I’m not sure where I stand along the lines of interest, but I do think he’s cute. I’m totally jinxing this by writing about it. That’s what happened to MH. I wrote about him, and shortly thereafter, he was dating this hyperactive young thing.
Anyway, JM’s contacted me about lunch. A good sign? GAH!
Sidenote: A guy I met recently asked when he could take me out for dinner. It was awkward as I tried to figure out if it was a date or not [just as friends]. I’m starting to think that was what he was going for since he kept trying to get me to pinpoint a time and location. I think he’s nice and all, but I am really not that interested… I don’t like it when people are pushy like that, so I hope [with fingers crossed] that he is just looking for a friendly dinner companion.
