SJ.COM All-purpose dating thread

Jesus Christ ... I'm sorry, too.

Sorry for asking and sorry for trying to be a little bit happy. I'll go back to being miserable.
 
If a guy likes you, he'll make it happen. So be happy amac. Be upfront with him and tell him you are into him. Or ask if he's into you. Just make it happen. :)

Exactly.

Then again, I'm the worst when it comes to reading women and their feelings.
 
You shouldn't have to read someone. People just need to be upfront about feelings. I never had to wonder if Doc had feelings for me. He was completely up front and we are still up front with each other about everything.

If people didn't play mind games or try to read signs and just told someone they liked them, life would be so much easier.

I think I've had one girl tell me she liked me without me having to figure it out. We lasted just short of a week because she moved back to Texas to be with an ex.

That's what I consider playing games, KY.

Well, there were extenuating circumstances that led to her going back. Just some things we could never overcome and I didn't really want to fight over after some time.

It is possible for a guy to send a message or make a phone call, just to say hi, or I'm thinking about you, or I miss you, or I love you, and not have it mean anything more than what is being overtly communicated. I've done it, and I like to do it. Maybe I just want to hear your voice before I go to sleep. Things like that are reassuring.

Thank you.

I do it too. For that same reason.

I know that some people, men and women, might call that being needy. Or they might feel like it's a chore. I'm not one of those people. If I'm in a relationship, I want her to know that I'm thinking about her and not just in THAT way, and I like to know she's thinking of me too.

It's just......nice. That really is the best way I can describe it.

Ah, see but that is a different situation, I believe. AMac's not in a relationship with this guy (I don't believe) but wants to be.

Clearly, when in a relationship, that is definitely something that can happen. My point was that if there isn't some tie other than friendship (or, potentially, wanting to get laid - and only that), most guys aren't going to just text or call to say "thinking of you," there is usually something more there.

I think you are more than right in being happy AMac and good luck. Let us know how it turns out.
