Kris Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Did I miss it? Still no day set? How long does he expect us -- um, I mean HER! -- to wait?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheBrink Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 Nothing yet. I saw him at church, he smiled at me several times, he waved, but no conversation, nothing. My friend told me to wait it out. I'm befuddled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbie Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Thats okay, play hard to get, does he have your ph. nbr or email, maybe he is going to contact you privately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binalina Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 OK what is he waiting for!!!! We are SO ready for this date - down to the earrings and the aqua sweater- does he not realize that there is a virtual verizon(WTM) network following you around living vicariously through you and watching his every move????? Iy Iy Iy Taking a breath now..... whewww :chillpill: Let's think rationally: At least he waved and smiled a few times. I would say that if he really was having second thoughts he would not have done that. I think df is right- just be patient (ugh) not my strong suit (can you tell?) Besides, this says- he's not in a rush which is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Where is Bill????? We need manly insight. :grouphug: (Me thinks he is just nervous, the guy, not Bill) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binalina Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I second that - where is Bill when you need him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree House Academy Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I am going to have to subscribe to this thread. My advice...walk up to him and say, "hi Mr. Smiley no talk, you wanna have dinner at my place tomorrow night around 7? I won't take no for an answer. See you then." ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissel Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Well, if he checks his work schedule like my DH checks his work schedule, you could be looking at November for this date! I agree with Tree House Academy; the next time you see him, go up and make nice conversation and ask if he knows his availability for your dinner get-together yet. He might also be nervous and thinking you might have changed your mind, or asked out of obligation or something (that's how my mind works, anyway :001_rolleyes:). Reassure him (subtly) that you'd really like to see him for dinner, and see where that gets you. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KayT Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I agree with your friend, I would wait it out too. I would wait for him to come to me, it's his turn if he is really interested. I mean he was suppose to get back to you about the date right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CactusPair Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I agree with your friend, I would wait it out too. I would wait for him to come to me, it's his turn if he is really interested. I mean he was suppose to get back to you about the date right? I agree! I know it's a little controversial in some circles but...have you read the book "The Rules"? I think the old-fashioned advice in that little book is great! You might want to fiind it at your library if you haven't read it. I wish someone had counselled me in "the rules" way when I was young. I plan to have my dd read it when she's of dating age. If I ever find myself in the market again (heaven forbid!) I'll follow "the rules", too.

Spy Car Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Nothing yet. I saw him at church, he smiled at me several times, he waved, but no conversation, nothing. My friend told me to wait it out. I'm befuddled. Whadda you mean waved??? How big is this church? (((((((((((mega-church?))))))))))) Who didn't walk over and say hello? HELLO! We are not worried. But we needed to launch a "charm offensive" :D Bill (who is beginning to understand how Henry Paulson is feling at the moment :tongue_smilie:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheBrink Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 It might have been me who didn't walk over to say hello. It might have been me who's petrified of looking desperate or needy. *sigh* (church size is about 400; maybe 200ish on Wednesday night) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little being the operative word Just remember, it's kind of hard to do "the maneuver" when he's not in "fawning" distance :D So what kind of shirt was he wearing? Bill (who's going to be ripped apart by she-devils if this goes wrong, and reminds you that you don't want that on your head :tongue_smilie: ) And it's not going to go wrong. Have courage!

newbie Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Maybe Bill could just email the man and get this all taken care of ! Totally kidding, and I am sure it will work out beautifully.

Ok, I get it. I need to be near enough to fawn to actually do the fawning. If I don't hear from him by Sunday, I'll try again Sunday. Oh, and he was wearing a navy blue polo shirt, tan dockers. He looks good in blue. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garga Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 How come the last post was late last night? Has no one added a post since yesterday, or is something wrong with my computer?! :confused: Has a date been set yet?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnTheBrink Posted September 28, 2008 Author Share Posted September 28, 2008 1) I used two huge cloves of fresh garlic. :D 2) We chatted today; he's out of town from Wednesday on, so we're shooting for next week. Another friend who knows him well confirmed that he's not blowing me off; if he said yes, he means it. Right now, it's just getting a day. So, I guess I'll be patient. I'm not very good at patient. :toetap05: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceyS/FL Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 HMPH. I'm late to the party and read the whole thread.... only to have to be patient. I'm not very patient either! BUT, really, the grinning - you are good to go :D I admit to having a craving for homemade lasagna now though! LOL!! Can't wait to hear how it goes.

Garga Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Ok, honestly, is anyone else a little nervous about not having a date set yet? What does Bill think? Why can't he come on Monday or Tuesday if he's not going to be gone until Wednesday? It's been a full week since you invited him!!! I haven't been on a date since I got married at 19 years old. Is this how it works? All this waiting?!? I can't stand it!!!! :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
