I guess he caught on after I ignored EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. Ferrill has a girl, huh? Good for him. If his whining/worrying is anything like J? Oh, hon ... you got a <i>long</i> road ahead of you.ThirtyWhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15013731537383431181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238596.post-36062036863743657882013-09-04T21:12:52.149-05:002013-09-04T21:12:52.149-05:00Ugh...

Ferrill has been flirting with a girl online, and texting all this "should I do this or that bla bla bla" and then freaking out when he does do something and second guessing himself. He went out on his first date with this girl and called us at 12:30 am waking us up and gushing about it. On the one hand, yay for you. On the other hand, I'm sleeping, leave me alone, and stop whining/worrying.Stephalopolisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238596.post-48405928925289730752013-09-03T14:48:01.745-05:002013-09-03T14:48:01.745-05:00I suspect everyone has wondered, "Am I still ...I suspect everyone has wondered, "Am I still date-able?" now and then. And whether it's me getting a divorce or him losing his wife suddenly, nobody wants to be alone.<br /><br />Having said that ... <br /><br />I think I would be alright assuring him now and then. It's the constant, never-ending emotional hand holding that is wearing me down. This latest girl has told him explicitly that she doesn't like to feel pressured by men ... that the last guy she met online wanted to be exclusive after the first date and she did *not* like that. <br /><br />After this last date (their second), I asked if he held her hand. He said no ... that she spent most of the afternoon with her arms crossed. He asked me, "Is that a bad thing?" I told him no ... it wasn't *bad* ... but it meant she wasn't comfortable with physical contact. He needed to respect her boundaries and *she* would let him know when she was ready for more.<br /><br />He's flat out ignored me and says he's kissing her when they go out for dinner Wednesday. Okay then. Good luck with that. Be sure to smile for the mugshot.ThirtyWhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15013731537383431181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238596.post-40198466786203540322013-09-02T03:55:16.628-05:002013-09-02T03:55:16.628-05:00Girl friends tend to be better audiences for this ...Girl friends tend to be better audiences for this kind of "I wonder if she likes me..." and "You think this is a sign?" talk. I've got a few guy pals with whom I _can_ get into it, but it's better with my female friends. Can't speak for anyone else, but there's me.<br /><br />And no: it's not something I indulge in very often. But sometimes I have to be reminded that I'm still dateable. It can be a tough thing to wonder, as you may have experienced.onebadscrivenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14369040536178632130noreply@blogger.com
