"The Crazy" Part II: Another non-relationship thread

It's personality blindness. You get to see how they all look but you dont know how much of a winner or loser they are until you meet them. It's the same thing really.

Ahh go on, post the names of your three favourites and if they don't participate I'll ban them.

Damn. Sucks for me, so much pickier on character than I am looks...

...she says, going nuts over someone who appears to have turned incommunicado...
 
Can't believe no one has mentioned this yet. Find out where he lives, steal his cat/dog and hold it to ransom until he likes you :)

Brilliant :D

Just go onto the OCuk facebook group, find 3 people who don't look like total tools (tricky) and scuzi can look them up :)

Sigh.

OK, so the guy from "The Crazy" Part I has actually disappeared off the face of the Earth. This is probably a good thing, him being older than me and somewhat of a settled grown-up man, and he wasn't really all that attractive anyway...

So what is Sara now going to waffle about? Closure and all that stuff.

So there was a guy I spent a lot of last year drooling over. A big Scot hailing from near Edinburgh way (but who now lives an hour away from me). Eventually I got the guts to make it clear I liked him, and it came to pass that he wasn't interested - so FINALLY I was able to go "Oh, OK", scrub him from the 'potentials' list and carry on. Actually quite easy to do once you know for sure.

So last week I was back with the gang that includes him (mates from old workplace), had a brilliant week skiing in the Alps, playing cards and being merry, and suddenly he was much more friendly that he'd ever been before. Prolonged eye-contact, asking interested questions about the things I get up to and enjoy doing, discussing future plans and frustrations with life, laughing at all my awful jokes and quips, talking about visiting Bristol, leaving 'x's at the end of his text messages, taking an unusually high number of pictures of me (+ scenery), choosing to sit next to me almost every time (group of 11)...

All minor stuff really but rather a change from before. It should probably be noted that I've lost nearly two stone since I last saw him.

So now, he's clawed his way up to the top of the list, and thrown me for six, and now we're back in different towns again and instead of seeing him daily it's going to be not for a while now (no plans), and he's not replied to the email (that he asked me to send!), and so it's all gone quiet again and the rather nice experience of - well, not really flirting - but the almost-knowing looks we were giving each other and shy smiles and in-jokes and silly laughter.... has disappeared, and I'm back to that almost /fear/ that I'm going to muck it all up somehow.

And to be honest, with my track record, Sod's Law is strong with me.

Logical-Sara is very clear, and tells me that if he loses interest, then he won't be worth worrying about.

Illogical-Sara is just missing him like mad already and almost trembling with frustration and worry.

The Crazy is back :(

You know, he might just have been happy to see you again. I've had this sort of thing from women in the past, and 9 times out of 10, they're just being friendly. Sure, some of them might throw in a little flirtation to make life interesting, but it's usually no deeper than that.

If you didn't actually mention your feelings for each other (or at least, drop a few heavy hints) and he's not replied to your email yet, I wouldn't even bother agonizing over him.
 
You're a strange one, Anewbe4u.

Not sure this blind date bit would go well, Sod's Law says I'll pick the ones who live in the Outer Hebrides or those already taken!

Oh, and I've deleted the Groups app from Facebook, it had got silly, was a member of all these groups that I never frequented...
