It's possible that the guy wouldn't answer because he doesn't want the girl to move on.

Some guys like to string along girls because it strokes their ego. They can justify this action by saying 'I never told her I liked her'.

If they guy can't answer a direct question then I think it's in the best interest of the girl to assume his answer is 'No, I don't like you'.

If a guy never replies to me when I ask him the question, I always assume that he doesn't like me. Like my dad taught me, if a guy likes you, he will let you know 99.9% of the time. Obviously, there are exceptions but still. I've known a guy who stopped talking to me after I said, "Look, you know that I have feelings for you but since you never did or said anything to indicate that you feel the same way, I feel it's best I moved on." When I originally revealed my feelings, he started talking to me but once I said that, he stopped talking to me. I'm assuming that he realized that I'm gonna stop paying him the attention he wants. I mean, I pretty much gave him the opportunity to say whatever but he pushed the advantage to the side & said nothing. I can't bother with a guy who can't even say, "I like you as a friend." I honestly think it would be better to hear those words, than nothing at all. At least it shows he's considerate.

This is for Becca:

I had 4 firemen around me the other night veebs. You must have felt it.

I'm making this scrap book for nick. part of this book I'm making him is I have this binder and in it is every love letter I've written him and not mailed. Plus all the texts and emails and letters he's sent me. All from the past 5 yrs we've been dating and I am putting them in sheet protectors as a collection for him. I thought it would be nice since we've reconnected and are doing so much better. Plus, I thought it would be a nice reminder that for some werid reason we really do love each other

That's very cool Becca! Nick will love this.

hope so. Since something seems to be buggin him an he's got his cell off today.

I dont get why men do the nothing's wrong routine and go MIA or clam up. why is it like pulling teeth??

I can answer this

It's because we don't know if it's going to turn into an hour long conversation. I don't like answering the 'what's wrong' question.

they clam up because they don't want us to figure out that NOTHINGS wrong w/ them really. that's their way of throwing a fit. give him some time to calm down. they should just answer and say, "i'll talk to you later when i feel better. don't call till then."



she's your wife. if it lasts 3 hours she deserves to know whats wrong w/her husband.

She does deserve to know, that's true. But sometimes the long conversation does more harm then good.

if I don't call he thinks something is up so I call even if he doesn't want to talk. He's not wanted company really lately. It might have something to do with some trouble he had gotten into right before we got back together. I dont' know.

yeah RC nick doesn't like to talk for hours unless it ends talking about skiing I took him skiing right before I got so sick. I just don't feel like skiing again right now

What kind of trouble?

he was doing some web stuff for this guy and after he got part of this stuff set up he figured out it was kinda illegal so he quit and said he wasn't going to finish and he wanted the money he put into back. Well the guy said no and said if he raised a stink about it that he would come find nick. Nick argued the point cause A, he's a man. B, he stands up to threats. C. he's too macho for his own good. So they got into a bit over a few days. And nick finally dropped it when the guy made a threat about how he wouldn't want to see him in the hospital with a couple of holes in him. nick got the drift an shut up. I just wonder if this guy has tried to contact nick to scare him or something. And no, nick had no idea what was going on before he agreed to do this thing for this guy and quickly quit when he figured it out.
That's my boyfriend....always mixed up in other people's junk.

that sux... but what does that have to do with you?

oh the fact he doesn't say anything til he thinks it's either better or worse. Which makes us have this weird thing between us til he confesses.

by now he should know something. he still hasn't answered his phone? i hope it gets better for you guys. you were just talking about making that scrapbook, too which i thought was so creative and thoughtful. keep us posted.

If he wants a relationship with you, he needs to be honest and share things with you. I hope he's ok.

he'll be okay til I get ahold of him If I had a car right now I wouldn't be sitting complaining about it.

You are so bad Becca

i know. i had a better one but edited cause I thought oh that's gonna get deleted I bet

So does Nick like Christina Ricci?

not so much. He just says, yeah you both look alittle alike.

I got ahold of nick. He phone was on silent and he hadn't noticed. But when he picked up he was all why are so cutesy and coy? I was just tired and we talked an he's not in trouble or anything and why didn't I call the house? Cause he leaves it unplugged most of the time so a million different people aren't always tracking him down.
I did ask can you give me the numbers of some hot guys who want to go out. And he said very funny you got the one number you need already. Awwwww.

I think I'm developing a crush on this guy that I liked in high school. I was madly in love with him from grade 8 till the end of grade 11. He was this gorgeous Italian guy. Anyhoo, I added him on facebook & since my sister thought he was good looking, she asked to look at his photos together. And wow, he has gotten even hotter since we graduated 5 years ago. It would be kinda weird to message him out of the blue, as he would get suspicious so I'm hoping to run into him & I cannot wait till the high school reunion, which is 5 years away . Looking at him makes me forget all about Mikey & it makes old feelings rush back.

It wouldn't be weird to message him, that's what FB is for.

Him making you forget about Mikey is very cool! You and Mikey may have a future together, but he needs to grow up. You moving past Mikey is a good thing.

Pip- go ahead and send him a message. You never know.

That's true. The only factor that would make it weird is the fact that we have not talked in pretty much forever. Than again, there's nothing wrong than a simple, "hi, how are you?"

I think everything's over between Mikey & I. I honestly cannot remember the last time we have talked. If we happen to remain friends, great but it won't upset me if we continue to drift apart to the point where we no longer communicate. And yes, he does need to grow up. I saw something on his FB profile that made me laugh:

Random girl (I say that because I don't know her): hehehe how is the romantic book writing going? lol

Mikey: haha its going so good.I can't believe all i have to do is write from the heart:)hehe

RG: lol...remember that day at the beach when with lorena last summer? talking about that romantic book "Love Languages" and you were very understanding of our need to talk about such stuff whats new with u?

Mikey: of course i remember that day at the beach...goodtimes:)I am very understanding to the love languages and because of you two girls I have wrote the best book ever to be released soon.It's all from the heart:)haha we need to go to the beach again:)

I lol'd .

So Mikey wrote a romance book? That he's writing from the heart?







I'm sorry This is just really funny.

message the guy pip if you like him. If you got a crush better to put your toe in the water to test it out rather than waiting for something to happen when it might not.

I want nick to come take care of me, but he can't. ms. thang is having problems. So it's kinda like being single

You don't have to apologize, as it's so true & frigging hilarious. He's atrocious when it comes to written English. He always manages to leave out letters or words which confuses the heck outta me. It literally felt like I was deciphering ancient Greek because what he wrote barely made an ounce of sense to me. I'd have to reread every sentence a few times to get the gist of it & even then I'd sometimes be like wtf. The only audience his "book" would appeal to is those who only use net speak because for those who speak & write almost perfect English would lose brain cells & also, their heads would hurt as their IQ drops. It makes me wonder about the effort he put in during English classes during the course of his school years. I mean, when he speaks it's easy to understand him but when it comes to writing, yikes.

No, of course not! I have gotten messages from people I went to high school with (men and women both), and I haven't heard from these people since before you were born. Most of them are happily married, and it's been nice to catch up. Friend him!

You girls are right. I should message him & I have no excuse not to. If I don't say anything, I'll lose more than I'll gain. Holding back & being chicken will get me nowhere in life so I gotta give it a try. The moral support is definitely encouraging as it helps so thanks & thanks rocker. Here's hoping this turns out better than the whole Mikey thing & speaking of which, I finally deleted him off my friend's list off fb & I also blocked him too so he cannot see me & I cannot see him. He's off my msn list so the only temptation is my mobile but I'm strong enough not to resort to that method. Plus, I keep getting calls from all these random numbers from all over the world so I'll probably change my number & I definitely won't give him my new number either. Plus, I'll see if I can block his number so he cannot call or text me. Yay me

I wouldn't mind not being single. I have been single my whole life and I'm tired of it.

^^^How old are you?

Being single has its ups and downs, but the more I mature, the pickier get. I'm content waiting for someone worthy of me, rather than settling with someone who isn't. Well, waiting is kind of a misnomer; I have interest and hobbies I can pursue, so if I never meet Mr. Right, at least I enjoyed my life.

Sometimes finding Mr. Right also is letting go of yourself some and all the hang ups you have about yourself. Mr. Right see's past those and see's what you don't see in yourself.

Nick also warned me today I can't love him more than he loves me cause it would illegal and would I like I ticket? then he promptly asked, Can I give you a ticket anyways?
it's only taken 5 yrs, and about 3-4 breakups for each of us to feel at home together.

That's a great way to look at it VB.



You guys do seem to be getting along great. When's the wedding?

^^ who knows. I'd like to soon but I won't push him on it. I want a new ring though. Is that wrong

There's more...

RG: Knowing you, your book will def be on the bestseller list! Dont forget to sign me a copy when u become famous I can't wait for it to get warmer....I love going to the beach! hehe what are ur plans for this summer?

Mikey: aww thanks Zlatina:)I will sign you a copy now and let you be the first to read my book:)Ill even dedicate a chapter to you:) Yea this summer I can't wait to relax on the beach:)goodtimes

Proper English ftw!

No, that isn't wrong - you need a bigass ring, huge diamond with baguettes. oh wait, that's my dream ring - you can get whatever you want.


Fallsemester, I didn't mean for this to sound condescending, I just wondered how long your whole life was, and if your whole life was longer than mine. Not that it's a contest of who has waited the longest or anything.

Interesting:

8 Signs He's Only Interested in Sex

'Not introducing her to his friends' is the main one of that list. So is 'last minute plans'.

last min plans is terrible if anyone doesn't pick up on she's only a booty call that's pretty sad and dumb of her

Sometimes it's hard to pick up on things like that.

I was once used for just a booty call and it took me months to figure it out.

^^^Yeah, but I bet you learned faster the seond time.

To me, those seem pretty obvious. However, some women want to be in a relationship so badly, they have this, "I can change him," mentality. It is pretty sad.

For instance, you should never have to ask, When am I going to meet your friends/family?" Someone who is really interested in you is dying to introduce you around.

I really hate it when girls dump all their friends once they start dating a guy. I want a man I can add to my circle of friends, I don't have friends that I'm using to pass the time until I meet The One.

The only one I'm not sure of would be the 'same restaurant more than once in a month'. Maybe it's just because I never really was in the dating scene completely, but I think some guys are just bad at that. I can totally see Ed taking me to the same place quite a few times if he knows it works, but that's not because I was just booty call, but because he is/was romantically-challenged (or not very creative with his dates).

^^^Yeah, I agree. That one was a little iffy.

what if you live in a small town? The same resturant thing isn't a big deal. Now if it was out of the way and always and only that place then well you'd have to think twice.

What if you've met some of his friends and you just don't like them so you don't want to meet any more of his friends.

Nick took off for the weekend. it's okay...couldn't go if I wanted...still feeling sick.

And it was next door to a motel, where you stopped at for 'dessert'.

I can't laugh out loud because it's 5:30 in the morning, but this was really funny.
