I had to dig this one out of the moth balls. I never thought I'd see the day it would be applicable to a thread:

It's too early to tell what he wants I think. If he takes the time to pursue you(this isn't a bad thing) he is probably interested in dating you. If it's more or less casual, he might just want you as a friend.

Yup. Let him make the first call. Probably the safest thing to do right now.

I wouldn't, but then again, I've never been approached. I'm the one approaching
Well yeah, not your everyday thing to have a girl approach a guy.

Quote:
She might catch him and bring it up out of nowhere. That screams desperate. She might just bring it up casually in a phone call, he could view that as desperate, or he might take it as he disrespecting her. Could have been a phone call for a friend for all I know
That's right. Or...he might just not try to think to deep about it and simply follow along and have a good time.

Quote:
I'm saying that if she's interested in him, she should get to know him better to see what he's like.
Well said. But I think this applies to both genders.

Maybe a girl after a guy can be seen as "desperate" and a guy after a girl be seen as a "creep" I suppose. Not that I support those views completely unless the interested party breaks some common civil rules of conduct.

So you support my observation of "It's too soon to tell" ?

Actually it's not the first call. He already called me once and we spoke on the phone for a bit the day before this particular class. When we were ending the call, he told me to call him later. I just am not sure if I feel like calling him now after this class. Am I making too much out of this?

No. Sounds to me like the young player deserves it. Two can play those games.

I'd wait for him to call (and if he doesn't... quick end of the story) and be all cheerful on the phone as if nothing's happened. If he asks why you didn't call, tell him you've been busy with something. Don't mention you were upset about anything at all! Then, you may want to flirt with other guys in his vicinity, too!

I'd probably take advice from other women at this point. I'm not the player type so I wouldn't know how to deal with this situation as a whole.

And, if it helps, I'm not a woman either. I know cuz I check every day.

What if I don't want to play games? I'm not good with games. I'm actually a really shy person and it's hard for me to meet and talk to others to begin with.
