Hmm...learn from someone who just made a move on a guy, okay? Granted the move was more friendly than romantic, trust me on this. Give yourself until after the holiday, then you can text all you want, how does that sound? You have good excuse then too. It's the New Year!
That's a good way to look at it too. I just don't want to wait too long and let him slip away.

Can I tell you something? 2 weeks are NOT that long to lose a guy. If you are going to lose him in 2 weeks, the chance of him liking you in the first place is not that much anyway. What are you afraid of? Why are you concern about losing him? Why isn't he afraid of losing you?

Look, I went through this. I thought the same thought you are having now. Just play it cool okay?

Okay,

Guy 1 - I asked him to "hang out" - did he ever call me back? Not this week.

Guy 2 - I have been dismissing him, making excuses as to I am not free to have dinner with him. It has been a month, he is still there.

Why don't you let guy #2 that you aren't interested? I'm very blunt when it comes to interest. I let a guy know right away if I'm interested. But to answer your question, it's rare that I like a guy and he reciprocates somewhat of an interest outside of sex. So that's why I'm making a big deal about this.

I told him. I made sure he knows that we are not going on a date, that I see him as friend, blah blah blah. He said he is sure that he can convince me to change my mind. Anyhow, I think so far, he is halfway successful.

I know it's a big deal. The guy I liked, he is a catch too. But the thing is, even I don't like someone putting too much on the table too soon.

Your life, your call

What did people do 20 years ago when they didn't have the opinion of the masses to tell them what an individual is thinking?

If you don't keep in touch with him, he'll probably think you have another bf or are not interested. You have to go after what you want.
