He is coming round tomorrow so I'm willing to wait and see what happens then, but don't think I'll wait much longer. I am enjoying the attention though.. he talks to me every day on Facebook and spent more time with me at the Open Mic than anyone else, and he's coming round to cook for me, so this is all good stuff... just be nice if there was more to it!! I'll let you know how I get on!ATO Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283109498023417784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-6339101011300541242012-10-16T22:53:37.337+01:002012-10-16T22:53:37.337+01:00Sorry, meant to comment on this one ages ago as pr...Sorry, meant to comment on this one ages ago as promised. I think they're the actions of the man who can't make his bloody mind up. I am a more decisive sort and a man like this would drive me potty, sorry. You sound like you've done all you can - it's not like you haven't seized the moment and come out with it - you've broached the subject in a not too subtle manner and he's dodged it. It's up to him to be brave now if it's what he wants. Me? I would ignore him and move on. If he really wants to have more than a friendship with you, then he'll have to pull his finger out and sort it out. Failing that, you could just kick him in the balls. ;)Trouble Doubledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994453703905075585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-65920946848871598282012-10-08T20:34:43.336+01:002012-10-08T20:34:43.336+01:00my thoughts exactly!!!my thoughts exactly!!!ATO Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283109498023417784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-80667572406124501422012-10-08T20:04:30.437+01:002012-10-08T20:04:30.437+01:00gaaaaaahhhhh. :-(( gaaaaaahhhhh. :-(( Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838426651793558151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-10810151172772848992012-10-08T18:53:17.318+01:002012-10-08T18:53:17.318+01:00EPILOGUE.. OR THE NEXT CHAPTER????
Ok, I have to g...EPILOGUE.. OR THE NEXT CHAPTER????<br />Ok, I have to give you an update from last night's Open Mic. Crush 2.0 slightly cagey with me all night, and off his game singing-wise (not so as anyone else would notice but I did). I wait til the end to help him clear up, as I always do. Then landlord invites the two of us in for a drink, Crush 2.0 says to me 'I could do with the support' (him and the landlord, its a bit tense), so I go for the drink. When we come out and I can see he's not happy with said landlord and he says 'Want to come and sit in the car with me as I would love to talk to you about that?' So I join him in his car to discuss the discussion and he says 'We'll reverse round into the car park, pretend like we're making out'. Yep, you heard that right. Why, oh why, oh why I didn't say 'why pretend?' I don't know, but I didn't. So he chatted about discussion with landlord and loads of other stuff and kept forgetting what he was saying but I got the sense he would happily have talked to me all night. Thing was, I really had to go, so I did our usual friendly kiss good night and said 'I'll see you soon' and he says 'Yep, really soon'. <br />Thanks Crush 2.0, I really needed something more to add to the general What The Fuck???? of this situation. Seriously, is it me??? Those don't strike me as the actions of a man who's not interested at all, or are they just the actions of a man who's not interested but wants to be really clear with me that he still wants to be friends?<br />Help???!!!!ATO Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283109498023417784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-81935812487430289052012-10-07T22:15:56.392+01:002012-10-07T22:15:56.392+01:00You go!!You go!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838426651793558151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-83179412539633606152012-10-07T18:16:16.441+01:002012-10-07T18:16:16.441+01:00Thanks Lynn and yep, I'm leaning towards the &...Thanks Lynn and yep, I'm leaning towards the 'too much of a head fuck to be worth it' side at the moment!ATO Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283109498023417784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-29092824867990453362012-10-07T17:10:58.717+01:002012-10-07T17:10:58.717+01:00Sounds a bit like he is keeping his options open I...Sounds a bit like he is keeping his options open IME.

Eventually when I had the balls to ask him where I stood he was very evasive and surprised, although I think definitely AS surprised I'd said something as much as what I was saying. After months of glaring at each other in the streets (mature), we are very good friends again. Although this time, just friends. I hope I've learnt my lesson. He spent years being a perfect almost-boyfriend, but if you are looking for more than an "almost" you've got to be true to yourself and speak up or ask for what you want.

Not that I'm letting him see that!! I'll see how he behaves the next couple of weeks, but if he doesn't get his act together I shall be off in search of Crush III !!!ATO Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283109498023417784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-411960124307571142012-10-07T13:54:31.889+01:002012-10-07T13:54:31.889+01:00Thank you love!

Man I was cross with the comment, and went off into a right old rant about how I'd love to have something better to do but with a critically ill child there wasn't much i could do about that etc etc. I should have just given him a call!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11838426651793558151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673402557605809259.post-7391091718894464682012-10-07T12:02:05.360+01:002012-10-07T12:02:05.360+01:00Cracking post m'love.
