To Txt Or Not To Txt?!

FoXXy

Here's one to ponder over.
on a nite out recently i got talking to a friend of a friend andn we hit it off really well, spent all night talkin to each other and then stayed up the whole nite talkin back at his place. we got on so well and we did kiss few times but he never asked for my number.
when i was leavin he sed he'd get my number off my two mates and gimme a shout. he's definitely a guy i'd love to see again and would kick myself for not seeing him again. my friends said theyd give me his number no problem...
but it brings out the age old question... should i take the jump and text him r should i wait and see if he takes the initiative. if he does it means he's interested. if i do is it bein too forward?

Sure go ahead and take the initiative, but please remember that you aren't texting right now so it'd be great if you could post without using text speak. Sorry, but it can be quite distracting to read on PI.

The simple, run of the mill thought processes people post in these forums these days, no one who starts threads in here seems to be able to make decisions...

*sigh* Text him, I don't even have a reason for saying why.

*sigh* this is the way it has always been, that's why people come here - to ask for advice. It's not usually the answer that is needed but the reasoning why.*


*I know I didn't give my reasons either.

not so much that i cant make a decision. i'll probly do my own thing and text him regardless of whether i'm making a fool of myself
i just thought i'd put it out there, see if anyone had anything to say on it.

i was kinda thinking ive read something similar so many times before, and i havent even been around that long!

OP: you might as well just text, wheres the harm? if he likes you he wont stop liking you because you text. if he doesnt reply, then at least you know where you stand and wont spend the next however many days wondering.

Ah but Gordon, it's getting stupid these days. I'd say that 9/10 new threads that start in this forum run along the lines of


I met dis lad out last nite, I rly like him and I tink he likes me, wat shld I do?


Jesus Christ, do people not have any personal reasoning or instinct anymore?

FoXXy

of course people have reasoning and instinct. it just helps to have other opinions on the matter. this is an open forum so people should feel free to post whatever is bugging them without feeling that they're being stupid?

dceire

Text Him! He's probably saying the same thing to himself as you are

Laguna

I never said you were stupid, I don't think you're stupid and I'm not going to start thinking you're stupid. I just think there should be a sticky thread made to answer the run of the mill 'dilemma' that continues to reappear on these boards.

^CwAzY^

Don't txt him.. It will make him want you more :v:

Seriously, you wouldn't believe how many threads are identical to previous threads in PI. I've read 95% of them. And you wouldn't believe how many responses are like yours Laguna. The fact is that everyone is an individual and will presume to have an individual problem. This may be eked out in due course, or not at all.

The fact that you are getting annoyed on this matter is due to the fact that you are getting bored with the same types of threads. I suggest you don't post on those threads or you will feel like you are in a feedback loop. It works for me - I just don't post if others are giving good advice and if I'm going bonkers for having already posted similar advice not so long ago.

Please, respect the apparent individuality of the posters problem and let the mods decide what is to be done with the threads. And if you see a thread that you don't think should be on PI - report it and don't spoil the thread inline.

That doesn't work, we have (kind of) tried that method.

And a coin has three sides. Merc, you must love getting banned from PI, so I'm banning you again.

More like people see PI and boards as a big group of firneds or aquaintces that they can ask for feeback from with having ot have any other meaning full
conversations with.

FoXXy why would you not talk your friends if you should text him ?
Surely they know you and him ?

To be honest i would say dont text...i got a guys number of one
of his mates on friday after a night out....kissed the guy on friday and two fridays previous...text him when i got home on friday and nothing since then...save yourself the embarrassment...i know i wish i had!

mr biazzi

I'm not sure how long its been since ye had that night together, but....
Wait longer, if he wants ya he'll know where to find ya. and you can ask your mates to offer your number. but dont!!
