thick Posted January 18, 2001 Share Posted January 18, 2001 When you send a love letter, and the guy replies that he shall take you out on a date when you meet again, does it mean he doesn't give a ##### and is just trying to be polite? Link to post Share on other sites
Laurynn Posted January 18, 2001 Share Posted January 18, 2001 Can you give a little more information please? Are you speaking in general terms or are you asking a question based on a recent personal experience here? If it's the latter, are you saying you sent a guy you liked, a love letter...and he wrote back saying he'd like to take you out next time you see each other? What would make you think he's not being honest when he says that? I guess the only way to find out is to see if he follows through with his stated intentions.

Tony T Posted January 18, 2001 Share Posted January 18, 2001 Your post implies you do not see him often, since he promises to take you on a date when you "meet again." He almost sounds like some macho cowboy on the western trail. If his response were a bit more romantic, you wouldn't be posting here. Obviously, either he chooses not to be as demonstrative verbally as you do right now or he is not as much into whatever the two of you have going on as you are. I am assuming you would not write a love letter to someone unless you were in a love relationship with them...or is that a fair assumption? If he is younger than you, it could be that he was overwhelmed by your letter and not sure of exactly how to respond. If I were you, I would just be very delighted at getting any response at all. However, I would cease writing love...or any other kind...of letter to him until he takes some initiative. That's really the way you will find out where his head is at and just how he feels about you. If he takes no action to ensure the two of you "meet again" very soon, forget him.

thick Posted January 19, 2001 Share Posted January 19, 2001 It was a personal experience. It's just that when I got the answer, I was happy enough at first. I thought he meant to go out for a drink someday. But he never replied, and told my brother about the fact I was sending him weird letters. He explained my brother he was not interested, and cracked jokes with him. The brother's been expaining me that the date thing was the kind of answer you give to someone you don't know, just to be nice to them. I just ask your advice to check if I was wrong to have slight hopes when I got the answer, and would everyone understand it was a lost cause at once? Can you give a little more information please?

Deejette Posted January 19, 2001 Share Posted January 19, 2001 In this case, now that you have explained more, I wouldn't expect much from him in the way of a date. It just sounds too one-sided, with you showing the emotion and him thinking you are sending "weird letters." If he really wanted to take you out on a date, he would ask you for one on a specific day, not just "sometime" in the future. But this is the risk of a girl sending a love letter to a guy. You are expressing your feelings, but that does not guarantee that the reader feels the same way. Obviously, he doesn't, or he would not call them weird and talk to your brother about them. If he felt the same, he would call you up and tell you how happy your letters made him. It was a personal experience. It's just that when I got the answer, I was happy enough at first.
