preraph Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 The ball is in his court now. He knows you're interested enough to have made the first move. If he wants to go any further, it's really just up to him now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Dear Lady Disdain Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) Sad, I fear this may have gone pear shaped as predicted, I suggest another date and time I'll be in the area, he replied fast and said " sorry I'm not about on Fridays, still hoping to catch up " So then I am fearful I left an overly stiff and formal email saying " yes it would be good to catch up, let me know when you are free, kind regards DLD " ~ we were work colleagues so would sign my emails kind regards and didn't want to sound pushy but it may have come out a bit stiff because I felt he could be evading me by not suggesting another date I am para about my email now as this is day three and no response! Worried what I wrote sounded bad, guess I'm craving some reassurance here now, not that he will contact me but my email was ok and I did nothing wrong, would appreciate it so, thanks Xxx Edited September 14, 2016 by Dear Lady Disdain Link to post Share on other sites

Author Dear Lady Disdain Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 And another part of me gives up, can't be bloody bothered! It's all too hard, will probably be moving on as advised! It looks like he was " just being nice ", sad but true! Link to post Share on other sites
preraph Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Once he declined, then if he wanted to meet up, it was his place to say "Not free on Friday, but let's shoot for next week." He didn't do that, so I'm afraid he's not very interested. He may simply have someone else at the moment. I'm sorry. But yes, maintain your dignity. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
