G’day Carrie,
During out time together, he kept professing how he thought I was cute and fun to be around
Did you end up giving him a call?
Otherwise, from my perspective maybe he is quite shy and in that time and space he felt comfortable enough to say ‘something’ rather than ‘nothing’. I ended up in an uncomfortable position with a woman whom kept putting herself down, ‘i’m stupid’ ‘i’m not as pretty as her’ stuff like this, and i just supported her for that time saying you not stupid and quite pretty. These weren’t hollow words, every woman has the right to feel beautiful, and she was pretty. But i didn’t have the ‘romantic’ attachment that she thought i had. Words are powerful beyond measure, not because they ‘mean’ things, but because they mean things to different people at different times, places with their own perceptions.
Although you feel a connection, it could be that he literally thinks your cute and fun to be around. Maybe he feels that your comfortable to be around as a friend or just an acquaintance. Also you agreed to ‘hang-out’…..if you want to hang-out (IMO) it’s like as friends or just two people hanging out keeping each other company. Whereas a ‘date’ sends the message that your into each other. You want to know more about each other, to see if you could be good company for each other. If you call/ text and he declines or postpones he is non-committal and if you ever wanted a relationship this ‘trait’ would exist. Don’t say ‘give-up’, just move on. Chock it down to experience and keep chugging along.
Keep us updated (if you want) 😉
Sincerely,
Matty
