You did nothing wrong! More than likely, this guy is already spoken for. You haven’t heard from him because he either got caught by his significant other, or your suggestion of an alternate time ruined his plan and snapped him back into reality. Either way, it was for the best. Now go find a single guy that would change his schedule for you any time.
Here is our take on the situation...
Often guys will speak before thinking. If this is news to you... we would like to be invited to the alternate universe you have been living in. Take the above situation for example: Guy wants suggestion of good place to eat and asks a cute girl for her opinion. To thank girl for her opinion he suggested they both get some good sushi, since she is obviously partial to that particular establishment. Girl thinks he's asking her on a date, but she needs to reschedule. Guy realizes that it looks like he was asking for more than friendly company. Not knowing how to fix the situation, it seems easier not to respond to the alternate time than to explain he just was looking for sushi and a friend.
So guys, take a hint from Mr. Wrong and be sure your intentions are upfront and honest from the get go. There are plenty of girls who are up for just having fun if that's what you are looking for. We understand that miscommunication happens. Make use of that backbone and let us know if you are not interested in more than just good company.
Guys can be such cowards at times, especially in situations like this. I agree with the above poster, if he seems shady, he most likely has strings attached.
ReplyDeleteAnd that ain't right!
I'm not sure which advice was given by whom, but I'll comment on it, from a guys viewpoint. The first response -- that the guy was likely already spoken for -- is actually
ReplyDeleteunlikely, in my opinion. And maybe people won't agree with my opinion, but at least the fact remains that there is absolutely no evidence of it in the original question. Mars-Venus relations are tough enough without inventing extra problems out of thin air. :)
The second section was on the money. I'd simplify it this way: For one reason or another, the guy was more interested in sushi at that particular time than with that particular person. So, yeah, he was being self-serving, plus sending mixed signals. (If not, and he was really interested, then he totally dropped the ball.)
