so that guy i went out with spontaneously on sunday (see previous blog) - i'm done with him. right after the date i was ok with giving him another chance and going out with him if he called cause we got along well. but after analyzing the date like all girls do, i wasn't sure if i'd want to go out with him again because i didn't think he was as cute as i thought he'd be and i felt like he would not have too much to..no, it was really because he just wasn't cute enough, i'll admit that. i don't think i'm that superficial, but it is important to be attracted to the person. and sometimes a good personality makes the person more attractive and i just didn't think he had an interesting enough personality to make him more attractive.
well, most of that analysis of the first date was done on monday while i was walking home from work. by the time i got to my street, i decided i'd let him contact me and then i'd decide what i want to do. well, it's now wednesday night and i've already decided i'm not going out with him again. here's why: he has contacted me every day since i went out with him! that is too much.
on monday, when i got into my apartment after work, i had a text message from him, "did you get to work on time?" we joked about how i have a hard time getting to work in the morning and usually sneak in through a back way. so, fine, that was a cute message, but i just got home from work and had stuff to do. i wasn't ready to sit down for a night of text messaging or chatting on the phone. after a couple hours, when i was relaxing watching tv, i wrote back, "haha, i snuck in at my usual time." then he wrote back, "want to come over and watch 24?" yeah, we live 2 minutes away from each other, but he's a stranger as far as i'm concerned. we had only been on one date for a quick dinner - i'm not going to spend time in his apartment at night. so i didn't respond back to that text. then, tuesday i was out with friends for some drinks outside because it was so nice out and i got a text message from him, "what are u up to?" ugh. i wrote back "i'm out with coworkers." he didn't respond. then today, i was walking home from work and i got a text message. oh my god, not again! i looked at my phone - phew, just a text from my mom. so i got home, called my mom, and then worked out. after i worked out, i had a voicemail. guess who it was? yup, he called to see what i was up to.
i'm sorry, but i didn't feel like the chemistry was that great on our date to be in contact every day after it. just because he lives in my neighhborhood and it's easy to meet up doesn't mean i'm going to be more willing to go out with him and bypass the usual dinner and drinks that marks a first, real date. i've completely lost interest. i barely know him and he's checking on me every day. it makes me feel like he doesn't have a life. so i'm not calling him back and hoping i don't randomly run into him again.

I vote for no texting (at least requests to get together) until you've been on several dates--and surely not every day. Good call on not going out with him again.
Oh well. :(
Easy come, easy go.
you don't need to apologize for not being interested. i would have been turned off by all of that too. and for the love of GOD with the texting! what the eff.
but i do think it's really cute that your mom texts you:)
Ha! My mom has no clue how to send a text. She does good to answer and dail out with her cell phone. I agree with you on the whole attraction thing though. If the attraction is not there, then nothing really is. Except maybe a nice friendship. And frankly, I'm not looking for a nice friendship, I'm looking for a man to satisfy my needs.
