Question - (3 May 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 4 May 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Recently I've been talking to a friend of mine on the internet. We live in different cities but have hung out a few times. We're the same age and I've known him since 7th grade and I am now a freshman in college. We were never really "friends" exactly but recently we've been talking more and I want to know more about him. He's said stuff like "I can't wait to hang out with you. It's all I've been able to think about all week", he tells me I'm gorgeous, and that we need to hang out a lot more. I went over to his house and he held my hand for hours.

This past week, he invited me to a party with him on Saturday night. He said he would call me when we were supposed to leave but I never heard from him. I didn't try to call him because I was embarrassed. What if the reason he didn't call was about me? What if he really doesn't like me at all and wanted to ditch me? Those are the kind of questions I make up in my mind. I'm so shy and it's kind of crippling. However, when I looked on his facebook account the next day, it showed that he had said something like "The signal I'm getting here is fuck off.. " at 8:00. Could that be about me? What if he had tried to call and I didn't get it? It wouldn't be the first time my phone's done that... I'm just confused and don't want to let him get away just because of my overactive imagination.

So my question is.. what should I do?

Please help :(

Stop panicking, get on the phone and say "Hello, how was your evening the other night?". What if he did try to contact you? What of he's not interested? What happened? You won't know unless you quit sitting their panicking and ask him how he is and what happened. I'm sure you are confused, and I know that being shy is crippling, but you need to talk to him to find out what's happened.

When you go into a relationship you want everything to be perfect, suddenly when something happens that's not ment to you wonder whether the other person still feels the same way. Look he obviously likes you he invited you to his house and then invited you to a party if he didn't like you he wouldn't have. You've known him ages guys don't tend to do stuff like that to girls they've known for a long time. He must have an honest reason for not calling you maybe his battery died and never had your number to call whatever it was if its getting to you so much you should ask him what's the worse he can say . You constantly thinking about what he thinks about yopu is goin to drive you insane once you ask him its all out in the open.
