    at all. i can't believe i told one i liked him more than a friend. i feel like such a moron. he told me "lol i thought so but i thought i was clear that i was seeing someone". the only thing he mentioned about another girl was that he had a date and that he broke up with a girlfriend. he told me that when he was taking me home after the newark show which i invited him to. how does "i had a date" and "i had a girlfriend and i broke it off" = "seeing someone"? and if he DID have a girlfriend, why go with me to the newark show without at least telling me about her? and that "lol".... what the hell is there to "lol" about?! he never says "lol"! GOD what a horrible day! i can't believe i wasted my extra lottery front row seat with him! (he never did pay me back for that ticket and beer by the way...)

    the crappy part is that i still like him. ughhhh........
    whilst reading your short story i became confused, lost, and agitated. i feel as if my uncle's cousin's brother's girl friend's mom's daughter just kicked me square in the balls.

    Actually as you look back on this it will be a good thing you told him how you feel. This is, as a rule, a good way to live your life, honestly. In this case you found out where he's coming from. The biggest thing I see here is you were extremely nice to invite him to an awesome, one of kind, lifetime dream evening of seeing Pearl Jam as we all wish to and he hasn't even paid you yet for the ticket or beer?? He should have been treating you to the beers with the ticket money in your pocket! This a huge clue to the selfishness of the young man. Really not much to like here when there are boys/men out there that will put you first, treat you with love and respect and cherish their time with you. Not much to like at all. Save yourself much heartache in life and find the men with the beautiful hearts, ready to give you what you need.

    but i thought he was nice. he was the nicest guy i've known (what does that say about me? :lol: ) he was polite and said i was important to him and seemed genuinely upset that he didn't have money. my dad was there to see him talk to me way before i thought i liked him and he told me the way he was acting, genuinely excited to see me and calling me over every time i went into his store, he said boys don't normally act that way and that that meant he liked me. i even asked my cousin who's around the same age as him about him and he said the same thing. and everyone said that newark show was a date even though i didn't think so. everyone was saying that it was obvious to them that he liked me. so i went with it and it backfired. sigh. i think i'm more upset that i finally thought i found someone i liked who genuinely liked me back as a person and as more than a friend but i guess not.

    and i'm not going to wait more years to get a boyfriend! i'm freaking going to be 22, i'm supposed* to be engaged in a few years i have to get cracking!

    he's immature...he might grow out of it but you'll suffer waiting for that day which may never come...move on and wait until you find someone that truly wants to be with you

    and don't even think about getting married until at least 30...just my perspective but you should enjoy your 20's without being tied down (unless you're into that ;) :P ) :mrgreen:

    i agree. one of the reasons why i didn't like him was because i thought he was immature, but my mom told me "18, 35, 70, it doesn't matter what their age is all men are immature" and she told me to give him a chance because she thought he liked me and i should give him a chance. ohhhhhhh wellllllll.....

    and i always told myself i wouldn't be those kinds of people who have kids at 35... no offense who those who have kids at 35 :D

    Oh yeah men like that humor, if you want my menfolk to laugh tell a fart joke or better yet just fart!
    This boy seems like a player to me. One who knows what to say and to whom to say it to impress and get what he wants. Sincerity is also a sign of maturity and also having a conscience. You both have a lot to learn but probably not together. Look around. I bet there is a nice young man with his eye on you. He might not be the fella you think you would want, but give it a chance. Love blossoms and people look different once they are in your heart. Respect is the most important thing right now as a young women, always demand respect. The good men will have this for you and all the other women in their life.

    3. This guy is playing you, intentionally or otherwise

    Jaysis I would in my eye give up front row seats to PJ to some fella who didn't buy me beer all night!

    Men are silly. They like to believe they are simple creatures, but in reality they're as complicated as we are. That's what makes life interesting, I guess. You'll have your head wrecked with the "does he like me? does he not like me?" thoughts floating around in your brain. It can be very annoying but also fun at the same time!
