Alone again

Well, the guy I was seeing told me today that he didn't think he was ready for a relationship..... :frown:

I know we'd only been together for a week but I really liked him and thought he really liked me too :frown:

He said he was worried to tell me as he thought I'd be really cross, which I'm not, well I'm annoyed because I had such good expectations, and because I really liked him, and I hope that I didn't do anything to cause him to feel like that.

I'm actually feeling really upset right now, which is odd as we hadn't been together long, but I just liked him so much..

Also there were a few things that I now wish I'd asked and said to him when he told me, so am thinking of just sending him a quick email....nothing heavy or anything, just saying that i hope i didn't do anything to upset him, that i don't want him to feel bad, that he's a lovely guy and maybe if he changes his mind he knows where to find me....I just tried to brush over it when he told me and we didn't really talk about it, and I don't want him to think I'm happy about it or anything :frown:

DONT DO IT! For Heavens sake, don't email him, leave it a few days, then when you next see him, act as if nothing happened between you.

Why do you say that?

Surely ignoring something itsn't going to make it better....

It's unlikely I'll see him for a while anyway, we don't really move in the same circles....

EDIT- i was just going to make the email a friendly one, nothing over the top or pressurising or desparate or anything....

I say it from experience. When I split up with my girlfriend, we stayed out of contact for a few days, just until the dust settled, and then, after those cooling off days, we saw each other again and we could talk normally, and we are just as close now as we were before we started going out.

Hmmm.....

Well I sent the email, didn't make it too over the top or anything, and at least this way it's easier for him than if i phoned him or something....

Hopefully he'll reply, but I just wanted to tell him a couple of things and didn't want to regret not telling him...if it was the other way round and got the email, i'd be pleased that i wasn't being ignored and that there were no hard feelings etc.

ure gonna be agonising over his reply 4 ages

hes probably showing it to his mates and saying 'haha look how desperate she is.' That is, if he's evil. Which it sounds like he must be if hes rejecting you :wink:

Try not to get TOO cut up.

Remember it was only seven days...you're probably so upset because he hadn't demonstrated any imperfections within such a short space of time.

Go out and enjoy...there'll be another one round the corner :wink:
