When guys ask me out, I am really bad at saying no. I feel like I need to give people a chance, keep my options open. But what ends up happening more often than not is that I am more awkward and uncomfortable then usual (which is pretty incredible considering how awkward and uncomfortable I usually am anyway) and spend most of the date waiting for it to end.
Not to say that all of these dates are bad, or that I shouldn't be giving people a chance, but now that I have decided I am officially "into someone" does that mean that going out with other people is no longer giving them a chance, but rather leading them on?
I've met someone recently who is almost too into me. He writes really long posts on my facebook wall and sends me messages, and has now asked me out twice. He's nice enough but I just can't get into it. I'm holding out for someone else. Granted this whole thing with this certain gentleman is going absolutely nowhere, but at the risk of sounding pathetic, I feel like I should still hold out just a little hope shouldn't I? I suppose the answer is just to wait and see how it all turns out, take all of these things that life throws at you and hope that it works itself out in the long run. That takes patience, and proactivity, and being vocal about what you want. Isn't this time of life about a positive attitude and going after what you want?
So herein lies the problem. Do I continue to pursue this seemingly lost cause, or do I let it go and give some of these other guys a chance? I know that what I really want is the former, but am I happier with an idea of what could be, then to settle for something that is readily available? Rock? Hard place? Is that you?
