Question - (19 March 2013) 7 Answers - (Newest, 20 March 2013)
A female United States age 51-59, *itcat1008 writes:

I met a guy at a friends holiday party. We had a great time. We end up kissing at the end of the night. We shared a cab ride home, and he asked me to go to his place to continue making out. I declined and he asked for my number. I gave him my number and he text me two days later.

We went on our first date a couple days later. We both had a great time, we kissed, he did not want the date to end. I flagged him a cab and he went home and so did I. He did make plans to go to karaoke for the following tuesday. I let him know that I was going out with a friend for her bday but he was more than welcome to join us. In which he did. We all met, we let the bday girl sit in between us. We ate a little , drank a little,I picked up the tab since it was my friend. Then off to karaoke we went.

We got a little drunk, my friend and I. at some point, he had his back towards us, cuz he was talking to some woman. I didn't care, after all we just met and were in a social atmosphere. but my friend start saying all this stuff like, I don't think this your man, why is he talking to that girl, I don't think he says who he says he is, hes such a geek. But I just thought he was a really nice person why is she seeing him in such a bad way.

So she decides she wants to go, flags a cab. I say wait I gotta get my purse. So i go inside grab my purse, he stops me and says "you weren't even gonna say bye, your jealous aren't you" I replied "no" and in that moment I knew I had messed things up. So we all jump in the cab , drop him off first. I wasn't sure what to say at that point. so he just said why don't you just go the meter is running and the cab is waiting. Without saying anything I got in the cab and went home.

The next day my friend writes him a sweet card along with some cash in it. I have done no apologizing at this point yet. So basically I look like the bitch. but I did not want to apologize so soon, cuz I didn't want it to seem so drama.

So about one week later I text him an apology about him, and sorry how I probably made him feel that nite and sorry I disrespected him, and he did not deserve that treatment at all. I also send him a paper wallet that said thank you and some money. He never responded.

Well he did to the text saying thank you and he appreciated it. But he never let me know he recieved the wallet and money. It has been a week since I have heard from him, and have been obsessing over it. I did send a text on saturday just to see if he got the mail, and no response. He told me he loved kissing me as well. Not sure what to do?

like I said, he worked with her, so we just wanted to keep the peace I guess. And there was a possibility at one point of me working there. he did say keep the money, but for my own reasons I just felt I needed to give it back to him. Bad manners on my part!

If you picked up a tab, why you sent him money. for what? It's is strange behavior, agree with others. How long did he talk to that other woman? For hours? Or ony fr a few minutes. If he was with you that night he shouldn't be talking to any other woman for more than a few minutes, but if he talked to her longer than that then you have a right to be mad at him.

An don't blame yourself too much. You didn't do anything super unusual. You waned to go home, may be you should be more clearer about it, but s what, he shouldn't be so touchy about it, you don't really know each other.

And again, what's the deal with money?

Why did both you and your friend send him a card with money in it? Maybe he thought that was strange?
