So i told him i was going to get it and i actually got it friday rather than this week. He called last night to wish me luck not knowing i already took it. I did joke about him teaching me and how he should be doing it and he said my father would probably want to do all that stuff; he would probably be insulted if he didnt. I felt a little sad with him not even saying we'll see as kind of the possibility of one day soon he could teach me b.c i basically won't be allowed to drive my father's car anyway so its not about him teaching me. The next time we spoke, i texted him about a price for a driving lesson..he called an hour later or so and said i saw your text (it was $37 for 45 min) and he joked saying i will give a whole hour for $35. And i kinda joked back like what? it should be nothing, what happened to generosity. I'm nice to you etc and i said i would give him $10. It went back and forth for a minute or two and we started talking about something else.. He did ask after how come my good friend so and so can't teach me and i said she is really busy with her schedule and he mentioned my friend's b/f and i said its ok i'm gonna take the lessons and maybe ask someone from softball to help..hopefully he doesnt think i was tryng to make him jealous b/c its a coed team. He said ok. I think he sort of slipped as well with his words. He used to call me honey and i joked do you think i will be a good driver? and he jokingly said(it was a joke so no offense to anyone reading) no, women aren't good drivers honey. I kept talking as if i didn't hear b/c i didn't want to make him pull back after that but i'm pretty sure he said honey by accident which hasn't happened at all since we were together.Should i have pushed the subject with him teaching me to drive? Or left it alone because he was probably just joking and trying to make a light conversation?
