Question - (20 May 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 20 May 2011)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

So I met this guy at a party a couple weeks ago and he was a true gentlemen... he asked for my number... he arranged a coffee date around a week later and it went extremely well. We hit it off and had a lot in common so the date carried on from the coffee. Now hes been busy with finals and this week they're finally over... he invited me to this college event where the whole campus parties in celebration of finals being over... (its called an undie run). He said he wanted to meet me there on campus but I was already bringing my close guy friend...(we'll call him matt). We showed up at the dorm he told me about since there was a before party and when the school event got started me and the guy eventually got separated. What im asking is... did i make a mistake here? I feel like it was bad that i showed up with matt and the fact that i was a bit tipsy.

I made it abundantly clear that i wanted to be affectionate with this guy and i havent exactly heard from him yet. I sent him a message online apologizing for the chaotic night and that he should come to a party my friends are throwing tonight. I'm trying to take into consideration that hes been wrapping up last minute school work and that he can somtimes be a bit slow to reply. What should i do? I reached out and wrote him a nice message so i feel like i should wait for him to pass the ball back.

Honeypie agony auntWell bringing a 3rd wheel to a "date-like" situation is not a good start. If you already had plans to go there iwht your friend "matt" you should have told "the guy" that you had already made pland with male friend.

But overall yes, the ball is in his court, I jsut don't think you can expect him to pick it up and throw it back at you.

mizz.butterflies agony auntyeah u shouldnt have been tipsy or bring matt. i mean this guy was trying to create a romantic situation,and u just brought ur friend like it didnt really matter. Hmmm.

The online message was not a good idea either. You should have consulted dear cupid before taking any course of action.

This one's tricky.

Now dont do anything,u already invited him to a party.

(a party..he might take it as a sign that ur too much of a party girl?)

Now...

dont get tipsy. Dont get drunk. Be polite and classy. No silly jokes with friends. Be a lady. Spend a lot of time with him but do not apologize again.

If he doesnt come to the party, give us an update.

good luck.
