Barnaby,
I can’t stop thinking about this boy. We kissed once and I wouldn’t sleep with him because if I did I thought he wouldn’t be interested. But it’s been a week since that and he hasn’t called. I really like him, but he won’t reply to my texts. What should I do? Call him? Turn up at his house? Is he just playing it cool?
Help.
Hey Help,
He’s playing it dead cool. He doesn’t fancy you. Why have you forgotten what it’s like when you’ve kissed someone in the past and then not been into him so haven’t replied to his attempts at communication? It’s the same rule for everyone. You’re just going to have to put this one down to experience and delete his number. If you’re friends on facebook, delete that too as checking his profile everyday will just end in tears. Your tears.
If you delete him and forget about him then maybe (and only maybe) he’ll wonder why you’re not after him anymore. That might be the challenge he’s up for at which point you can decide whether you want to mistakenly let him back in.
Or of course his fingers could have been amputated in an agonising fork-lift truck accident sometime in the last week. In which case he’s probably desperate to reply to your texts but literally can’t. What to do? What to do?
Cheers,
barnaby
