ST Advice: So I rarely share about this stuff, but here is a relationship question I'd love some ST input on if you don't mind. (It's a little long) - MDH Jan 13, 07:45 24 1
- It depends on what you want out of it. Serious relationships can grow from casual beginnings. Friendship is good too. - ceregon Jan 13, 08:33
- "I would love to see you again one of the next few times" Translation; you'll do for one weekend, but on the other weekends I'm up there I'll be doing - Loyola Jan 13, 08:19
- [deleted] 6
  - True, he did send a message which was better than most guys would do. Btw I love how you spell "Absolute" like the vodka. -- nm - MDH Jan 13, 07:57 5
    - I read that as the "drunk dial-text-fb" standard. Like the dude got the guilts while drunk and messaged you. -- nm - Amy Jan 13, 08:05 2
      - That's exactly how I see it. -- nm - MDH Jan 13, 08:14 1
        
        "I lurk shats" is the absolut standard for "I like shots" -- nm - Amy Jan 13, 08:18

  - "P.S. Rob or Russell?" nm - Dignan Jan 13, 07:56

  - We never actually dated. And we were still getting to know each other as friends. - MDH Jan 13, 07:55
- I would go with politely thank him for his explanation, then drop the whole thing. -- nm - loosilu on her netbook Jan 13, 07:52
- I'd be tempted to go into super-needy relationship mode in a response just to freak him out. - Inigo Jan 13, 07:51 2
  - word to the im -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 07:55
  - I love this. ST can be cyrano! -- nm - amanda jones Jan 13, 07:55
- don't respond. He's not worthy of your time or friendship - Epiphany Jan 13, 07:51
- I'm torn between a) Fuck him, don't respond. and b) It took a while, but at least it's an explanation and an honest one. - Jim Jan 13, 07:50 1
  - Haha this is why I brought this up with ST! :-p -- nm - MDH Jan 13, 08:00
- Honestly, unless I thought I'd be running into him here and there, I probably wouldn't respond. - Dignan Jan 13, 07:50 2

    - oh yes. -- nm - loosilu on her netbook Jan 13, 08:09
    - Look, just because I apparently spent a weekend with a gay dude doesn't mean you get to banter with me about super sexy English actors. nm - Dignan Jan 13, 08:08 12
      - *wink* -- nm - Diva Jan 13, 08:19

  - This -- nm - amoxy Jan 13, 08:18
- also, you should call the embassy, if they have not emailed you back. -- nm - loosilu on her netbook Jan 13, 07:34 2
  - yeah, I would have phoned yesterday. some places just don't do email very well. -- nm - amanda jones Jan 13, 07:55 1
