some guy i know


Question Posted Thursday February 21 2008, 11:33 am

ok so i am 22 and he is 29. I dont mind the age difference because my parents are 10 years apart and they married when mum was 25 and dad at 35... oh and they are happy! anyway... so we met through mutual friends during our dads' company dinner once. (all kids old and young are forced to go) anyway so i knew everyone was trying to set us up and all and he seemed like he liked that though so he was being very open and talkative and inquisitive. thing is i am not usually like this but i froze like hells gone blue froze!

then he kept trying to call and all after but we were having such a busy month after that with my cousins baby shower and birth (i mean she's like a sister and we were basically part of her immediate family) so i was always canceling and avoiding and stuff so i guess he took it as a hint.

a coupla months after he added me on facebook. so i just added him back as friends nothing more or less... thing is, its like he added me just to view my profile and how i interact with people and see what kind of mentality i have.... i don't know how long after he just limited his profile to me.. i did the same because i mean i gave him the chance to view who i am when on a normal day... thing is i don't feel comfortable with him there... its like a stranger on my list you know? he doesnt talk he doesn't interact in any way (i tried inviting him to causes and sending him some of the funny funwalls once in a while so as not to be one of hose people who flood your wall) but still nothing.........

i am not sure what to do... talking/messaging/posting on his wall/ or anything that involves direct communication is out of the question....
should i just delete him?

Additional info, added Friday February 22 2008, 12:20 am:
just to fill in everyone about something that came up from one of the posts... he is active... when i click on the home page where it tells you whos birthday and so forth i always see X did this or X added this, Xsent this.... then suddenly it just stopped so i figured he'd been idle but that when i realized i was on limited profiles (coz the first time i checked his profile i was able to see the wall and pictures and stuff now i cant)

about the message... i don't really want to send him anything and open that door and loosing control of my position to keep it locked, you know? if i send him something and say he ignores I've lost that upper hand... i know i know i am fulla pride but hey thats me.... i am not sure what to do... and this guy is kind of (unconsciously to some extent) effecting how i carry myself out on face........ urghhh i am so confused...

Theres more to a person than what they do on facebook. Why not try and reconnect with him offline? Get his number and give him a call or text him.

There could be several reasons to why people do what they do online, just because he doesn't respond or whatnot doesn't mean he may not be interested.

Good luck.

Seems kinda stalkerish if you read it over again. I would suggest not doing anything, if not already setting to a limited profile. Some people tend to be idle on facebook for a long time so you should check the updates board and make sure he actually does stuff.

But if it seriously bothers you, send him a message saying so and either wait or delete.
