Is it "wrong" of him or am I being overly sensitive?


Question Posted Friday September 19 2008, 10:18 pm

There is Bob and Joe and me.

Bob is naturally curious about other people's business and he's been on Joe and my case since last year. Since last year, Joe and I have been close friends and he really liked me. I thought I liked him in that way, too, and went to a dance with him and gave him mixed signals. But now I really like him as a friend and nothing more. He asked me to homecoming and I declined saying that I didn't want to go to homecoming because it was crappy (which is completely true) but also because (this part I didn't say to him) I don't want to go to homecoming with him even as friends because he'll still get the wrong idea (even if I told him we'll go as friends)

Well in class, Bob was asking Joe how it went yesterday about asking me to homecoming. The room was pretty quiet and although they were on the other side of the room, I could hear parts of the conversation--enough to know that they were talking about me. So Joe was telling Bob about yesterday and asking me to go with him.

Now I feel like I don't want ANYTHING to do with JOe because he'll just go around and nonchalantly tell people about everything that goes down between "us"

Am I being overly dramatic or what? What should I do?

Well, as you said, you gave him mixed signals.

A lot of guys, when they're confused, like to ask for answers, or at least fish for opinions.

So, it makes sense that if he really likes you, and you said no to homecoming, he'd at least talk to someone because he probably wants to know if he's coming on too strong or something like that.

However, since I don't know what was said about you, I'm only going on what was said.

Point is, I don't think he did anything wrong by talking about you rejecting him. If he started calling you horrible things just for that, then he's a jerk. But again, I don't know what was said.

Good luck and God bless.
