Darby answered Thursday May 28 2009, 10:45 pm: Forget about both of these guys. Brandon knows you like him and still doesn't want to date, so you're going to have to settle with being just friends for now. Josh is clearly not a good option unless you want to be sloppy seconds. He sounds like he's just dependent on having someone to call his girlfriend at all times. He's not looking for anything serious if he jumps to a new girl the second he gets dumped. If I were you, I would just try to ignore him. Don't tell him that you were going to say yes. Just let it go at what it is. You've already hung up on him, don't answer if he calls back. And if you do end up having to tell him what's wrong, just tell him you don't like being played with like that.
coconutcatastrophe answered Thursday May 28 2009, 9:20 pm: forget josh. he was just using you as a re-bound, or a second choice, you shouldn't have to deal with being second. and you shouldn't go out with anyone just not to hurt their feelings. if you don't like them, don't go out with them because its not fair to lead them on like that. just play things cool for awhile and be friends and only friends with this brandon kid and don't push him into anything or scare him off or you'll ruin the friendship too. if he starts to fall for you, you'll know. don't be pushy.
