I can kick myself in the butt for this one. I’ll try to keep this one short and sweet.
Okay, I met a hottie a couple of weeks ago at a restaurant while hanging out with my buddies. She is a surgery resident who had just moved to town a couple of weeks ago to start her career. I am a medical student. We went out last weekend and had a nice time even though I played things at a distance. During this time I made it a point to not be too forward and keep things in the friend zone because I am tired of going through the dating circus and since I am still fairly new to this town, I decided to just make her a friend so I can build up my friends in town. Also, on the night we met, she gave me a “guy” handshake when we departed.
But by the end of the night we had hung out (I won’t call it a date), I was really into her but decided to stick with the friend thing anyway. She was giving some clues of interest but not too strong. By clues I mean:
1)Telling me I should let her cut my hair since she said she used to cut her ex’s hair. 2) telling me she had a great time and that she would like to do it again. 3). Offering to invite me over to her place for dinner 4). And hugging me good-bye even though I stuck out my hand for a handshake while we were saying good-bye.
So again, by the end of the night I was really into her. I decided to wait until she called me before I called her again. Five days had passed by and she had not called. My brother and cousin encouraged me to call her just to see what was up with her. They convinced me that she would probably be glad to hear from me and that she probably is really interested in me but I probably played it too cool when we went out. So I called her yesterday, we had a casual conversation, and we talked for about 20 minutes before I told her that I had to go. She thanked me for calling and said that she was doing well and adjusting to the new city.
Now since she is a nice looking woman with a nice career and all, I wanted to play it laid back and not be the guy jumping all over her but I was worried that she might not think I was interested in her. I was also concerned that start to forget about me. So I decided to call her today just to ask her out to this outdoor event in town on Sunday. She said she would get back with me on Saturday to let me know or I could call her but she expressed that she was not sure because she had planned to study on Sunday but it may be okay if we went early. She then told me that she was on the other line with her mother and had to go. ***I know***
So I was thinking that things wasn’t looking good and that I maybe lost her interest. I decided that I wouldn’t call her anymore unless she called me. If I didn’t hear from her Saturday, I told myself that I would just be okay with it but I was really hoping to get a chance to spend more time with her but I didn’t want to seem pushy. Now here comes the part I could kick myself about.
I called her about 8pm this evening on my cell phone when I asked her out for Sunday. My brother then called me at 11:30pm. I missed his call before I could get to my phone. I pressed the button to see who call, and saw that it was my brother. I tried to call him back with one push of a button but somehow I pressed the wrong button and called her number instead! Something told me to look at my display screen on my phone and I looked at it to find out that I was actually calling her instead of my brother at 11:30pm at night and she has to be in hospital very early in the morning each day! I hurried up and hung up the phone. Now I think she is going to think I am some crazy psycho dude who can’t get enough of her. She is going to look at her phone and see that I called her late at night and think I am pursuing her too hard. How do I recover? Can I recover from this?
