ImNotYourBabe Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 So I have been communicating with this guy over email for a few days..He emailed me yesterday (on link removed) That he might be in my area this weekend if I'm not busy he would love to take catch a bite to eat so that we can get to know each other and meet. I told him that sounded like fun and gave him my phone number. He emailed me this morning and he said this: I thought I was going to be in your area but I feel like crap, Let's just say my stomach isn't happy and I've been making multiple trips to the bathroom since late yesterday. I won't go into further detail. However I will give you a call as soon as my stomach ailment is over. I look forward to seeing how things get done in your area! lol Okay am I being childish? Was that a little TMI and weird for him to mention that? Further in the email he goes on to chat about other things we have discussed. Should he have just called me or texted me instead of emailing me? Is it weird? Sometimes I feel like I'm being too paranoid or picky but I'm not sure.

ImNotYourBabe Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 Oh and he didn't reciprocate with his phone number...is that a bad sign as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niinjaa Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Meh. I wouldn't think too much of it--guys tend to not be ashamed of their bodily functions, xD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImNotYourBabe Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 lol but what about how he didn't give me his phone number in return..I mean whenever he does contact me I guess I will have his phone number but still...isn't that weird?

HouseKitten Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 If you haven't spoken by phone yet then no I don't think it's weird of him to keep using email for the moment. All you can do now is wait till he gets in touch about meeting up. This may be completely true. People get stomach bugs all the time. Or it might be rubbish. Only way to tell - wait and see what he does next. Plus, what he said sounded like average sharing rather than over sharing to me. He didn't just say 'I'm sick' and he didn't say 'I've got a literal ring of fire situation here'. He probably thinks he was being tactful whilst also explaining himself.

I think you're right, I was thinking the same thing. Yeah well he is still engaging me to email him so I guess I will just email him back and see what happens. thanks for your advice..maybe I need to relax a bit. The online dating is fun so far but I have been seeing a lot of posts where people say its horrible. I guess I'm starting to become too paranoid.

CaptainNapalm Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I think you're reading a bit much into it. There is nothing questionable about him getting sick and him just being blunt about the details is probably because he's just a forward type of guy. Wait it out and see if he initiates to meet up with you once he gets better. Wait for him to make the next contact and to initiate plans. If he doesn't in the next week or so then you can call him a write off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newwave Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I wouldn't worry about this. More than likely he really is sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have to email him back because he asked me questions about myself in his last email. lol I will forget about judging him based off of this though..thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cognitive_Canine Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Well I have to email him back because he asked me questions about myself in his last email. lol I will forget about judging him based off of this though..thanks Just say "Hope you get better soon. Just contact me whenever you feel up to it." And then go about your email. You're placing the contact job in his court. And, no, I don't think it's oversharing. At least...not for men. Meanwhile I think "diarrhea" is the worst word in the English language, my boyfriend freely says it and enjoys irking me with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember people used to sing about it like some type of rhyme in middle school. I hated it! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, the two of you just started communicating relatively speaking so don't jump the gun all too soon. I'd continue communicating with him through email for the next week or so and see if he makes plans to meet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone told me that part was sorta weird and now I'm questioning it again. hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jd1983 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Stop worrying so much about it. If he wasn't interested at all, he would not be emailing you. Maybe he just wants to be on the safe side and get to know you better first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
