Meeting the Friends

On Friday night "F" came over and we went out to my friends' apartment for dinner. It was the first time he was meeting any of my friends, and I just thought it would be nice to have it be a relaxed evening. So off we went...
I think things went well, it was just six of us all together and dinner and a very low key thing. Basically sitting on the couch watching what is probably the worst 80's movie of all time! (In case you're wondering it is called "Satisfaction") I think everyone liked "F" and I know he thought the night went fine. We got home and just watched some TV and went to bed. And then in the morning instead of leaving he spent the day with me! I was so surprised! I had mentioned to him last weekend that I would like it if he stayed one day instead of rushing off to do whatever. And he listened and that really meant so much to me.
I am still just sort of going with the flow. I don't know what happened last week, and I am not bringing it up. But I am also taking a step back and letting him come to me when he wants to. I am trying not to be pushy or anything. So, while things were definitely better, I still feel like it is a 'wait and see' situation.

So exciting that he met your friends! And I think waiting and seeing is a good way to handle the situation right now.

I am pleased to hear that he didn't back out at the last minute and went with you to dinner on Friday. That's a good sign and an even better sign that he didn't "run off" on Saturday morning. Maybe it was just an awkward off week and he didn't want to burden you with his problems at this point and anyway, who ever said that guys aren't moody and PMSy, never spent a lot of time around men! Here's to more good news and moving forward from here.

And, the fact that he wasn't feeling well makes the fact that he went to shabbat dinner even more impressive! I like that he made an effort to stick around on Saturday. Wait and see seems like a good plan right now. Keep him in the loop, but give him some space, and keep doing your thing. Yay!
