Feeling foolish

[oldfool1]

Name changed but v regular. Will be seeing someone tomorrow eve at a work function. There has been flirting and I'm ashamed to say a bit of sexting however it has all died a death and I think I was def keener than him. I think he was def leading me on to some extent and to be honest just keeping me on the hook - wanting to know if he could if you see what I mean. My plan is to look fabulous and be a breezy ice queen but any other tips for nonchalance?

Smile, be polite, keep chat to the necessary minimum and most importantly, don't drink too much

Yep and lock my phone away from myself - I think that will be key 🔑

Staying at same hotel...

Is this speaking volumes? Do you secretly think/hope something is going to happen?

I think you need to make a deal with yourself that if he comes on to you, you will walk away, otherwise the sexting will be the least of the things to be ashamed about.

Possibly I do still like him but whereas he was keen before he isn't now. That's why I need a plan - I will be disappointed because I already am by how things have turned out but I just need to not stroke his ego any further than I have and keep some self worth.

Why didn't it lead to anything do you think? Any chance he misjudged your level of interest i.e. he thought you were less keen than you actually were?

Nope I drunkenly made that very obvious over texts one evening old adage they like to chase and think put him off!

Aaah right. In that case, be polite and friendly when you are obliged to talk, but keep your distance. Avoid alcohol. Don't make eye contact unless you're talking to each other directly.

I wouldn’t even show I don’t think . Say an emergency came up , if he likes you still he’ll be scanning for you to see if you’ve arrived . Nothing says idgaf like a complete no show.

Not going not an option unfortunately
