you're just... the worst
So here is the thing. I have been since late January been chatting with this guy. He would text me via instant message. This is fine, except that the only way I could text back was if he was signed in. If he signed out then I would get a bounce back saying it hadn't been delivered.
Anyway the thing is, when we first started texting he asked me a question and I answered, as truthfully as I could, he didn't like my answer so I didn't hear from him a while. Then he started again, fine, he's cute and I doubt there will be anything sexually between us, but I will take a friend, lord knows I could use a friend here and there.
But the confusing thing is, after we started texting again, he finally gave me his number to text him proper. Now I've been under the weather the past week or so, and my days are running together, so it was three days before I sent him a text. He was all happy go lucky, but not long into the conversation I got a vibe that he didn't know we have been texting for over a month now. I even gave a huge hint... that I was sorry for taking 3 days to get back to him. I thought that did it, because he gave a lol that's okay kind of response. But then he asked me what I was looking for, and I knew right away he didn't know who I was. Well I couldn't answer him right them because I was at work and my boss just got in and I had to get back to work.
Then the part that made it very clear to me that he didn't know who he was talking to happened. He sent me a text via his instant messenger. I stared at his message knowing I couldn't respond because I was standing right in front of my bosses desk. I just told him I was busy and couldn't talk, so him hitting me up via IM wasn't him trying to hit me up again, he was hitting someone else up, and that someone just happened to be me again.
I'm not mad, because that would be stupid. This guy doesn't know me from Adam, we've never met let alone talked, but I would have hoped that he would remember giving me his number. I mean how many Andy's does he have texting him, and sending him pictures of me? Not nude, just head shots. I'm probably not going to be sending him any of those. (I never send full body shots anyways, want to see the full me, then we gotta meet and greet)
So, I'm wondering how I should tell/ask him what's up. I would love to be friends with him, he lives close by and all. But I don't want to word it wrong. I have a tendency to do that, so I need a little time to put myself together to let him know we can't have two separate conversations, either we text/text or we text/IM.
I guess I could try and keep up both, but I can't do that for several reasons.
