A new start for Iwan

Okay, I just got the boys phone number from his best friend (who I know is calling him right now to tell him that I asked for his phone number because guys are such gossips). And I have butterflies doing wild arial acrobatics in my guts.
 
uhhh. Okay. when it rains it pours....men. No, I havn't called the boy yet, I'm parylized with fear of rejection. But, I've gotton three emails in two days from another interesting hotty. And he just sent me a picture of him on his motor cycle. No, its not a creepy online thing, its a guy I've been friends with since high school. He says he wanted to call me last night but thought 2am was too late. 2am is never to late for him to call me...lol.

what to do,
what to do.
 
Howdy Iwan,
Awwwwww butterflies in the tummy waiting for
emails and calls 1st sighn's of falling inlove! Gettem girl you'll get
the courage you need to call him it will work out.Thanks for stopping by
and saying hi it's always nice to see ya.Keep up the great work and have
a nice day Tammy:)
 
I'm really trying to work up the courage...I really am. but...but...but...I think that kind of courage doesn't come easily to me yet. I still think of myself as the ugliest person on earth so...yeah...if he said no could I blame him?
 
hey now - i thought we settled this long ago you are NOT the ugliest person on earth -not even second ugliest... or 200th ugliest... You have a fantastic personality, and are intelligent - those two things alone set you head and shoulders among the supermodelwannabetypes :D

seriously - see yourself the way other's see you... :D

No more ugly talk - or i will beat youo senseless with my stinky shoe :D
 
Yeah no more ugly talk! I think you don't look bad at all! And on the inside (which is what counts!) you are beautiful! You are on the outside too! i didn't mean anything bad! But geeze we can't all be models!!:rolleyes:
 
even models aren't always gorgeous.,, my company does the photography for a bunch of catalogs and the retouchers are quite busy and will be employed for a long time.. .D because models are not always gorgeouos

I agree! That is make up! Thatis why i don't wear it most of the time. At least you know what i look like. Gorgeous, no, bot I am who I am!:eek:
 
Even make up can't help some people. Luckily the guys I'm attracted to are rarley beautiful men...lol. Hot, but not beautirific or anything special like that. Unless you count the one guy who was gloriously handsome that I married...but he turned out to be an asshole. So, there ya go. He'll need that superficial charm to get another woman to ever marry him...especially if I meet her and tell her what he's really like.
I still haven't called him...I'm totally pathetic.

Cals today:
Coffee: 100
tea w/ splenda: 0
egg beaters: 60
ff cottage cheese: 100
oreo snack pac: 100
bottle of water w/ crystal light: 5
Total: 365
Don't worry, its only 2pm here.

you arent' pathetic - this is cute.. it's like the days of iwan's life :D

don't let fear of rejection slow you down - if he says no - he says no - and we'll know he's a knucklehead who doesn't appreciate a good woman to have coffee with ... and you've had your share of knuckleheads :D If he says yes - well yippie :D

::lights a candle::
 
Maybe I'm not so afraid of hearing no. I think I'm more nervous that he'll say yes and then I'll have to go on a freakin date with him...lol. Now, you have to give it to me, that is pathetic. Where are the guys, I need a guy to weigh in on this.
 
Still no manly opinions?
Yah, I still havn't called...but he totally knows I asked for his number because his best friends wife knows. wow, this is like highschool. I better call him soon.
SO, I've finally done it. I've finally succeeded in losing so much weight I have become invisable. Well, I was always invisable in one respect, but now I'm diminutive. People literally look right past me. or over me for that matter. I was counted as being sick today because nobody could "see" me at my desk behind my privacy divider...lol. I walked out about 11am to tell somebody I was leaving for lunch and they were like "where have you been all morning?"
Time to buy platform shoes and get big hair. I guess being 5 feet tall does have its disadvantages.

I have a three day weekend! kinda! I do have a seminar to attend tomorrow...but I still have monday off! which should give me some free time to work out.

My numbers today:
*keep in mind I feel like I can't stop eating...lol*
Breakfast: 1/2 ww mini bagel (60), 1 tbsp ff cream cheese (30) 1 oz smoked salmon (70), coffee w/ creamer (90): total: 250
Lunch: lean cuisine (140), edimame (100), 1 oz smoked salmon (70): total: 310
Snack: sf nf vanilla chai (90):
so far today: 650, not too shabby I must say.

this is just making me smile...

so you go on a date with him - it's not a lifetime commitment - you aren't jumping over the broom and getting all marriaged up... it's a date - afew hours of both your lives -that might just suck - or it might just be swell - you never know til it happens... :D

Lemme find some boys to weigh in - my girls can do whatever the hell they want attitude might be clouding my judgement :D
 
alright, its not commitment that freaks me out. Its sitting across from someone and having them look and me (silently judging...) for whatever time frame we sit and stare. I'm just shy, I turn beat red at the drop of a hat.
 
now why would he judge you? do you have awful table manners? do you drool? do you eat your hair?

you are not unattractive...

being shy is fine - maybe he can make you feel so comfortable that you don't need to be shy... that it will be ok to be who you are.. shyness is just a bit of armor that we put on to protect ourselves (and as much as I am a loudmouth on here - I really am quite shy until I warm up to someone)

can i say it again - youo are not unattractive -
 
Okay okay okay... time for a guy to weigh in!

Short version: Call him... if he's worth anything, he'll be extremely flattered and you'll more than likely have a heck of a first date. If he's old fashioned, he may see it as aggression and may try to step up his game and take it from there... If he has a "frat boy mentality", then you'll know up front and you're definitely want to steer clear!

Long Version:
MTM&K was the first person to contact me... now mind you it was a different setting, we did meet online and it was actually in a chat room! when she started chatting me up, I thought it was agressive, but in a good way. Regardless of what they say, guys like being chased after...in the feminine sense of the term. We like it (whether we'll admit to it or not) when a woman will call us first, we do like to know when someone is interested! When it's left to the imagination, we may never get up the gall to call or make that first step ourselves (Raising hand from first hand experience). I think it's good for you to call him... if you don't reach out...who knows what you'll miss... and if you go into it, thinking that you're ugly, it will show through in your voice... no granted...we (men) may not be smart enough to realize this and just take it for shyness... but still, You've done an AWESOME job from what I've read! Have confidence in yourself (easier said than done, i know) but seriously... you have EVERYTHING to be proud of... I don't see how you could go wrong... even if things don't turn out to how you'd like them too... atleast you took the step... which will make the next time all the easier! But the way everyone is playing it..(from what you've said), I don't forsee it being a battle to get the guy to go out with you! Now you've got me hooked..I want to know what happens!
