Search Results: awkward silence

i met this guy two weeks ago. we basically ended up hooking up, and he asked to take me out on a date but i told him im not looking to date anybody. a week after though we ended up talking (text messaging) because he knows one of my friends and he asked about me a few times and I don't know i just ended up deciding to talk to him since he seemed great. he said we can still be friends and lately weve been planning on hanging out.

anyway today was the third time he suggested for us to facetime each other since the last time i saw him was still the first night we met. i really only facetime my closest friends who are girls because im comfortable enough with them. i look really ugly especially on camera and other than that i think im gonna be awkward and i very much prefer talking in person.

im just wondering if this type of behavior turns guys off. i told him the truth that i dont really do facetime, its not my thing, and i look like shit atm... he still said something about complimenting me and how we need to facetime cos he wants to actually talk. after i said no to facetiming i just brought up when we'll be seeing each other again, trying not to appear disinterested and i do genuinely wanna see him again. i wanna facetime as well but then again im insecure about it.

talking in person is different and certainly easier. i have time to get ready and feel comfortable and confident about myself, and no awkard silences or anything. even with my exes who i was with long term i never liked facetiming, i only used audio when we called each other.
