Search Results: acted desperate

I joined an online dating site (im 26, female, aussie) and got emails from an aussie man for about 2 weeks. I replied very little as I got a feeling he was too comfortable already, asking me to come to his place to watch a movie. I got the feeling we wanted different things so let it go.

Then he started emailing me again, but stopped asking me to come to his place - just talked about normal things again. After a week and a half of emails I let him have my number.

A few days later he called me and we had an hour long chat. It was great and interesting. He asked if I'd like to catch up sometime but I said I still wasn't sure .

Then after 3 weeks of phonecalls and really getting along like a house on fire, he sent roses, chocolates, perfume and a teddy to my work (I mentioned where I worked when he asked). I was won over by this & agreed to meet him in public.

We met at a restaurant/bar and by the time I got there he was already tipsy. He bought drinks for us both all night and when I offered to buy he wouldn't let me. we talked for an hour and a half and then had a kiss. It was nice.

The date went on for 3 hours in total, he was very enigmatic and energetic. When I felt myself getting tipsy I excused myself and thanked him for a good night. He put me in a cab, but not before asking me to please come home with him to hang out more.

I went home and felt relieved that I kept my boundaries. But then he kept calling and I gave in, I let him come to my place. Regretfully we slept together. I was drunk and he was drunk - it wasn't special. Anyway the next morning he bounced out of bed and seemed high strung. He left at about 10am and I figured I would never ever hear from him again.

He texted me almost immediately and apologized profusely for not letting me just go home alone. He told me he was so smashed he hardly remembered anything. Anyway I felt pretty low but let it be. He asked me if he had 'f&cked things up' and I said no...

Anyway, days of texting passed, he called once or twice...it just wasn't the same...he seemed really stressed when he would call - talking about how his brother is causing troubles again (his brother seems to be immature - part of a gang or something in sydney) and that his brothers friend had lost his 'prime-mover' - a v expensive truck (he has a logistics company). Then I pressed him to find out if he was into me or not cause I don't want excuses - but he told me he was - he just had serious sh*t going on. then he told me they found the truck - with a tip off from his bro - so his bro may have set it up. Anyway it all feels off between us now, I kept pressing him and now he's irritated at me and Haven't heard from him in 3 days after a little text war. so in 2.5 weeks we had one date, a few calls and texts.

I think I acted too desperate after we slept together. Was too keen on another date. I regret that a lot.
