Hey all,

26 yr old Taurus female here. Met this Cancer male at the gym...he's like 35/36 I think (found he was a Cancer through Facebook, never added him as a friend). Anyways he used to stare at me ALL THE TIME. I didn't bother to make a move, normally I like to wait and let the guys come to me. However I do have a friendly persona that makes me approachable.

Anyways, he finally said hello to me. I say Hi back. We introduced ourselves. Over the next few days we chatted a bit. OMG he was so sweet and kind and the way he looked at me I fell hard. Then he says, 'Would you like to go out for a drink sometime?' I (nervous as all hell) laughed and said 'Sure, maybe sometime. I'm really busy these days and need to check my schedule but I would! Anyways, gotta go but see ya tomorrow!' And I left cause I was in a hurry. I never got his number and I haven't given him mine. Regardless I made a point to make plans with him the very next day.

He has not come back to the gym since. This was 8 months ago....and I haven't stopped thinking of him since.

Can someone please tell me what I did wrong? I was nice, I was kind, I don't believe I made him uncomfortable. I said I WOULD like to go out sometime. I'm a friendly girl, I'm not s stuck up b*tch.

I am so disappointed cause he was such a nice and sweet man and I really feel I blew it. I feel really stupid and am even nervous to see him again. He was so kind and seem genuinly interested in me.

What did I do??

And if I ever run into him again....WHAT DO I DO?

Thanks all. SIGH....

Not a Cancer, but the way you couched your reply sounded like this: "IF I can fit you into my busy schedule, I will pencil you in." Might have unintentionally hurt the fellows feelings, felt like a rebuff. You knew it wasn't, he didn't.

Crap....thanks so far guys.

So if I run into him again what do I do? I never meant to say NO I don't want to hang out.

Well, don't worry about it. Maybe he has changed his mind. IF you see him again, just start all over with the "HI, hello"

You probably hurt his feelings. If you see him and still want to go out, when you see him just approach him, strike up a conversation, ask where he's been, then tell him you would still like to do drinks if he's down. If you do that, and he likes you, look out baby!!
