You feel how you feel. <br /><br />He's sensitive and bummed that you were not able to go with him and you made the point to tell him you were going on a date with someone else. <br /><br />You better get back in the game and asked him how the soccer game went, or better yet find an activity or an event that you and your friends are going to and ask if he wants to go? Something with music, concert, theater, musical or choir would be good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8936537874847344814.post-30254836057510491202011-10-19T17:52:59.415-06:002011-10-19T17:52:59.415-06:00The best dating advice I've ever gotten is fro...The best dating advice I've ever gotten is from Alma 38:12 - "Use boldness, but not overbearance."

I say, call and flutter about wanting a raincheck or something and invite him to do something. He feels like you already shut him down once so if you want a chance, you've got to make it happen.

NEVER tell a guy specifically that you already have a date, just say that you're already busy and say you're available a different night, or earlier that day. Once he hears you've already got a date, in his mind all he thinks is that you're unavailable and uninterested.Jorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15317236656590522354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8936537874847344814.post-31209616826976713102011-10-15T14:24:50.391-06:002011-10-15T14:24:50.391-06:00I have one minor addition to the Coquette's el...I have one minor addition to the Coquette's eloquent advice. It sounded like you told him you already had a date for the night he was asking you out. In my experience, this is a bad idea. It's not that guys assume ladies never get asked on dates for nights they might ask them, but when you specifically say, "I already have a date for that night." you are probably/possibly sending the message of, "Look, I'm in demand and ha ha, I already have a date that night." Boys usually don't like to be reminded that there are other men out there vying for your favor. I usually worded it, "I'm sorry, I already have plans for that night, but I would love to do something with you some other night." Or even, "I'm available [whatever the next day you're available]." You might have scared him off a little with the telling him you already had a date, because there are some females that will lie about having dates to avoid going on dates with unwanted males. Guys are in constant fear when asking a girl out that she does not actually want to go on a date with them. Anywho, don't know if any of that made sense, but this guy could need some reassurance in the form of you inviting him to something casual ("Me and my roomies are making sugar cookies, want to come over and help decorate?"), or just starting up a real life or text conversation with him.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11191273585364315666noreply@blogger.com
