How can i tell if this grown man likes me or has a crush on me? iin?
I am 28 years old now.
I have been out of the dating scene for about two years or a little more now.
I am a single mom with a 4 year old daughter.
which is besides the point....
I am totally "dumb" and oblivious to when any male has a crush on me or likes me.
I guess I have pts (post traumatic disorder) from having been physically, verbally abused by my x. it is pretty severe condition that I have to the point where I genuenly question myself "What would a successful man with a Phd or Master's degree want with me?" or "I am not skinny enough or good looking enough for him."
I met this man on the weekend. His first name is Jeff. (I met him in San Diego through my uncle) and he is 39 years old.
Jeff is really smart, nice, handsome(OH SO HANDSOME!), tall, muscular, successful, owns a huge house down the street from the beach, and he gets paid to go to school to get his Phd. he already has his Masters.
Saturday night I went out with Jeff and some friends, and my drunk uncle. We partied at some bar. I didn't talk to Jeff for maybe two hours after meeting him. At first I just always have this I hate you already attitude because I have a deep trust issue with trusting people because of ...well a lot of person reasons and the way i grew up, and the abuse my x put me through. It's a bunch of reasons why i am the way I am.
To make this short and to the point, we ended up talking a little at the bar. Having a beer together, then going to my uncle's house, and partying there. By partying I mean dancing with friends to crazy daft punk, Mia music and etc.
i did not dance at the bar or club because I tend to get really shy and I hide myself a lot, though i am really fun person when you get to know me.
When we got to my uncle's I just let lose, by putting my hair down, changing into short pants, and dancing like a maniac throwing my hair around in the air. I guess this totally got Jeff's attention, and he danced with me and talk for to me all night. Later in the evening we sat on the couch to rest, and he put his hand on my leg. Then he put his arm around me. He left around 5am, but was going to spend the night with me but my uncle ruined my chance with having a night with Jeff because my uncle was so drunk and wouldn't even get me a damn comforter for the pull out bed, so Jeff was like "Ya not sleeping here unless you got a comforter" I was like "FK!" in my head of course to myself.
I was SOOO MAD at my uncle!
When Jeff decided to leave, he kissed me.
I know this sound so stupid or dumb, but I still haven't any idea if he likes me a lot.
My uncle and our friends told me that Jeff recently got out of a 9 year marriage, but that he does want a relationship and does want to get remarried. Jeff does not know that I know this about him, because I never brought it up to him. I just think that if he want me to know he will tell me about it.
So anyone thinks this man might have a crush on me?
It's been one day and he hasn't texted me or called me.
I did text him and asked him to email or photo text me a photo of me with my uncle from that night, but to no avail, he still has not contacted me or responded back to me.
I am so nervous and upset at the same time. I really like this man and its already hurting me to not hear from him :(
ps: I may be moving to San Diego within a year or less for a job offer I got while I was there. I can't say no to such an offer I got. I will be making so much more money and will be able to afford my own two bedroom apartment, or beach house.
Saturday night when Jeff and I were talking we discovered that we literally have everything in common, We both love the same music, we both are cat lovers, we both like the same food, we both love the same activities. It is just insane and crazy i have never met anybody that has been so compatible with me. I have butterflies in my stomach. I don't think I have felt this way about anybody in over 8 years now.
Please tell me what you think that if it sounds like he likes me too?
what i can do to make him like me more when i go back to visit in two months, and especially for when I move there. I am going to see a lot more of him when I move there. He wants to move to live on the beach too, and he even said we should be room mates but I have already decided against that because I like him, I don't want to be "the friend" or the "the room mate". So I am just going to end up getting my own two bedroom small beach house for myself and my daughter.
I appreciate all advice
and opinions
please be kind about my situation because I am such a nervous wreck about this man. He's got me acting like I use to act when i was in love and 16. Oh GOD I am acting like a teenager! i feel like an idiot!
