He Went To Pick A Girl Up For A Date And She Was Busy Hooking Up With Another Guy, So He Awkwardly Waited Around On Her Couch
This 18-year-old guy met a girl the same age as him over the summer, and they first connected via a dating website.
They got along wonderfully online, and they then noticed they would be attending the exact same college come fall.
They went out together on a first date, and they ended up having a ton in common. He says that this girl is drop-dead gorgeous, and he couldn’t believe that she was even on a dating site at all.
Anyway, as they kept talking, she admitted to him that she was completely “playing the field” and still dating multiple guys at once.
“I understood that; it makes sense that a girl as cool and beautiful as her would have many guys who want to be with her,” he explained.
“We saw each other three times before college started, and on that last time, she was again upfront with me that she does want to keep seeing me, but she also wants to have as much fun as she can while she’s still single. I didn’t ask questions, but I knew what she meant.”
On their first day of college classes, they spent some time together, and she questioned him about why he hadn’t made any moves on her yet.
It made him anxious that she bothered asking that, and he said he didn’t want to rush into anything with her.
Well, she replied that it was adorable of him to want to take his time but that she was sleeping with all of the guys she was speaking with.

“I kind of figured that she did, but hearing her say it, and that it was all of them, made my heart sink just a little bit,” he said.
“I know that we aren’t dating or exclusive in any way, so she’s perfectly free to [do what she wants], but it was still a little bit of a shock to hear.”
A month went by, and he kept dating her and also hanging out with her in more casual settings with other people.
He even ended up at a few parties where she hooked up with other guys right in front of him, yet he still wanted to date her, even though it made him almost cry.
But, last week, something occurred that has made him question if dating this girl is the best decision for him.
“I went to her building to pick her up for a date,” he added. “The date where I was going to ask her to officially be my girlfriend.”
“And I could hear her…with another guy…Granted, I was about 10 minutes early in picking her up…and waited outside the door. About 20 minutes later, one of her roommates comes home and lets me in, and I sit on their couch to wait for her.”
“By the time she’s done, it’s about 30 minutes after the time we agreed upon for me to pick her up. By the time they actually come out of the bedroom, she’s about 45 minutes late.”
As soon as she saw him sitting on her couch, she apologized to him at length for forgetting about their date.
He thought she was being sincere, but he felt really numb. He put a smile on and tried to pretend everything was ok, even though he felt super hurt.
He then still took her out for a date, which he admits was incredibly uncomfortable. She only added to the awkward factor by still apologizing to him.
“We ended the date with me dropping her off at her place, sharing a very passionate kiss, and her asking if I wanted to stay the night so she could “make it up to me,” he continued.
“I declined, saying I was tired, and she grabbed my hand…and said, “Are you sure?” And I paused and said, “I just really don’t think it would be right to tonight”, and then went home. That was on Sunday, and we’ve seen each other twice since then, both times just in casual hangout settings in the cafeteria and a mutual friend’s apartment, and continued to text, but we haven’t brought it up.”
“Like I said numerous times already, I had made my peace with her [hooking up] with other guys while she’s single. But after that night, seeing her in our group hangouts with guys who I know she’s [slept] with most of them at least once, it just hits differently now. I do still really, really like her, but I don’t know how I should move forward from this.”
Do you think he should move on or keep dating her?
