The new guy...

OK, here goes. Met a new guy. He's Indian, got a great job, and is funny...what's the catch? If you had asked me a week ago, I would have said there wasn't one...today...
OK, here's the story:
Met online, exchanged emails, then phone numbers(all within 2 days), then began talking and texting almost every day. Now, I am no fool. I did not ONCE initiate conversation with him. He called or texted me EVERY day...until...the day he didn't. He didn't call or text for 2 days...I of course, just let it go. He would call when he was ready to. And he did. Called me 2 days later asking how I was. He even apologized for not keeping in touch with me for the last couple of days--he was swamped at work. Everything was back to happyville. Then we were supposed to go out on Monday. Of course ICE STORM 2011 hit and everyone ran for cover. Although we were supposed to go out Monday and the storm didn't technically hit until Tuesday, but whatever...he was supposed to go out of town, but that got postponed because of the weather...yet he never let me know that he was still in town...OK, moving on.
We continued to talk/text for the next couple of days and HE told me that he wanted to watch the Superbowl together. HE told me to put some plans together. This was all HIS idea. (hope you are getting my point).
So guess what? I didn't hear from him for 2 days again...Then a text on Saturday. Now, I did break a rule. I did ask him if we were still on for Sunday. I know I shouldn't have, but a girl has to make plans doesn't she??? The response: "Um, yeah, what time were you thinking?" What time? Its the Superbowl, how about that time??!! I responded that we should hook up before the game started and that I didn't care where we watched it, that it was up to him.(bad move?)
NO RESPONSE. Until 11:00AM Sunday morning:
"Ugh, not feeling well."
Ok, I get it. So I did what any normal girl would do to make a man feel bad. I lied.
My response: "Aww man! That sucks! I was going to surprise you with some party passes to the game, but since your not feeling well, I understand taht you cant make it. Hope you feel better soon! And look for me on the jumbo tron!"
Ok, maybe in hindsight not the best move, but geez, blow me off twice?? A little lie is worth it...
So, here I am again, single(well, I guess I always was), and back on the prowl...

UPDATE: He texted me Monday afternoon to see how the game was...I am going to wait at least 2 days before I respond....I am a busy girl after all....
