Ok, I don't know what I was on when I came up with that subject heading.
I know this isn't one of those personal help forums or anything, but I sort of got myself into a situation last night and I'd like some people's opinions who have some life experience.
There's this guy at work (Wal-Mart) in his 30s. He's married (to a fairly large cranky woman) and he has kids. He was also once divorced. Out of the blue last night he asked me if I wanted to go out for coffee on Saturday and I said yes because I didn't want to be a jerk and blow him off and make him feel rejected and I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. I don't know if he meant as just friends or anything, but I'm 19 and he's in his 30s. He's not the kind of people I hang around with. I had to give him my cell number because I knew my dad would freak out if he called the house. (Red lights are flashing at this point. NOT a good sign.) I feel really uncomfortable about this and I really don't want to go, but I already said I would. Should I just go on Saturday and let that be it, or somehow cancel and risk having him treat me like a piece of crap at work?
Why can't it ever be the guys I want to ask me out for coffee be the one's who ask? Instead those ones just stare at me when I walk into Tim Hortons in the morning, or point and giggle and then duck out of the way as if they're not doing anything when I turn around. I would expect people in their mid 20s to act more mature.
