Re: Help--interacting with people

Maybe I'm just wrong but somehow joking about men's difficulty in understanding women seems like it's a bit off topic in a thread in which a woman has asked for advice in dealing with an awkward situation involving a guy...
No, he is completely clueless as to how his words come across. Yes, I think he likes me and is incapable of expressing it properly. I think of him as being emotionally like a 15 year old boy. But he's not a 15 year old boy. He's an adult man who is into whips!
SG, your description sounds exactly like a 15 year old with a crush but if he's on his 3rd divorce things just don't quite fit.
But it's sometimes hard, if I'm not ready with a response to his weirdness and I can't predict what he's gonna say, so I wind up being silent. We'll see. I'll let you know if something of note happens.
Good luck! I think being silent/ignoring is not a bad option until the opportunity to say something really presents itself.
