Hi Daisy,

Oh my goodness, there is so much in here that you have not surrendered on. You really need to work on it!

I get the feeling you haven't continued reading the book as soon as you got a bite. You basically did not let him take the lead for anything. (I hope when he offered to meet you somewhere closer because of the traffic you thanked him very much with a big smile for his thoughtfulness?) These things will make him pull away because they are very controlling and/or demanding:

3. I said "you haven't even tried to kiss me".
4. I made the comment "it's funny how we separated to get away from each other and now we are looking for a place to go to be together again".
5. I was like WTF? We just ML and then you pull away and won't even give me a kiss?.
6. I told him not to treat me like a booty call and then drove away.
7. I ask him if he wants to get together again.
8. I said we would need to talk about the subject before the next time.
9. I get upset and we talk on the phone for awhile.
10. He couldn't talk long and I got more upset.
11. Later on I texted him and asked if he was mad at me.
12. I was talking about my b-day plans and was kind of hinting around.
13. I asked him later and he said "don't push it". I said "I'm not trying to push you. It's my birthday and I am going to go out and have fun with or without you.
14. I said Since when do you care about what other people think?".
15. I said " I need to know soon so I can make other plans"
16. then texted him to let him know that I could hang out in the early evening and that I wanted to go to dinner and then play mini golf or something goofy and fun like that.


This is the one thing you surrendered on:

No this was not GAL. This was manipulative, controlling and pushy.
